  3. took mine out for a blast before it gets too cold , filled tank with shell v power £12,did about 40+ miles on shropshire b roads in beautifull sunshine, what a great afternoon :sun:
  4. Looking back at the SPecs when i ordered my car ,they are as follows MPG urban 60.1 Extra urban 83.1 combined 74.3 250 nm torque 0 -- 62 in 11.4 secs 105 PS , that is the basis on which i bought my car( now I know i will not get that MPG ,but to Pass EU directive 99/94 they must) now I expect that after the FIX, Skoda /VW will retest the cars and prove the same specs, and publish the data before they fix mine, if they cannot match or better the specs then i have been missold and will sue
  5. we all know the answer to this ----MONEY---- well we can hope so It seems a bit more than HOnest John says , not EGR anD DPF , injectors seem like a lot more to me also I got the extra clean Greenline , i think they owe me more than an explanation and a fix!
  6. before anyone puts a spanner on my car, i want to know what effect it will have on BHP / torque and mpg so i can compare with quoted figures when I bought the car if new figs are lower, then we can talk compensation before they touch my car not after, otherwise forget it there not doing any fix to my car!
  7. It seems the vin checker is not upto date, says no recall on 2012 octy greenline 2 does anyone at VAG no whats going on or what to do about it
  8. it would appear theI VIN checker is useless put in the VIN of my Octy 2012 1.6 tdi Greenline , and it says no recall, what bull**** we all know its got the EA189 engine , I think no one at VAG group has a clue as to what to do If after recall work I lose any engine perforance or Mpg I will sue
  9. just got my mine back from MOT 0.03 with 19K on clock (2012 Octy greenline) garge tried to sell me extra engine flush treatment for £30, remember no cleaning additives in supermarket fuel! as others have said use one of the additives get it hot take it in for mot, and use good fuel
  10. Hope you all like, had my bonny for 11 years now just love it
  11. Also a Freesat box can be programmed to watch the freesat from sky channels giving you the best of both
  12. Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy entry Earth Harmless revised Mostly harmless
  13. Taken from Octavia Brochure Aug 2012 Hatch 585 litres seats up or 1455 litres seats down Estate 605 litres seats up or 1655 litres seats down I did not think an Extra £1300 for the estate was worth while for the extra 20 litres of storage space, and the seats down figures make no sense at all but in the price range the octy has biggest boot for price bigger than many larger more expenive cars its great not worrying if i can get all the cases or shopping in the boot
  14. I seem to have a rattle from the passenger seat belt when its not being used just the buckle rattling against the hard plastic on the pillar, I'm trying to figure out whats the best soft material to fit to the pillar to stop rattle .
  15. Moggy my 1 st car Grey 1000cc 1962 4 door , passed my test init , No road tax these days , and vvvvvv cool :love:
