No sense wire fitted to the negative battery terminal so no coding for the battery. Thank you for the response

I have just fitted a new battery to my Octavia 2010 1.6 TDI Greenline non stop/start. I have plugged in VCDS and cannot recode as not a option or am I missing something . Is it right that the battery does not need re-coding on this model. ??. Ta Mark

Yep had the car raised and used a spirit level to get it totally level. I drained it of exactly 1 liter and only took 1 liter to refill. Not sure what else to do.

Anyone on here know I cannot be the only one to change gearbox oil.

Ok drained gearbox oil today and measures approx 1 liter. So refilled and only took 1 Liter before it was coming out of filler hole. So it has done 140,000 with 1 liter and refilled with same amount. Why do Skoda quote 1.9 L and how do i get the extra .9 liter in ??.

Spoke to a Skoda dealer today apparently workshop tech details show it as 1.9 L

Ta yes manual thinking 3 litres should be enough.

I need to change the gearbox oil on my 145,000 mile 1.6 TDI and cannot seem to find info on how much i need . I am well aware it is sealed for life by VW but still want to refresh. Thanks Mark
