Final checks in preparation of warranty coming to an end

Featured Replies

I can't believe I would've owned my vrs for three years come march :eek:

So, in preparation for the end of the warranty I want to do some final checks on the car to make sure everything is as it should be. I have never had any leaky door problems and check these regularly because of the known issues others have had. I had the stutter fix done soon after getting the car.

The car drives like a dream, so nothing is sticking out to me. Anything else I need to check up on before it's too late?

If nothing stands out I doubt there's anything worth getting looked at. :)

A vag com scan perhaps would be worthwhile - I should have it on me come the IOW invasion (I do hope to come)

It's a vRS, Yes?

Just check on the back, lovey, if it says FABIA, then you've not got a proper vRS.

Take it back and ask for a real one. You can tell if it's real, as it'll have OCTAVIA written on the back.

HTH:D

Now that is an interesting thought. I really would try that just to see if it worked with the dealer. Unfortunetly I plan to investigate getting something even more exciting than an Octavia, sorry, a real vRS. :cool:

Get it MOT'd upto 4 weeks before the warranty runs out, that way any issues can be sorted before the warranty.

There goes another rib!

You have done well to have no leaks in 3 years, mine took 3 attempts to fix but sorted now,

That is good advice getting your MOT done early, mine is an 06 like yours and nothing has gone wrong apart from the Bl00dy leak.

That's a really good idea, thanks :thumbup:
