Octavia 1 2004 1.4 (60K miles). Has a "ticking" engine sound, louder on starting.I am told this is a common VW/SKODA problem.......EGR valve.Any advice on replacing or is this something you live with.There are no other engine problems.

depends where it is coming from - if it is the rear of the drivers side then it is the carbon vapour solenoid and is nothing to worry about

Face vents not operational despite calibration

Face vents not operational despite calibration

jtj321 · 1 minute ago1 min

Hi .As the title really,no air comes through the face vents despite trying a recalibration several times. Is this something an interactive ( right description?) code reader can check? If the flap actuator has failed I shudder to think how inaccessible that might be! Thanks.

Can't open driver's window without holding onto button

Murmansk · 15 May, 20251 yr

65 Reg Octavia estate All my other windows work ok but on the driver's door window I have to hold down the button until the window is fully open. A quick press of the button closes it just fine but opening is the problem. There's no info in the manual that helps I can't help thinking I've had this problem before and somehow solved the problem but I can't remember how. My online research suggested holding the button down until it opened fully and continue holding for a few seconds, then closi

Lost 29-Byte ABS Long Coding — 2014 Škoda Octavia 1.8 TSI

Hello, I accidentally ran a master initialization adaptation reset inside my ABS module using OBDeleven, and it completely cleared out my long coding profile. My module is now showing a persistent 'Control module not coded' fault. My diagnostic device identifies the blank block template as a 29-byte structure. Could someone with access to an MQB MK100 offline software calculator help me generate my matching configuration code? Here is my hardware and chassis data: Vehicle: 2014 Škoda Octavia Mk3

it had the TV tuner like you got in the L&K MK3 Superb. It's almost bothering me enough to think about swapping (although Octavia boot is more than big enough for me). Is this something you really appreciate or something you don't use that often. My one concern would be parking up and watching TV for a few hours and then the car not starting. Is battery drain a problem? Is it possible to upgrade the Columbus in the Octy to get a tuner. And is the aerial in the front windscreen noticeable?
