Hi all

After testin a VRS Octavia Estate two weeks ago I am glad to say I have just put in an order to pick one up for jan 2012.Didn,t think i,d have to wait so long for one but the dealer said production time is Nov so might as well wait for the 12plate.I,m currently drivin an import Legacy B4 with plenty of poke but with the price of juice need sumthing with more miles for the money.And i hve to say was quite amazed with the 30min testdrive-comfortable and good handling very torquey and alround a nice place to be.It,s gonna be a long seven months,but plenty of time to plan mods and stylin.

keyfob misbehaving seriously

somean49 · Sunday at 20:052 days

Octy 2 1.4TSI ESTATE CAXA Quite uncertain where to enter this question. The keyfob#1 has started to cause serious problems with the car alarm system. So far keyfob#2 is working with no problem. Car alarm starting randomly and only disconnecting the battery helped. Yesterday the alarm kept sounding/flashing even when the engine was running - undrivable. Is there a home cure whereby I can remap/reset the key fob? My very helpful auto sparks is unable to help

Hi, I've got a 2015 octavia scout mk3, manual 2.0 diesel, with 135,000 miles. It's service is due. It's looking expensive! In the last service there were some advisories.

Octavia 2 Dsg not changing gear.

kenbo · 1 hour ago1 hr

I thought I would post about this issue where my car was holding onto third gear, initially on a random basis. I could move the lever to manual and change up as normal. There were no codes and when my mechanic tried reading live data, the car was changing normally. I tried posting on Facebook but all doom and gloom, mechatronics faulty, clutch gone, etc. My car is now 18 years old any of those repairs effectively mean scrapping the car. I had read somewhere that the gearbox takes a signal from

Flat Battery in Key Fob - Warning

TheAardvark · Monday at 20:331 day

My recent (non-Skoda) cars have given dashboard warnings when the battery in the key fob runs down. This gives the driver the opportunity to change the battery and to keep the key functional. The battery in my Superb's key fob recently ran down, and it went from fully operational (working the button "plip" as well as the keyless entry) to completely flat during the course of a day at work. No warnings were displayed. I was unable to plip the car open, and had to walk to a shop, purchase a ne
