Octavia VRS - possible blow in exhaust

Followers

14 November, 201114 yr

I have a 2004 plate VRS and when started from cold it appears as though there is a slight blow from the manifold. This noise only lasts for about 20 seconds before it completely stops. Does anyone have any advice on this? cheers

Sounds like the secondary air intake, nothing to worry about

Could be your SAI pump. Search the Octavia forum for Secondary Air Injection - loads of posts about it.

Exhaust gas getting into the coolant
Skoda Octavia Mk3 (2013 - 2020)

Exhaust gas getting into the coolant

Marski · Tuesday at 19:361 day

Hi, I've recently sold my MK2 and bought a MK3. I'm having issues with the exhaust gas getting into the coolant. I need to find out what is causing this. Is it likely to be the EGR or something more serious like a blown head gasket or a crack in the block? I've only had this car for 5 weeks so am looking to approach the dealer I bought it from. They only gave a 30 day warranty. They already had it in for a week and were supposed to repair this but they haven't done it.

Slightly loose gear knob

MonkeyBoy2283 · 18 hours ago18 hr

I have a 2020 manual and I have a slight play with the gear knob at the end (please excuse the euphemism), I am able to twist the knob slightly, its not so loose that it feels like its coming off, but the main stick is not moving at all its just the end, so it’s not the actual gearbox. Is this normal or something that can be tightened, as I can not find a picture of the inside of the Mk4, in the Mk3 it seems to be held in place with a metal clip, so if the Mk4 is made the same way, I’m guessin

Windscreen washers not working in both front and end
Skoda Fabia Mk3 (2014-2021)

Windscreen washers not working in both front and end

ebay · Tuesday at 21:221 day

Hi Folks, Both the front and rear window washers on my MK3 Fabia not working but window wipers do operate. Google it and go through the last posts but no clue. 1) No pump sound 2) My friend help to test the fuses no. 22, 27, 31 and 46, are all fine 3) At pump, the voltage around 11.x V but it will dropped to around 0.5v when turn on the wipers 4) The washer reservoir is full 5) The car battery replaced last summer with normal 12.6V Any idea please, Many thanks in advance
