Thought I would introduce myself briefly. I'm a Brit who has made the move to NZ. Just bought my first Skoda today. Have driven loads of them over the years inc a VRS on the autobahn and a 4x4 on a serious off road course, but never actually owned one. I'm lucky enough to have been to Mlada Boleslav (not sure about the spelling). New Zealand loves its auto's so my (new to me) car is a lowly 2009 Octavia hatch 77kW. So I'll be looking for chipping advice soon.

Cheers Ant

Travel assist retrofit

JustOxy · 22 December, 20214 yr

Hello, I am gathering information about possibility of retrofitting travel assist (or at least correct adaptive lane guidance) on my octavia RS 2021. I do not have: Columbus, traffic sign recognition, side assist. I do have: ACC, DSG, simple lane assist (lane departure prevention). I have tried to code adaptive lane assist (point intervention->early in A5). It keeps the car in lanes perfectly but expectedly every 10-15s asks to put my hands onto steering wheel while they're stil

Skoda Octavia Mk 3 2.0 TDI 150, 2016, Mileage: 270 K km. My Skoda has been making some strange shakings since February. Around the time the engine heat hits 90 degrees, which is normal running temperature, the car shakes harshly, sometimes smoothly, sometimes just once, sometimes 2 or 3, or more, with irregular laps in the following 1 or 2 minutes. During these shakes, the rpm responds and it goes up and down, as I try to speed up to compensate it. After this, the car runs smoothly despite its m

Intermittent AC problem

Vidde · 3 September, 20253 Sep

I've been the owner of a 2021 Scala for almost a year and a half by now, 45000km on the clock. I thought I would post this here to see if anyone have experienced something similar or have a hunch what could be the problem. During a couple of seemingly random days in the last 5 months, the AC has just not produced any cold air at all. The display for the air con or the main infotainment doesnt show anything unusual. When the issue have occured, toggling the AC off and on again, or even restartin

Octavia II Gearbox Drain / Fill Plug

-mike- · Wednesday at 15:364 days

Hey all, Managed to get under my partners car at the weekend to service it and change the oil. Whilst there I was quite taken by how clean the engine was, but there was a patch of what looked like oil on the undertray. This was later discovered to be coming (I believe) from the gearbox drain plug. The car has had a new clutch, flywheel and replacement box in the last twelve months and so I can only assume there's an issue with the drain plug or a seal. Looking really closely at the drain plug
