Newby Oil Question

Ok I just got my new spanking vRS (well new to me anyway!)

Its 3 months old 4.7k... I will check the oil when I fill up.

Now, what I want to know is, if its low, can I just put any of the approved oils into it?

Any hints?... what are the best oils?... full synthetic?

Search in the FAQ section as there is a bit on the oil spec needed. The PD engines need an oil that meets a certain spec.

Upgrade to 5E0919605N and glove box unit CP question

simon84 · 10 minutes ago10 min

Hi, I want to upgrade the screen in my octavia to 5E0919605N. I know you can plug this in and it will work but that the app button wont unless i upgrade to 3.x.x which I cant. I was wondering has anyone used any online services to remove the CP as I can source the screen and unit in the glovebox for a really good price from a breaks locally but there isn't many places in Ireland that offer retro fit services. any information would be great

Scala rear reversing camera retrofit

Joe692 · 27 January, 20251 yr

Managed to retrofit the a reverse camera to my Scala the other day, cost just under £50 with delivery from Aliexpress. No coding required, worked straight away when selecting reverse gear. Most difficult part was removing the old handle and feeding the wire through the rubber conductor in to the boot. I’ve added some photos which may help anyone else attempting to do this. I routed my wire behind the glovebox, up the pillar and over the top of passenger side doors. The co

Electric passenger window stuck at bottom
Skoda Fabia Mk1 (1999-2007)

Electric passenger window stuck at bottom

LesCM19 · Sunday at 19:462 days

We were lowering the passenger front window which went all the way to the bottom, accompanied by a horrible clattering. That was it stuck down, any attempts to raise it just produced the rattling. Luckily it was in the middle of a heatwave. Took the door card off and motor but can only lift the window up 2" to try to get to the clamps. There's a cable with a nipple visible loose inside the door by the locking button which is draped over a pulley (see photo, sorry about the socks). Any suggesti

On a journey from Cotswolds to Mid Wales (109 miles), I achieved 69mpg. Anyone else achieving similar returns? Journey was part motorway - M5, Gloucester to Worcester South - then Kidderminster, Bridgenorth, Shrewsbury. Cheers

APR Stage 2 - LPFP pressure drops to 4.6 bar under load / Intermittent P0089 error (N290)

APR Stage 2 - LPFP pressure drops to 4.6 bar under load / Intermittent P0089 error (N290)

Michalson · 8 June8 Jun

Hi everyone, I am looking for some insight regarding a fueling issue on my Skoda Octavia 3 RS (2.0 TSI, EA888 Gen 3, CHHA engine, 169kW). The car is currently running an APR Stage 2 tune (ECU + TCU). The issue first appeared right after flashing APR Stage 1 at around 74k km, and now at 86k km, it has become more frequent (sometimes 3x a day, sometimes it gives peace for 2 weeks). The car drives absolutely fine, pulling hard from the bottom without any issues. It never enters limp mode, and there
