Just about to purchase an Mk1 Octavia VRS to tinker with and also use a motorway runner up and down to Glasgow from Newcastle. Opted for the Mk1 because of the 1.8 20v engine and no other reason as I do like to modify things pretty heavily- I run Modified Motors, a car and scene news website and Facebook page so will be using it as something of a project car for our fans and viewers along with a with a bit of a workhorse truding up and down to Glasgow.

I'm going to be asking ALOT of questions along the way so I apologise in advance lol

Apologise? For asking questions? Why? So long as you've researched the available knowledge first, any questions are more than welcome!

And welcome to Brisky too, also and as well.

Outback going, what next?

Aspman · Monday at 11:235 days

After dropping a wodge on the Outback for a new battery only for the tailgate issues to immediately recur and funnily enough for a internet search to suddenly (wasn't before) flag that there is a persistent and long standing Subaru issue with a parasitic battery drain via the telematics module. Basically the car continually tries to phone home and drains the battery, the tailgate control module is acutely sensitive to voltage meaning that if the car has sat for more than a day (sometime less) th

Faulty "Faulty Light" detector

Faulty "Faulty Light" detector

GrahamM · 23 hours ago23 hr

A while ago, a car parked behind mine decided to spontaneously combust, melting my rear bumper and the outsides of the light clusters, plus scorching the hatchback. The light bulbs themselves weren't damaged and still worked, as did my aftermarket reversing sensor system, none of the wires were melted. I got a garage to replace the bumper, hatchback and light plastics, but I'm having a problem with the "faulty light" detector as, whenever I turn on the lights, the bulb symbol on the instrume

Wobbly exhaust?
Skoda Fabia Mk2 (2007-2014)

Wobbly exhaust?

GrahamM · 36 minutes ago36 min

Unrelated (hopefully!) to my faulty light problem, in the past few days I think the tone of my exhaust has changed and it sounds deeper. Whilst I was fiddling around with the lights, I gave the exhaust a push and noticed that it was swinging from side to side. Is it supposed to do this?! If not, what might the problem be?

Hi. Just see that my 2023 skoda sportline karoq 19 inch wheels 19 inch. Sagittarius I believe? One of the covers is missing. Unsure if has been missing long and wanted your take on whether it has been stolen or has just fell off due to bad clips or design flaws. See photo of good wheel and the trim removed. UK right hand drive. Passenger rear. I think this is the missing piece? https://www.skoda-parts.com/spare-part/57a601169cfl8-wheel-cover-skoda-45385.html Not the cheapest. And a quite b
