Rear bumper protection.

18 May, 201412 yr

Thinking of buying this : http://www.rearguards.co.uk/index.php?app=gbu0&ns=prodshow&ref=RBP242&sid=te63492wgc436z58m0k32y79hmj364tn

It is stated to be for the 2007/2008 model. My vRS is a 2012 FL. Is the profile of the top of the rear bumper different on the FL?

The protector advertised as being for the for the FL is smaller (and costs more!).

Looks good them. I might get one to stop the dogs claws damaging the bumper.are the estate ones the same also?

This looks to be for Estate VRS : http://www.rearguards.co.uk/index.php?app=gbu0&ns=prodshow&ref=RBP398&sid=9h50s7pm535ynd2u08o9r9thgo1c063i

Looks pretty good. I have the nylon/plastic one from Skoda on my Scout and it looks knackered after 4 years of use.

Can anyone answer my original query? Is the profile of the top of the rear bumper different on the vRS MKII FL as compared with the vRS MkII?

Google images is your friend here. The rear bumpers are identical.

I have the rearguards rear bumper protector on my Blackline VRS. If you live anywhere near the manufacturer, they are quite happy for you to pop down and they will fit for free. I have the carbon fibre effect protector - looks like OEM equipment.

Thanks for that. I can now order with confidence. Which colour bumper protector will look best on a black magic car?

Looking for EA888.4+DQ381 Tune Feedback

TagEldinAhmed · Tuesday at 15:202 days

Hello all, I'm looking for some feedback from those of you who have their EA888.4 ECU and DQ381 TCU tuned. Ideally, from those with the 245 version, although I'll still happily hear out those with similar EA888.3 245/280 models. I'm currently in between two possible solutions: a comprehensive RacingLine OEM+ Stage 1 ECU/TCU tune, versus a combinations of Revo Stage 1 (ECU) and TVS Stage 2+ (TCU). In both scenarios, I'll be aiming for a 95RON, low-torque file, since I'm not only limited by the

Reversing camera display change after update.

NormanE · 16 hours ago16 hr

Whilst in France last week my car received an infotainment update, The car is a 2024 Octavia Vrs diesel hatchback, with a reversing camera retrofitted by East Yorkshire Retrofit. After the update two odd things happened. Firstly the reversing camera did not work at all the first time I reversed the car after the update. Then it worked, but instead of the full screen showing the camera view, it is now two thirds camera view and one third a top-down outline of the car with curved lines showing the

End of the road?

Vijay2018 · Monday at 12:354 days

Hey guys, Sadly it's looking like my Octavia days which have been pretty brilliant could be at an end, unless I can find a replacement engine. Looking like a blown head gasket/cracked/warped head so it's not driveable now and boiling away (95C+ even without the thermostat in). It's also had a burning engine oil issue for years. It's a 110 ASV engine. So my options are: Say goodbye to my brilliant Octavia ☹️ Try and find a replacement engine, throw it in and hope. Downsides are obviously the

Front Windscreen wiper has an annoying issue

RMH · 5 hours ago5 hr

We bought a 2024 Skoda Karoq 1.5 SE L back in May this year. Pretty much ever since we've had it, the front wiper will periodically (randomly) wipe the windscreen when there's blue skies and no rain. Sometimes it will wipe once, sometimes three or even four times. It has been doing this seemingly more frequently in the last couple of weeks when we were away on holiday. Driving back from north Wales yesterday. it happened on seven or eight occassions. I've checked the position of the wiper lever
