Once you've gone Czech, you'll never look back

Well, having moved to NZ & sampled one of the JDM import options - Subaru Legacy 2.0 GT (NA 150bhp) - Mrs RGTDi & I have returned to the Czech fold with a 2008 Fabia 1.9TDi Combi.

With NZ spec's being a little different to the UK, it seems our car is a cross between a 3 and an Elegance. It's got full electrics, climate control, but no cruise.

So, like we did with our 2001 Fab TDi Comfort, we'll be looking after our car and maybe making some small tweaks here or there.

Wheel Bolts for Alloys v Steels

Odinson · 12 June12 Jun

Hi all, finally got around to getting some new shoes ordered for the girl. I'm getting a set of Hankook Ventus Evo K137 235/45 ZR18 98Y XL put onto the Pegasus alloys. I was considering changing out the locking wheel nut for just a regular nut? Which then prompted the second question, I picked up a set of Alcar 9021 17inch Steelies for Winter Tyres, do I need to run seperate nuts due to the alloy v steel nature? I was looking on autodoc to try and order some nuts as I didn't know how often they

Octavia Scout Mk3 Rear Suspension

wallacebob · 25 January, 20215 yr

I have always thought my rear suspension a little soft when towing or even with a full tank. I fitted rubber assisters and this has helped hugely but I would like a little more permanent solution. How can I tell if springs such as these - https://www.autodoc.co.uk/lesjofors/9735347 are heavier duty? It does say for towing. Would fitting new shocks (Bilstein B6?) help as well? I suppose crawling under to see what shocks I have, and what springs I have may a good idea anyway? I think the

I have a 2014 diesel octavia estate 1.6 blk edition. Lately, and since service my mpg is alot lower than normal. I understand my car is old but recently ive noticed im using more fuel. Ive asked my usual mechanic and hes replied with the expected answer i thought hed suggest which is weather, tyres, speed, fuel prices and that mpg is never ro be trusted. Im not taking fuel prices into consideration as im seeing my fuel being used up more. Mpg today has been 34,on a route i normally use and get
