Londoner getting his first Skoda

15 September, 201411 yr

Hi all,

Getting car on Saturday so very excited.

Was supposed to be getting an Octavia Elegance 1.4TSi, but was delayed ~~forever~~ by 2-3 months, so we're now getting an Octavia SE tour-de-france 2.0TDi 4x4 in the unusual and fetching Rio Red. (I've read the thread on Rio Red, it really is hard to capture well in a photo. Not sure I would have ordered it from the brochure but there was one available in the showroom and it has grown on me. I'm quite pleased now won't be just another grey car)

Look forward to chatting soon....

Walnut Blasting: is it worth it?

peagreenblade · 7 hours ago7 hr

I have a 12 year old Skoda Octavia mk3 TSI 1.4 with 155000 miles on the clock. It has JUST scraped through its MOT after repeated emissions failures due to carbon buildup. The mechanic has told me he doesn't want to see the car back next year as it won't pass again and cleaning the carbon deposit off wouldn't be worth it given the age and value of the car. I've read a lot about Walnut Blasting to remove carbon buildup. Would it be worth it in my case or is the mechanic right, and I should just

Door card trim clips

Binx1310 · Tuesday at 22:313 days

Hi. Can someone send me an aliexpress/ Amazon link or OEM part number for the correct plastic door card trim fittings please? I broke a couple when fitting my speakers and there were enough left intact to put the door card back on but I’m planning on removing the door cards again for an upcoming project so it would be handy to have a few spare to replace the missing ones and just in case some more go. Thanks!

There was a similar thread on the Golf GTI site I used to be on and I found it really interesting to see what other's had been up to. My car is due to be built this week (34) so I am counting down the days until I finally get it! So what have you lot been up to?

Wheel Bolts for Alloys v Steels

Odinson · 5 hours ago5 hr

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
