New Octavia Greenline III Estate Owner

Followers

11 October, 201411 yr

Hi all.

I collected my Octavia Greenline III estate this morning - looks great in black magic pearlescent!

My priorities were reliability and fuel economy - if I want performance I have another car (AC Cobra replica!) to provide that! :happy: It will be interesting to see how the real life fuel consumption compares with the published figures.

The first job this afternoon has been getting the audio side set up.Nothing fancy (SD card and/or iPod via Bolero unit), but I'll no doubt be posting a few questions in the relevant sections!

I live in Didcot, Oxfordshire with my wife Chris and four dogs (three white miniature schnauzers and an elderly black standard schnauzer) - so a dog guard and some rear bumper protection will be next on the list!

Cheers.

Alan

Passenger seat electrical controls not working after a new windscreen was fitted

Graham Butcher · 6 hours ago6 hr

This might be just a coincidence. But I have just had a new windscreen fitted following a rock being thrown up by a lorry's wheels hitting it, which left a small chip, which after a few days became a long crack and was growing. The screen was replaced last week, and yesterday I discovered the seat was not responding to the controls. I cannot see any fuse listed in the owner's manual which states it supplies power to the seats. The driver's seat is working as usual, which made me think it must b

CD autochanger fault

Slash112000 · 5 June5 Jun

Hi all, I noticed a few forums posted over a decade ago, but unfortunately didn't seem to relate. I've got an issue where the cd auto changer had a fault. I pressed the eject button which spat the magazine out. I checked over the cds and everything seemed fine. After reseating the mag, the stereo no longer recognises the magazine, and says "no magazine". Since then I've tried to eject the mag, but had no luck. Has anyone had any issues with this? I removed the autochanger in the idea of fitt

keyfob misbehaving seriously

somean49 · 1 hour ago1 hr

Octy 2 1.4TSI ESTATE CAXA Quite uncertain where to enter this question. The keyfob#1 has started to cause serious problems with the car alarm system. So far keyfob#2 is working with no problem. Car alarm starting randomly and only disconnecting the battery helped. Yesterday the alarm kept sounding/flashing even when the engine was running - undrivable. Is there a home cure whereby I can remap/reset the key fob? My very helpful auto sparks is unable to help

Replacing interior decorative strip O4

TimoB · yesterday at 15:321 day

Hi Everyone, I have been investigating how I can replace the decorative trim pieces on the console of the O4 (see attached picture (version I would like). The easy part has been figuring out the general part numbers, however I get stuck on the specifics. I know the O4 has two technical variants; one with stock leds and one with RGB leds, and that there is a multitude of different codes for all the different colours/textures. I would like to either find the haptic (square) silver ones or the pla

2.0l TSI engines: what should I be looking out for AWD vehicles approaching 100k?

Sinbad1900 · 31 May31 May

Hoping to purchase a 2.0l TSi Sportline/Laurin & Klement variant at some point soon. My budget may result in me seeking out a vehicle with 95K onwards on the clock. I’ll be only considering something with a full comprehensive service history. My understanding is that I shouldn’t worry about cam chain tensioners as they go on and on. But do they? So is there anything I should really looking out for? Thanks
