Hi just to say that I am new to skodas but have had all other VW/udi/Seat cars. Have just bought a octavia estate 2010 1.6tdi. Have used the site a number of times when having trouble with my other cars. Live in N Yorks.

hello to all, i have a laura 2009 tdi 1.9 pd 30k in odo, i am facing problem with my ac,cooling not sufficient, i have gone through numerous threads where the same problem were mentioned, now after detailed search and consultancy, i have pinned the problem and it is n280 master valve, my sanden compressor is working well.

my question is - can i get this valve in open market,and if yes where?

what is the part no., does valeo compressor also comes with the same n280 valve?

another problem - egr warning light stays on, gone through all the pipes, cleanned the egr, but no result, small amount of smoke comes out of the engine during starting, is that something to do with egr? please help
