Oil spots on the tailgate... any other common problems to watch out for?

Followers

It appears my 3 week old VRS TDI is leaking oil from the turbo oil drain which has dumped half a pint of oil into the undertray which is now lubricating the bottom of the car and the tailgate... off to the menders tomorrow...

Are there any other issues which have reared their heads on the Mk III

Not seen that before on the MK3. Probably the turbo oil feed pipe seal has not been fitted correctly at the factory.

Yeah, its a right rats nest in there. I was hoping to be able to get a spanner on it and nip it up but its a major strip down to get to it.

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 · 3 hours ago3 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

Door card trim clips

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!

Hi all, Skoda Kodiak 4x4 AWD, and Skoda Kodiak front wheel drive....what codes or description spec's etc. differentiate between them ? My problem is that while my newest purchase of a 2020 Skoda Kodiak , 150 HP and Front wheel drive, is a delight in every way, my car insurance has gone through the roof, and when I queried it, I was informed that one of then reasons for the increase (more than.€200) is that its a 4x4 AWD. The problem is, there is only front wheel drive, and the rear wheels are f
