New 2017 VRS VCDS Question

Followers

27 January, 20179 yr

After a selling my 2003 VRS a few years ago I have managed to get myself a brand spanking new VRS !! Im delighted with it so far only have it 3 days. It has the challenge Extreme pack and a few more extras.

I have ordered the a full set of interior led's from ledperf and also number plate and footwell kit. I understand I need to make some changes on VCDS with the led number plate bulbs and there are also a few more changes I would like to make having seen them on here.

A friend of mine has a garage and has HEX+CAN and the latest version of software 17.1.2. Should I be ok to use this set up to make changes? As far as I am aware my car is build week 50 of 2016 (According to the dealer)

All input welcome.

Thanks

Best place to mount a 2kg fire extinguisher – legal requirement in Greece

fr1nklyn · Monday at 17:403 days

Hey guys, I need to keep a 2kg fire extinguisher in my car due to legal requirements in Greece and I’m trying to figure out the best mounting spot. My main concern is securing it properly so it doesn’t rattle or move around while driving. I’d love to hear from anyone who’s dealt with this — where did you mount yours, and did you use a dedicated bracket or holder? Any tips on keeping it secure without damaging the interior would be great. Thanks in advance!

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

Scala SE L 2024 Infotainment unit updates

NigelR99 · Tuesday at 13:563 days

For the past few weeks my Skoda Scala Infotainment unit has been prompting me to do updates. Almost everyday I get the prompt to do an update. I only get the one prompt in a day. I believe the procedure is to park, accept the update, turn off the ignition, exit the car and lock it. I think some updates only apply when you next start the car. Searching the web suggested several different ways to get the updates to "Action" A couple of days ago I discovered that notifications may show what is goin

Hi everyone, I have a 2006 Skoda Octavia II, 1.9 TDI, engine code BKC, around 400,000 km. Symptoms: - Central locking works perfectly fine (all doors lock/unlock with both remote and key) - The trip computer/dashboard display works normally - shows mileage, trip info, and door-open warning - However, when I turn the ignition key, NO ignition warning lights come on (no battery light, no oil light, etc.) and the starter motor does not engage at all - completely dead on ignition Important context:
