Octavia 245 Owners Club

[Boosted_Six]

Last two cars have been Quattro and X-drive, as a result I would be a bit of a liability in high powered RWD now due to lack of practice. I find the front diff in the wifes Skoda to be pretty decent. It tucks the nose back in and doesn't wash out wide under throttle like many FWD cars.

Hey everyone, 

 

No idea if it makes a difference with my car being a petrol 2018 245, but I've noticed the coolant is now low and don't have a clue about cars! Can anyone let me know which ready mix I can use to top it up please? 

 

...I checked when the car is on a level surface and the engine was definetly cold... oddly, it's only a few months after being serviced...

 

Thanks everyone

How time flies, it was serviced back in July!

Resurrecting this thread! Just last week got my hands on my Octavia Mk3 SE Business Estate. 15 Plate, 60,000 miles, never a single advisory on it's MOT's so far. Had a mk2 hatch before but it's getting a bit haggered now after owning it for 7 years so time for an upgrade. Definitely feels like a step up and looking forward to the estate giving me a tiny bit more practicality as my kids get a bit older and start wanting to take bikes with them and things like that. Got all the spec I wanted, cruise (after a recent BS speeding ticket, centre arm rest, steering wheel controls and all that jazz

Is there some kind of Octavia club going on in your street?

Haha it sure seems that way at the moment; my neighbours in the background have 2 estates. It looks even worse right now as where the BMW is in the background, is currently where my old hatchback is parked also!
