Personally I would think its a little thin.

10w 40 oil would be just fine. Semi synth more than adaquate.

Infotainment System Restarting endlessly

ScottS · 13 August, 20223 yr

Mid-way through a holiday in France and the Infotainment gremlins are back… SOS call fail, parking distance fail and manoeuvre assist fail, coupled with infotainment system booting, lasting about 30s, freezing and rebooting. SOS light on red and multiple warnings on dash. Car is coming up to 2 years old and has had repeated software issues. Could really use some help from someone who has had this issue and can stop the endless reboots !!!

CBZB chain tensioner replacement guide

Aaron1875 · 4 June, 20233 yr

Hi all fabia Monte Carlo received car with no history, but completed checks using VCDS engine was healthy except 2 sec rattle cold start. I want to change my tensioner because I believe it’s failing to hold tension due to the 2 sec rattle on cold start which immediately ceases and also fails to reoccur when turning on car a second time, or if it’s only been stood a short while. The car makes no noise after initial start all through Rev range and is very responsive despite being hig

Updating maps and radio logos - slight issues and few questions

LaMpiR · 20 hours ago20 hr

Hi good people! I just updated my car to SW 332 (came with 330). I have Superb combi 2023 Style, but it has Columbus (bigger) MIB3 infotainment. First I wanted to update maps, as it was V25.5. So, I've downloaded 26.2 (latest from https://updateportal.skoda-auto.com/), added it to the USB-A stick, but nothing happened, no notification. Left the stick inside and in the meantime got trial for Infotainment online package. Now it's saying map version 26.6 (despite online showing 26.2), so what happ

Lane assist is dangerous

Guest · 23 October, 20205 yr

I have previously commented on lane assist being a problem but this morning it came very close to causing an accident. I was following a friend and neighbour on the first part of our respective journeys to work. The road is subject to a 60mph limit. I was doing just on 40. He turns right and pulls into the right turn lane provided so there is plenty of room to pass on the nearside. As I knew it was safe - Bob is an excellent driver - I continued at around 40 when the car suddenly ste

2005 Octavia power window issues

ASEDL · Tuesday at 18:292 days

Hi all, I have an issue with my 2005 Octavia I was hoping to get some assistance with. For as long as I can remember I’ve had a strange, intermittent issue with the electric windows on the car. If I get in and start the ignition, the radio doesn’t show the time in the centre at the top, I know my electric windows won’t work. As soon as the clock is displayed the windows work again. This has been going on for years. The longest I have to wait is usually 5 minutes. Of course, now we are ha
