Things to check for during Skoda Octavia delivery

Followers

5 July, 20232 yr

Hello,

I am new to the forum and have ordered a new Skoda Octavia Ambition 1.5TSi that I am going to get in a couple of weeks.

Do you have any suggestions about what exactly to check when taking the delivery?

Anything that is knows to be suboptimal/broken/faulty that I need to inspect carefully?

Thanks!

Skoda Octavia Mk3 (2013 - 2020)

CD PLAYER

SwallownAmazon · 1 minute ago1 min

One of the things I miss in my TDi vRS Mk 3 is the CD player in the boot that I had in the much-missed Mk 2. Has anyone had any experience of a separate CD player in the car playing back through the "Media" part of the infotainment system? I do have music in my Galaxy A26 phone but I can't seem to get it to play albums in the car, it will only play one single track at a time.

Skoda Superb Mk2 - Bolero Radio, problems with the BT player

gabygabriel03 · 6 minutes ago6 min

Hi, so I've bought a superb from 2012 that has the Bolero radio unit, it works fine but the Bluetooth has been very annoying with the way it functions. The main problem is that when I start the car and my phone connects to BT and I play music, the radio doesn't show song information and touch controls on the screen don't "activate". Now the frustrating part is that if I then disconnect my phone and reconnect it everything works as intended, i can change songs and it shows what song is playing.

Thoughts on buying a 2007 2.0 PD TDI (auto) Octavia estate?

smokeyjon · 3 June3 Jun

Hi. I know there's a 'considering buying' forum but this is about an oldie so I thought this may be a better place to post...(a query for the long committed fans?)? I already have a 2005 Octavia Estate (1.9TDI PD105) and it is by a country mile the BEST car I have EVER owned. I bought it in 2013 for <£2.5k and apart from needing to do the clutch straight away it hasn't needed much over the 80k miles I've done in it since. However it is close to 180k miles now, the clutch is juddering and

I guess this is a common problem with the steering wheel and the silver trim piece at the bottom. Has anyone managed to find this replacement part (on AliExpress, Temu, or anywhere else)? A new one costs over €120 (https://www.skoda-parts.com/spare-part/5e3419671vkh-steering-wheel-cover-skoda-46861.html), which seems absurdly expensive for what it is. I've seen that some people repaint it, wrap it with vinyl, or use other fixes, but I'd really prefer to find a brand-new replacement part at a rea
