Hi All,

I bought an Octavia VRS Diesel back in May and I'm bored in work today so i went looking for a Skoda forum and found this one.

My baby is Metallic black(bitch to keep clean in Ireland) and has everything else stock. I am considering a re-map but I have found that even with the 170bhp she spins very easily in the wet. Obviously the ESP system kicks in but it's just a awful system and shudders the car. If I remap I can get in the region of 200BHP(not done too much searching) but would that mean the ESP is constantly working under hard driving??

Regards

Ste.

Welcome to Briskoda..

I had a Vrs diesel for 10 months.. now have a Vrs petrol.. long story:D

What part of this sundrenched island are you from ??

Just read your story on the Diesel. I've had mine since May this year and not one issue so far. Nearly 8k miles on it too.

I'm from Finglas, work in Blanch and live out in Blessington. I see you have a Black Vrs too so I guess you know all about how dirty this place is. Mine was clean once

welcome to the site!!!

I was away there for a few weeks, a mate did comment on the number of them he has seen about lately. Seems to be a lot more common than the Mk1 version was.
