My name is james and i have a Skoda Octavia VRS in Red with 65,000 on the clock, I've now owned this car for just over a year. in the past i have had 2 evo 6's and 2 escort cosworths. and in all honesty my skoda is far better value for money......its fast, it handles great and looks the part and insurance is far far cheaper!

recently I've found a problem with the car! every time i start it up the car feels like its only firing on three cylinders! also i've noticed the fuel seems to go down far quicker than usual! once the car is warm it seems to be ok but the problem is slowly getting worst!

If anyone has any ideas i would really like to hear them......

Regards

Is the age of the car related to the current v1989 update issues?

WaveyDavey · 12 November, 202512 Nov

Just wondering if the age of the car, and therefore the Infotainment unit, is a contributing factor when it comes to the current issues people are having when installing the latest v1989 software update? Is it worth commenting on here if you have had issues or not and what age your car is to try and see if there is a relationship between the age of the car and whether issues have arisen?

Aircon not cooling at all: solutions?

Benja77 · Saturday at 12:172 days

Hello! With the Heat we are experiencing in these days in Italy (more than 30º) I decided to use the the aircon, as last Summer it was really wonderful BUT with my surprise it doesn’t work! I thought there was no gas in the tank but test said there was; I also put new from the beginning but nothing changed: Skoda mechanic told me he doesn’t hear the compressor starting. Thinking to the works I made on the car, I realized I replaced the climatronic panel with the one with heated seats and since

Electronic Gremlins - are we just unlucky?

Liteboy · 14 May14 May

We bought our Scala Monte Carlo Edition 1.5 tsi back in December and from late January it has had both mechanical problems and electronic gremlins. The mechanical problem have mostly been sorted, new rear discs and pads that were making noises like a wheel bearing was rumbling, the gearbox has had a software update and a reset (it's still not perfect). And the road noise is just the high dB tyres and lack of sound insulation. The electronic gremlins were put down to a failing 12v battery which

Update to Version 1969

spcdust · 6 April, 20242 yr

I thought it would be useful to create this separate topic and collate information as now Infotainment Software Version 1969 is out in the wild I imagine user interest will increase. All credit to those who posted information in other threads - I hopefully have credited you all where necessary. Feel free to comment on your own experiences and observations. Despite saying I was going to wait for this update to come OTA, based on the principle of “If it ain’t broken….” I bit the bullet and

keyfob misbehaving seriously

somean49 · 18 hours ago18 hr

Octy 2 1.4TSI ESTATE CAXA Quite uncertain where to enter this question. The keyfob#1 has started to cause serious problems with the car alarm system. So far keyfob#2 is working with no problem. Car alarm starting randomly and only disconnecting the battery helped. Yesterday the alarm kept sounding/flashing even when the engine was running - undrivable. Is there a home cure whereby I can remap/reset the key fob? My very helpful auto sparks is unable to help
