HI, as the title says, Im experiencing problems with my Octavia 1999 1.8 20v Slxi. The problem started 1 month ago, the car started experiencing flat spots and juddering when pulling away but only between 1500 and 2500 revs, if I dont push the car the problem is not so bad.

I have been quoted by local Skoda garage £120+vat just for hooking it up to the computer!! I cant afford this as I have just replaced the exhaust system on it and the cat on my wife's car!!

Any help would be much appreciated..

Cheers

Where are you? maybe someone on here could check to see if you have any fault codes.

If your up north (York) you can bob it round any lunch time, and I'll vagcom it for you.

how much does it cost you guys with VAGCOM for the cables (assuming you use the original ones) and for the software? Thinking of getting myself some VAGCOM... hmm, must not be tempted by cheap ebay rubbish

Mine is an offical ross-tech hex-can usb which cost 200 smackers from Gendan (UK supplier)

did you have to pay extra for software or did it come with it?
