Interesting for me too Brad. The original fitted battery which failed was not a Varta. It was a brand I've never seen. I can't rememer what it was. Global Assist mechanic went back to his...
The battery in my MY16 206 died just before Xmas. 2.5 years old. I've never had a battery die so quickly, especially when the car has regular long runs at speed.
When I called Skoda Assist,...
An interesting experience over Christmas/New Year. My battery inexplicably failed the morning after I'd driven several hundred kilometres. I called Skoda Assist where the operator had difficulty...
Of course dArK5HaD0w. You only have to see how nothing about diesel gate lasted on these pages for very long, before either disappearing or getting shuffled to obscurity. This is a tell us what...
All you need to do is trim a cresent shaped piece out of that stupid little plastic lip which protrudes into the wheel well by about 1cm. Dead easy a little Dremel cutting wheel in a small...

Yes woofy, let's face it, local mirror servers would not be a big investment for VW/Skoda Australia & one very well worth it, given the utterly frustrating situation for both owners & Skoda service...
Wow, I thought the day would never come; I've finally received the first update since my 206 sedan which was built on 1st Oct, 2015, an MY2016, delivered in May 2016 by the woeful former Skoda...
Greatly appreciated mate, but I need to get this resolved to ensure I don't miss out on important software updates or recalls, like the one I know VW/Skoda has been ordered to undertake for the...
Yes, I've checked the version mate. It is still the original; dated 2015/2016.
I'll ask Thompson to investigate the registration of the VIN. It could well be the case ex-Trivet. No point...
Thanks dArkSHaDOw.
I've checked the VIN for updates & had the dealer do the same. It shows an update, but the thing is exactly the same version already on board. If the dealer as recently as 3...
I've just had the trim over the rear door fixed again. Hopefully....this time...
One disappointing thing is the obvious misalignment of the front & rear chrome top trims now. It is...
The tyre manufacturers recommended pressure for 245.40.19 Conti 6 on the car is 36-38psi. I use 37psi, have nice even tyre wear & very good steering feel & adhesion in all conditions. Under...
Yes. I have 245 40/19s Continental Sports contact 6s on my 206. It is legal for the rim size, according to JAX, confirmed in RTA regs. 245s are a common size to fit hold-ons, fords & a lot of...
So much for the fix to chrome trim over the doors on my 206. Hot weather returns & the trim over the rear door springs loose again! It seems the Skoda glue used in the fix softens in...
G'day Andysuew,
Most of what is written above misses the point, if the Lane Assist indicator is orange, it means it can't activate because it can't recognise the road makings needed to centre in the...
You are quite right Mysticality & dArk5HaDOw. We tried it some time ago & from the driver's seat seemed to work when my mate turned his very powerful spot onto the front of the car. The reason it...
Sportline looks to me to be a non-event. There is nothing in that thing not in the current 206 other than some cross hatch to the seats. What is the point of it, other than an inevitable...
Mine is a 206 & has both. DLA I don't like because high beam will have already blinded the oncoming driver on the open road, long before it dips.
I have a full size alloy spare in my 206 & it is the same 245 size fitted to my car. You are right it sits higher than a 205 but not as much as you calculate. A 205 is under the well top, so the...
Interesting IMSancho. 'Campaigns', any word but recall it seems.
The mention of adhesive related to trim & replacement of a windscreen washer tube, suggests Skoda well know the problems of...
Well there is no reason to express any sense of loss, now Trivett is no longer the Skoda dealer in Parramatta.
Roll on the new Thompson Skoda! Across the road & a very good chance to pick up my...
Great to see the Superb 162 win. A pity they didn't plug a 206 into the luxury Car under $80k category.
I recall the early Carsguide & Drive road tests of the Superb III. One serious...
Yes boy123, it works.
I've tried it several times & all worked as it should. One item you might look at is the range setting for your front radar unit. It is set long from the factory &...
