Old post but I'd thought I'd add my experience for the record:

Had mine done twice before 50K service.
First attempt at replacing the water pump under warranty created a bigger leak than then...

As another point of difference, won't the RS245 have the new 7sp wet clutch DSG found in recently released VAG products?
I'm pretty sure this has been confirmed for Oz cars. Don't forget that MY17...

Still for sale!!! Make me an offer.

Slightly off topic:
Anyone with an updated RS figured out where it gets its 30mm increase in rear track width?
I've read that it was done for purely for aesthetic purposes and does not change the...

I'm not sure what the fuss is all about to have the latest maps. Definitely wouldn't pay any money for the upgrade.
I had the maps on my RS updated @ 15K first service last month.
It is still...

I believe either petrol/diesel FWD is only rated at 1600kg (braked?).

If you have an OBD11 you can run a sound actuator diagnostic that may help determine where the rattle is coming form or whether it is caused by the actuator itself. It runs a test tone up and down...

I've got the same ethos as Spinifex when it comes to cabin air circulation, although I've never seen the auto recirc function work as expected before I've hit the button. I'm not sure how bad the air...

Still for sale!!! Make me an offer.

I've just discovered the 'RadioApp' for Android (also available for iOS) that does an excellent job of interfacing with Carplay and streams beautifully while using Google maps on Telstra 4G around...

I bought one of the new phone holder, coin holder, key holder thingo's online from the NZ Skoda Shop mentioned previously, cost around $35AUD I think. Just beware, it kind of kills the coffee cup...

Capped price servicing? What was the damage? I'm due next couple of weeks for the same service.

What do you mean steering wheel scroll wheels replaced?
I've had the stereo change stations...

Also, how did they increase the rear track by 30mm? Wonder if it is new suspension arms or something changed in the hubs?
Would like an alternative to putting 15mm rear spacers to fill the guards...

+1 Yay! Rallye Green now an option.
Looks like 'Black Pack' is now standard across RS range (Should have been the whole time in my opinion).
I really like the Alcantara/leather seats but lack of...

Still for sale!!! Make me an offer.

Sweet, was gonna say.....


I have no idea what happy laps is but it sounds like something I wish they'd do down here if it means that you don't have to bolt an extinguisher into your car to turn...

Hey HPRS230, are there CAMS affiliated clubs in QLD cool with the extinguisher being mounted in the boot like that and with no clasp?
I've had many an argument with motorsport marshals down here in...

After reading your thread I enquired about getting a DIY kit shipped to Melbourne for $568 from Duco Scratch in QLD. I'm not sure whether I'm game to attempt laying the film down myself. I reckon the...

Spotted a red 'limo' in Kew last weekend. Easier to spot with the red spoiler than the combi's.

Thanks for posting that link, had a read through it all. Looks like the rear silencers have different part numbers also. It would be a big job to swap is all over to RS230 parts. Might try and have a...

I'm pretty sure they are a different shape, superskoda have 'Combi' & 'Limousine' listed as different parts.
Sorry, wouldn't want to sell you something that has no chance of working.

I knew I'd seen the gray somewhere before. Loving the Audi S3-esque diamond quilted alcantara inserts. That was one glaring thing they needed to fix in the interior, I always thought that the leather...

Interior pictures of the white RS press car show manual handbrake.

Also, no more radar sensor in the lower grille in the front bumper? Looks like there's a shiny blacked out area in the...

19" should have the same rolling circumference as 18" wheels. Just the sidewalls are shorter. I think mine with factory 19's was reading 114km/h on the dash and 110km/h on the GPS. What you're...

Any talk about whether it's going to have the new 7 speed wet clutch DSG that's just been released in the higher end Audi A3's? Also, has adaptive suspension been confirmed for Australian market? If...
