I have two questions for the people who are VW and Skoda experts.

1. How long do the VW TDI engines take to fully bed in?
- My last two diesel engines (one a Land Rover and one a BMW) have both taken 12,000-14,000km before they have really felt fully seated and have achieved maximum performance and fuel economy. Are VW diesels the same?

2. The Octavia wagons have a 12v electrical outlet in the rear but the hatches don't. Does anybody know if the wiring for the 12v socket is actually in the hatches behind the trim?
- I'm assuming that it may well be and that all I might have to do is find the orphan socket and plug an outlet into it but confirmation would be great.

Thanks in advance.
