    The turbo started to leak and the shaft seized, so a K14 has been put in its place - 12-14psi or so is...

    No more Skoda in Solitaire.
    Jarvis is in the process of changing a Ford yard into a new Skoda yard.

    The Superb 206 will get the new 7spd when the Passat 206 does.

    We don't have a brake light switch like Japanese cars; its all done by brake pressure. You need to push it down a little further when there's no vacuum so that the sensors can detect movement of a...

    If its a failure of the unit; it'll be covered.
    Take it into your local Skoda dealer and they'll be able to sort it out for you.

    Thats what I thought too; but the Superb's extra size and different setup cause it to be a completely different car. Much more of a luxury cruiser and you don't get any of the hot-hatch-ness that you...

    Can confirm the 3-pot Fabia is a hoot!
    The 4-pot is a lot of fun and sounds great, but the 3-pot is simply next level. I'm in love and if I needed a new car I'd have already put a deposit on one. I...

    No, the torque of the engine.
    The DSG6 is officially rated at 400Nm (in MQB); the DSG7 dry is 250Nm (always has been); the DSG7 wet is around 650Nm.

    I've seen all the back end stuff; and at places like Toyota - yeah, sure, totally; huge margins and lots of money going around!
    Its incredible just how much Skoda doesn't make!

    Its worse when people come into the showroom pointing at the bait ads (Fully loaded RS for $50k!) point at it and say "I want that!"

    Basically it boils down to this:
    MY17 RS 162TSI now = MY18 RS169TSI
    MY17 RS230 169TSI now = MY18 RS245 180TSI

    162kW = 220HP / 169kW = 230HP / 180kW = 245HP
