Wow, sounds like roll bar links... I'm very happy with the ride/handling compromise. B4's are meant to be more comfort orientated and so next time if i have to do it i'll most likely go for something...

Yep, Bilstein B4's on front only, rear seemed fine. Also replaced all ball joints and bushings at the same time. Ride and handling really good again. Replaced at 135k klms.

I used to complain about working on VW/Audi cars. Until i work on any others....

I bought my B7 TDI because my Audi Allroad TDI was so long lasting. Different platform i know, but the company would have engineering standards that would have to be met. Also they use them as Taxis...

My mistake, i used the Octavia section. But if there is a new camera, the Superb section may be better.

Thats exactly the link i used.

Hi,

I have had it working on my Octavia Scout. I am aware that the RS only just got lane assist in Australia. May be a new camera..? Check out the Briskoda forums (under VCDS tweaks) for exactly...

Hi All,

I live in the Skoda Octavia and Passat B7 sections (and the Polo section before that..).

In Australia, our Octavia Scouts do not come with offroad mode, despite it being activated in...

My O3 Scout 135TDI will average about 5.3l/100kms on my commute from the nthn beaches to Balmain outside of peak times (shift worker). On regular trips to newcastle 4.8 ish (traffic dependent)....

You will have to VCDS the car or take it to a dealer for coding.

As for the second post, FWIW i installed my towbar on my MK3 Scout, (later model) not difficult.

I am at Bilgola Plateau. I did it myself as i have many VW group cars in my family i have VCDS. I am happy to do it for you with all care but no responsibility.

Hi, i am on the northern beaches and have enabled it successfully on my Scout.

I'm on the northern beaches and have VCDS HEX CAN cable. Ive done a couple of mods to mine, enabling the key and button to shut the tailgate for instance as well as traffic info. All care, no...

I traded the Polo for $13000. About what i expected really, nothing more, not any less for a trade. Basically, researching well i thought that was expected. The allroad i will be selling in February,...

Hi all, just took delivery of a new MY16 moon white Octavia Scout 135 tdi. Got the tech pack, roof and fitted a tow bar. Love it. Traded from a 2014 Polo TDI and 2003 Audi Allroad tdi. Does the job...

I have VCDS and can run the diagnostic, im on the northern beaches. Work out of Balmain but not back at work for another week or so.

Haha yep Alex, no panic yet. I'd like to think im practical enough to see they stuffed this up. If they make amends well, I will definitely be looking at the next Tiguan, after all, there were many...

For those curious Diesel Info : Volkswagen UK

Agree Alex, i bought the TDI for the torque and easy fuel economy figures. If i end up getting TSI figures i could've saved $2500...

Just entered my VIN into the global (except North America region) VW website. Seems the 1.6 TDI is indeed caught up in the emissions problems as my vehicle, VW regrets to inform, will be the subject...

In my commute between Newport (home) and Balmain (work) generally (but not always) out of peak hour but urban driving i get an average over the last 7 months of ownership of 4.5 l/100km from my 2014...

I consistently get 4.3 l/100km in my tdi, mix of urban non urban. Most out of peak hour admittedly. Usually get around 980km from a tank, give or take. I bought pre facelift specifically because the...

As no one has chimed in with TDI responses, here's mine albeit after only 5000 klms; faultless. DSG; awesome. Got the sports pack, handling; great fun. I preferred the torque to the 77tsi and while I...

Hi all, have a genuine VCDS Hex Can cable on the northern beaches/north shore of Sydney if anyone needs it.
