    OCTAVIA III Owners discussion thread

    What issues have come up for you as a new Octavia III owner? Post your experiences, questions and comments here.


    I can start with a question about the PhoneBox. Its the compartment with a sliding cover sitting in front of the gearstick. Some (or all) of these have a feature which boosts signal strength for your phone. How do I knew whether or not mine has this feature?
