OCTAVIA III Owners discussion thread

I've also read that the 132TSI has bigger brakes...but i can't seem to find that info in black and white. Has anyone possibly seen it?

For the $2300 price increase from the 103TSI to the 132TSI, you get the 1.8L EA888 engine, multilink rear and the rear boot low profile spoiler.

Sorry, took me a while to find the data too.
1.4tsi front 288mm rear 272mm
1.8tsi front 312mm rear 272mm

Depending on where you look the 1.8tsi is somewhere between 30kg and 80kg heavier and uses a bit more fuel too.

Yep, the rim is scratched to buggery, though i may get it fixed. Full props to my repairer for pushing for a new rim and rightly so, its less than 6 months old. Had to drive that nugget Tiida in the background for a week. OMG the difference when i got back into my car haha.

So my MFD has suddenly started displaying the driving data in orange as you scroll through them and turns to white when you select the one you want. Anyone else the same? Its never done this before. Sorry for it being upside down.

Wont fit in the spare wheel well though will it ?

Overall diameter is the same. My spare is full sized, so width shouldn't be an issue either

Its been mentioned on briskoda but unsure why it happens. I see your traction control is off. If u turn it back on...does it go back to white?
