They have also changed the shape inside the armrest box so not as many CDs fit anymore, strange thing to do really. In general a lot of those little storage nooks are gone, more than I realised.
    I miss the one above the air vents, it'd always graciously open itself when I was too vigorous and the traction control came on. I called it the wanker alert.

    Mine never popped open, but yes that was a really useful one, I kept the garage remote in it. Struggling to figure out where to keep that now, my with used one of the storage holes on the side of the drivers seat but they don't exist in the RS at least anymore.

    I managed to get myself a fairly OEM-looking reverse camera retrofit kit for my Mk 3/5E Octavia, but don't have time/patience to do the install myself, not to mention it needing coding anyway. Does anyone know someone in/near Brisbane who has installed one who'd be able to do it?

    You open the key in the key fob to take off the panel next to the door handle underneath. My battery went low once on the keyless entry and just as practice I took the panel off with ease, or a nudge but it didn't damage it at all so no need to worry!

    Quickly, how did you get the Lap Timer and Dimming DRL when Indicating?

    You just need one of the many VCDS coder options out there, both Lap Timer and dimming DRL's are super easy to do. I used ODBEleven pro, cheapest/easiest option i could find, enabling the live traffic feed is worth doing too.

    Hi guys Picked up a white 2014 RS wagon, coming from a stage 2+ mkv gti. I'm loving the high backed seats and gadgets. Already have a full resonated milltek system, cts intake and stage 2 tune. I need to tighten up the suspension, upgrade intercooler and looking at IS38 turbo upgrade i'm currently waiting on my DTM front lip to arrive from superskoda ��
    Quick question whats the part number for dv+ For our cars also how is everyone finding it now that you've had it installed for awhile?

    It's the T9351

    Haven't noticed any difference yet but haven't done much else to the car. Awaiting my tune and exhaust (should be end of the month) that's when it will come into play.

    When you install take the pipe of the back of the air box to give you more room. I found it easier to place the valve and body of the DV+ in first then put the solinoid on. But the pipe is a must or you will have no room to put it in straight. It seems like it will hold together but tilt it to far down like you need to do if you leave the pipe on it will come apart.

    You will have something similar. The flex pipe going to the turbo that joins onto the hard pipe of the compressor housing. Either way what ever is connected between the intake and turbo get out of the way so you have a straight line in or you will end up with bits down the back and trying to Fish out little springs. good luck.
