What did you do to your Octavia today?

[GeeMatt]

First Mod !
Sound Aktuator (As its called, I prefer annoying, useless noise !) Volume 0. Yay
Oh, And Gheon applied by Nick at Mr Detail. Good Job, pics to follow.

(Spied Venom's beast as well. Looks great with the charcoal Turino's !)

How did you kill the sound imitator?

VCDS. I have a Rosstech cable, so as simple as setting volume from 100% to 0%. (See the VCDS thread under Golf VII section)

So what was the verdict on the residual glow of the LEDs? I oddly noticed mine glowing for the first time at 4am this morning. Can't say I've ever seen them glow before so was a bit odd when I saw it this morning.

Driving home tonight and my son noticed that my glove box light is always on (can see the glow through the small gap in the glove box handle). Light doesn't even turn off when I manually push in the glove box switch (top right hand side of the glove box). Should I be worried about this being permanently on and draining the battery now?

This is all very weird as I can distinctly remember checking with the glove box switch that the glove box light was turning off and on (cause I remember it was a bastard of a light to replace actually, so I tested it to make sure it was working correctly when I had to spend 2 hrs putting it back together). I'm dreading the thought of having to pull it apart again!!!

Haven't quite "done" but bought:

Alloy lower control arms (S3 / Passat but with the S3 non-voided bush). 1kg+ lighter per side.


18" x 7.5 wheels in a very conservative ET54. 225/40r18 RE050A. 20mm less diameter than the oversize boots I'm running at the moment.


S3 front seats - a bit more lateral support
