Question Hi everyone, I'm a new to Skoda.

Having just bought my first Skoda, their are a lot of things I need to learn.
Firstly, where is the connection socket for a code reader on a 2001 Octavia Elegance 1.9 TDI?
And, Where is the AC suction charging connection?
I'm sure someone will know.
Many thanks and look forward to a happy relationship with the car and club.
Mike

Hi and welcome.
The socket you are refering to is directly under the steering wheel and column under dash.

Re: Hi everyone, I'm a new to Skoda.

Many thanks to all thos who replied.
Bingo, found the reader socket and A/C connection point.
Do I need a special reader as mine is an Actron CP9175.
Although it says there are no faults, should it show engine readings?
The car seems to accelerate well up to a point when it seems to go flat.#Have had it to Skoda who say they are baffled as no faults showed up on their diagnostics. They say it will cost £300 plus to road test the car to find the problem.
Has anyone had a similar problem?
Never having had a diesel, should I see air bubbles in the clear tube on the left hand side of the engine??
