[Sadielou]

Well Guys Had My Octavia Vrs Scanned Today Needless To Say Skoda Need More Time And Money To Investigate Further. A Few Faults Came Up But They Said That It Could Only Need One Fault To Set Another Off The Main One Being The System Is Too Rich Which Makes Me Come Back To Wonder If It Was The Fuel Also Which Are All Related P0130 Oxygen Sensor 01039 Coolent Temp Sender P1559 Adapt Control Unit To Throttle Sender P1137 Long Term Fuel Additive 01314 Engine Control Module So There We Go Any Ides Anyone ???

Too rich? Could be the unburnt fuel from the non-firing cylinder (coilpack gone) causing this.

Well, I guess if you have the coilpacks anyway no harm in swapping them anyway but it doesnt sound like the problem. When one of mine went the engine felt like a lawnmower and had about the same power! lol.

we did have a red 2001 one i had a guy out to do the remap he was here 3 hours to find out it was already done and i did not even realise going to get this one done too,relace the dv and filter and then intercooler and then try and not to write this one off lolxx

[Liverpool-Lad]

Good luck but you should not need an intercooler with just a remap.

i'll see how it goes after the re map bless my little cotton socks ay !! lol so why did you choose the octavia vrs then ??xx

I couldnt fault it for the cash I was willing to spend. Id always liked the purposeful look of them too. Its amazing value for money and everyone seems to like it.

And you?

if the maf is faulty, that could lead to some of those codes. Try disconnecting the electrical connection from the maf, does the idling improve?

Not sure where i first came across them but same reason really what you get for your money is brilliant especially in comparisson to vw etc there big,practical yet still have that secret wolf in a sheeps clothing idea about them plus there different to what all my mates have ie astra sxis golfs etc and the police have them nice knowing we can have what they have lol x x

[Liverpool-Lad]

Yep, got my police hat on order to go along with my hi-vis jacket

is that without the maf connected, if the maf is disconnected and its idling ok then you have found the problem.
