| I doubt it would be a recall, there may be a service bulletin.

| Just had a quick look at the VOSA web-link above. I liked this one the best; Octavia II - flywheel may fail resulting in fire. Havn't heard of any flywheel fires on here, yet.

| that's a bit worrying.As for the stereo question, it's a simple software upgrade that your dealer can do while you wait but it's not classifed as a recall as such but a service bulletin as Stu says. Last edited by Makefish; 18-12-2006 at 22:43. |

| My flywheel has now been changed, but it obviously wasn't enough of a worry for the original owner (Skoda UK) or the supplying (Skoda Approved) dealer to do it ![]()
