I'm from Slovakia and A LOT of 20 year old first gen octavias and fabias are still driven here so 10 years is still really good, these things last and parts and labor are super cheap on them so people keep them running, also most drive manuals so you don't have to worry about transmission going out....
Currently own a 195,000 mk2 vrs tdi. Worn through door card, broken bonnet pull, failed mirror repeaters and hole in turbo actuator! Faced all these in the past 5 years :)
I owned that generation vrs octavia for 5 years and used to cut my fingers changing the bulbs. I then realised that they popped out like you did in the video just before I sold it! I have had the next generation vrs estate for the past five years and I still love them.
I can see some skoda love growing on you now. It's inevitable 🤪 I got it too. The estates r soo handy you can fit a small country in it😜. Amazing videos, cant stop watching and I can't wait to see the lights fix cus I know you will fixe it. Its the Skoda love💚😁💚
Good job mate :-) Hot glue will melt on a hot day for sure. I've done it before many times.... Not sure about how hot it gets there in UK, but here in Australia it's getting really hot. I also have the same Skoda octavia, RS petrol, in sedan, red colour, MK2 not the facelift which is very rare car here in Australia. Love it ...
Had an Octavia a year or two back ,running as a Hackney cab on mostly journey work ,Airports etc a proper workhorse Also towed my caravan on holidays ,run a treat once I changed my service provider !!
Hot glue is definitely going to fail. Had a Mazda with such "fixes" from previous owner, had to rework it completely, as it used to just fall off once heated by sun
Really enjoyed this video on the indestructible Octavia, really hope you keep it, it would be great to see this survivor on future content, plus you have refreshed it well 👍.
You will sort that Dean no problem you are a master of your trade btw don’t give up the transport side of the business as that’s a super addition to the salvage repairs side best regards to you Mark from Billericay 👍👍🇬🇧
If Selling the Skoda will only recover your costs I’d keep it as a runner car. Better using this old nail than get your other cars messed up doing work jobs. It’s up to you.
Great seeing all the fault tracing, getting to bottom of it all. Headlights are headache though, when someone modifies electrics, then cuts out the modification, that's a world of hurt. Watching another channel doing same as you with an Astra estate ex cop car, lot of work goes into the modifications when you see it on "Cop Car Workshop" But they seem to use a JCB to unmodify! I'd keep that as a daily, looks good, should be good performance, mpg and reliable. Practical too and whatever you get for it now, you'll probably get more for it next year. More money than you'd make with the banks at minute!
Hope this helps, the switching unit that may well have been fitted, could have switched the earths on and off. Which is why it looked like you had two earth point . That would mean low current switching. Stay well stay safe
HI Bud!! Right to have a alternating headlight flash, for a ambulance the main beam wiring has to be cut and sometimes a blocking diode or controller is fitted. Because when you flash main beam both (of course) flash together, but for alternating flash they have to be electrically separate! So normally what the conversion company's do is cut the main beam coming out and run down a piece of twin core cable into the boot/ spare wheel area and put all the control units together. Just have a look the the spare wheel well or one or the side panels (depends on the converter company) to see if the wire are there or just pull the tape off near the multi-plugs on last picture and re-join the cut wires. hope this make sense? If not drop us a message.
This is something to watch out for on ex-emergency services vehicles. They all use the wig-wags on the main beam headlights and the equipment is often just cut out like this when they are retired, so it's very common to find that the main beam headlights aren't working. On ex-traffic police vehicles you'll also often find that the ABS wiring is cut into to allow for turning the ABS off for doing road surface friction measurements in crash investigations, so it's not unusual to find ABS issues caused by the wiring being played around with. It's also fair to say that a lot of emergency service vehicles are fitted with extra relay and fuse boxes for the equipment, which aren't always removed when the vehicle is retired, though often any good fuses or relays will be pulled for further use in the workshop, which can lead to all sorts of odd electrical issues and can, in some cases, lead to the body control module getting fried, depending on what circuits are being effected by the electrical glitches...
Bad luck with the wiring and the extra work. With you saying it could be a keeper as its so useful too! Let's hope official emergency service vehicles aren't quite as haphazardly "civilinised". I've always fancied an ex police pursuit car, like a BMW 330 etc as they look really good on ex police sites and auctions etc not so sure now! I think you should keep the VRS and use it as a run around, I'd even think off a far out idea of making an Octavia pick up out of it! Now that would be funky! Take care. Great video, esp your door card patience! Ben 😷🚌🚍🦇
Emergency equipment control gear is often located at the rear of the car. Sometimes in spare wheel well, in racking that is often fitted into such vehicles, or fitted to the back of the rear seats, or even under them on rarer occasions. . A headlight flasher unit will normally also have a "tap" for sidelights so the beam flash does not work at night. just after the fuse for each side mainbeam is a common place for a snip and wiring to the flasher controller.
I had a similar silver VRS estate diesel which is what drew me to the video and wholeheartedly agree it has fantastic capacity I think partially because it's got a big squared off back rather than trying to hide it as a lot of estates do now. I've a Mazda6 now which on paper has more load capacity but definitely can't pack in as much as the Octavia could hold
Great content Dean, it will be interesting to see if you decide to keep the Octavia as there might not be too much money in it when finished. Looking forward to seeing your new car video soon!
Probably that bit of trim was cut because it came from a left wheel drive car. In that case the release for the bonnet would be on the left side and on the right side it would be just plastic with no hole in it.
Nice car to be! I am so sorry to tell you that in time the hot glue of the door panel will fall. I owned an Octavia 2 but never dismantled the door and I am impressed on the quality of the hot round pressings. When covering the door panels in leather for a golf 4 all snapped in the first torid day. The only solution is to get the same plastic and to melt it. I have used a hot soldering gun/iron (hope to said correctly). So do not throw away the old panels because you can use the plastic. In golf 4 there are used some crappy crappy bits of white soft plastic which tends to snap from the bottom. Same plastic used in white zip ties (which I have used after watching another UA-cam video). Being cylindrical you can actually fill them with plastic and use a wood screw. Or, I really hope that the hot glue will not come off considering there is more "meat" to grab but during the hot days it is really a long shot. Nevertheless, a great job! Congratulations and good luck for the MOT!
Thanks for the intel, luckily though the piece I replaced is the part that actually bolts to the door frame. So the bits I glued won’t really do anything. So should be fine 👌🏼
Hi Dean, I have a Subaru Outback which is also set up as an emergency ambulance car. If the set up is the same, then where they tapped into the loom and ran wires to the back I would suspect is that they had a radio and possibly a mobile data terminal fitted. Mine has the control box for the flashing headlights fitted under the dash but without dismantling it I cant see where it runs but it runs to a relay on the passenger side headlight as well. So I think probably the under dash on the drivers side is the likely culprit. This is probably absolutely no help but may save you time in looking. If there are screw holes on the centre console/Midddle dash or passenger side this would have been where the radio/MDT was fitted.
I feel your pain chasing wiring issues on an octavia, ive got a petrol vrs hatch the same age and the brake pad warning loom is knackered. Water's tracked up the cores and turned the copper all black
The bung on the roof i would change, instead i would have taken the roof liner out and fibre glass that hole from inside,then filler on the top then paint it,my opinion a neater solution.
Good to see you managed to find a door card ! I'm sure you'll be able to get that sorted out 😊 have though about how your going to sort the hole in the roof yet ?
Depends what county the vehicle comes from..most of the workshops just decommission vehicles ready for auction..& some parts are missing.Ambulance stickers nightmare to get off if your converting one.
Presumably since the bonnet release handle was broken (yours is the second I have seen) then the cut out was the work-around so they could open the bonnet. More like a toilet flush than a door handle!
I have my Octavia TDI from 2011. 275000 km on the clock. Never had an issue. But since they change my chip ( emission crap), my car lost it's zip! This actually makes me think that I should sell it........ But thinking now..I will refit my chip again and see what happens. Otherwise I love my Octavia.
I had to replace one of those bonnet release handles and the little plastic clip on the handle is likely the reason they cut out a slot.. absolute nightmare to fit without breaking..
Hello there I had a problem with the indicator on my Audi A3 Turned out to be a wire going into the car from the door I changed all the flashes and everything driving at the blooming wall anyway enjoy your blog all the best hope that’s of help
Hi dean will you be doing a video on the Skoda octavia going it for its mot test and let’s hope it passes without then advisors and another brilliant video and hope you are staying safe and well
Looks like some lazy sod has just cut the trim around the bonnet release to cut the release wire rather than take the trim off like you did and consequently ruined it. Worth getting a new trim panel or not cost effective to bother?
RE the roof Can you still get pop up sunroofs fitted (use to be £80 fitted in the late80's) and if so would one fitted cover the hole on the roof. I know we are a generation ( at least ) apart,but the sunroofs use to hinge up and remove. Just an idea.
I have fixed up a couple of ex Police Skoda Octavias over the years and all had the same issue with the full beam not working. However in the ones I had all I had to do was remove the headlight and follow the wiring loom back a short distance a ft or so and a single wire cable had been cut must have been spliced at that point previously and all they did was cut it when stripping out the modules and never bothered rejoining what was left. You have prob checked that but just and idea
only reason i wouldn't buy ex emergency cars is they mess with far to many wires. it's 2020 they should have plug n play unit's now to avoid all this damage. Whoever converted this done a terrible job though cutting holes in roof etc wow
