Ive got a 2010 Exeo St Se Lux 170 tdi. In 5 years of ownership from new the only failure ive had is 1 number plate bulb - seriously !

The car will be due for a cam belt change which is £360 from a Seat dealer, so hopefully that will have been done.

The Se Lux 170 came with double left side shiny metal (which I assume is chrome) shiny tail pipe ends. The only thing missing from the top spec model was the built in sat nav. You can expect to see the standard CD radio.

if doing cam belt, should also do water pump at the same time!

Yeah already agreed tbelt and wp done before I purchased it (56k miles). I have a audi a3 at the moment with the RNS-e so I deffo wont be missing that! This ones a 143 cr so no chrome tail pipes, this is one mod I would like to do, along with lowing it a little. Should be a nice motor for a few years

Hi, I fitted Skoda part number FDC609002 exhaust trims for an Octavia, fitted perfectly on My 143 ST and still look as good as new, although they cost £52 about 3 years ago. Other cheaper ones have been tried on the forum, and I think the verdict is you get what you pay for. Look at earlier posts for photos. Had my car from new in 2010, 2 small problems in first year, sorted under warranty and the car has been faultless since......Julian

Thanks for that, think I will contact local Skoda dealer see if they can still get them...

Any one re-mapped a cr 143 with out having dpf removed?

Funny you say that, I continuously have problems with my rear plate bulb as well. Rather annoying!

 

[Big Vinny]

The bulb failure warning system kept pinging telling me about a numberplate light bulb failure even though every time I checked it was working. Changed the bulb and it never pinged again

Well had the car a week, and I like it!

Traded a Audi a3 2.0tdi sline 57 plate for it, and it drives exactly like my old mans previous b6 A4. So all good!

Will post pics up when I actually get 5 Mins! (aint easy with two kids!)

Now for the MODS

First, congratulations, you want regret.

Now for your mods, go for Seat Sport tail pipe. This is definitely the most classy and unique one.

For lowering go for Eibach E10-81-011-04-22. This lowers 35 front and 30 rear.

Exeo Sport pedals are nice, have those. You can get the rs4 cheaper, those are nice.too

This is only my opinion.
