^^^^ You can but they will charge you a small fortune! There's a list on here of peeps with VCDS (who are willing to help) and where they live. Get the parts and then contact a member and go from there.

Parts you need and rough prices.....

Boot Pop Kit Part Numbers

2x Skoda Fabia Gas Struts                    6Y0 827 550 C      £35.98 inc Vat for the pair
2x Scirocco (sprung) Pump stops       1K8 827 761 D.     £9.89 inc Vat for the pair.
2x Seat Leon Ball pins                           1J6 827 439 A     £11.97 inc Vat for the pair.

wow - thank you sir - your service is better than vw lol
I assume everyones keys have the boot symbol in the middle button position,,,, was trying to press it in multiple different ways when I bought the car, thought it must do something lol,,, now I understand.
I will buy the parts on the part numbers you supplied
my car is an 08, does that make a difference and can I fit this myself ?
also any ideas how much I should pay someone for the coding alone
many many thanks to you sir  :pomppomp:

Yes, just a generic key. Tis nice to be able to use it, always eats noticed in car parks when you "pop" it from a distance and peeps look round!  :laugh:

You can get all the parts from your local TPS, or VW for the VW parts and Skoda for the struts. It's a 2 min job to code so hopefully a kind forum member should only charge you a few beer tokens.

Am looking at the strut part number now and its C. Prices were correct as off 2 months ago.

 :happy2:

Martin beat me to it  :laugh:

If you press the boot button now it will just pop the boot onto the first latch. (just unlocking the boot and leaving the other doors locked.)

Once you fit the new parts, you need it coding so that it bypasses the latch. Therefore when you press the boot button it will pop straight open.

Where abouts are you from Stacy?

Im sure there will be a friendly forum member not too far away that can help with coding  :happy2:

As mentioned, VW may not be able to supply the Skoda parts (2 of my local VW dealers will not). It's a 10 minute job to fit, follow the instructions from my previous post, then its just coding. Have heard a story of a member being quoted £100 to just simple code this mod, incredible, and daylight robbery!!  :laugh:

Shame too far for me :innocent:

VW don't seem to want to supply the Skoda parts. I got all the parts for a Skoda dealer on ebay. The prices were a bit more than listed by Martin but more convenient and good service :happy2:

http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/number1forskoda?ssPageName=ADME:X:CEM:GB:1181

Email them with the part numbers.

I have the revision 'D' pump stops, I assume they are an updated version.

^^^^  :happy2:

Am looking through ETKA and still can't see the D revision, update is needed there I think.

Go with the D revision Stacy. I shall amend my original post on part numbers so I don't confuse peeps (any further)

Just fitted all my parts today and got it coded.  Doesn't work  :sad1:

Checked box 3 on byte 2 of the 46 control module and the boot just locks.  The fob couldn't open it and either could the button on the drivers door. 

Turn the check box back off and the click save, the boot flies open, but just works as previous.  Absolutely gutted!

Don't be gutted.
Mine didn't work with the standard VCDS instructions either...  do you have an early version car?
I forget which bits and bytes worked but it's close to above in the same 46 control module.  It will work.

Also, even after it's coded up... it doesn't work great in cold weather.  Pretty hit and miss.

Yeah mine is an 05, didn't realise there was a difference in coding.  Shame you can't remember the coding you did, would have been an early xmas present ha!  :smiley:  Will have to try and give it another go sometime, guess it's going to be a case of trial and error.

Take it if I just replace the pump stops it will just lift the bootlid slightly with coding?

I guess they're taking advantage of the demand for the kits, but I know VAG prices are going up again next week
