Towbar – detachable - RS
The tow bar is another of the practical extras from the Škoda Genuine Accessories range that increase the utility of the vehicle. The tow bar complies with homologation E8 55R-01 55880 and all Czech and international regulations. Thanks to the simple, automatic mechanism for fitting and removing the ball hitch, no tools are needed – meaning that it is much simpler to meet the legal requirements for removing the ball hitch when the trailer is uncoupled. When you are driving abroad, the country-specific legal regulations must be followed at all times if you have not attached a trailer to the tow bar fitted to your car. Retrofitting the tow bar places increased demands on the car’s cooling system. That‘s why it‘s necessary to have certain parts of the cooling system replaced by the Škoda Auto / B2B Service centre, using the information provided by the Škoda service technician. The electrical wiring set is not included and must be ordered separately: – for vehicles set up for a tow bar 5E3 055 202B (contains control unit 5H0 907 383C). – for vehicles not set up for a tow bar 5E3 055 202C + 5E3 055 204B. For vehicles with UN.ECE with PR NI1, NI7, NI8 and NI9 must be ordered separately: - for vehicles set up for a tow bar 5E3 055 202C (contains control unit 5H0 907 383D). – for vehicles not set up for a tow bar 5E3 055 202C + 5E3 055 204B. This part is not possible to fitt it to hybrid vehicles Octavia RS iV (PHEV).
