Laura AWD Episode 4 : Where all 4 wheels spin!

This is episode 4 of an ongoing series on my Škoda Octavia mk2 FL getting converted to an all wheel drive from a front wheel drive vehicle, it started it’s life as a manual front wheel drive and now it’s an automatic DSG DQ250 All wheel drive.
In this episode finally all 4 wheels get power after countless hours of work that has been put into the car to make it get here, not only that but we also lower the car in this episode to give it much better stance and handling.
This AWD swap series is in no way a guide or a tutorial, this is for entertainment and educational purposes only.
