Sounds like it's a known issue; http://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/381825-check-your-clutch-very-expensive-known-fault/ http://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/363426-clutch-eats-gearbox-and-bank-balance/ Car is booked in to Skoda for an inspection :(

It's a 2010 FL model. Managed to take a couple of videos which capture it. http://sendvid.com/ibn49s46 http://sendvid.com/j9lrzmp9

Sounds a bit like the metal scraping noise at 14-19 seconds in this video; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=idbQmsRSDqY

It'll try and get a sound clip of it, might be tricky over the diesel clatter. Just wondered if there was anything common it could be or a known issue with these CR lumps.

Hi, Just noticed this on my car, it sounds like there is a grinding/metallic scraping type noise coming from the engine bay (passenger side perhaps) area. At idle the noise is consistent and rhythmic and happens around every second. If I apply the throttle (out of gear), the noise occurs quicker as the engine RPM rises until around 2.5-3krpm where I can't hear it anymore due to the engine noise being louder. Also happens in gear when driving the same as above. The car has FSH. Any ideas please? Thanks.

I normally just use Pagid discs and pads from ECP.

Thanks guys

Hello, Looking to replace the brakes and pads on my Octy vRS (2010 FL) model. I've read some conflicting information about sizes and unfortunately the sticky at the top of the page doesn't have the sizes at present. Can somebody please confirm the sizes of the front and rear discs for me? Cheers

Well, bit the bullet and paid Skoda Aberdeen to update it. An hours labour :( Scanned it again and it's now at Version 054 so I assume that's the latest for that model. Plus side, SD card is flying now, music starts playing as soon as the ingition is turned on

Cheers guys. I have a Nextbase 402G on the front which is great quality. A couple of months after fitting it, some **** on their phone rear ended me. Couldn't prove he was on his phone, with a rear camera I could've. Was just thinking about getting a cheaper Nextbase variant for the rear as rear enders are usually fairly conclusive.

I think Revo are quite conservative with their figures. HOWEVER, I'd be less worried about peak numbers and more interested in seeing dyno curves for how that power is delivered. More area under the curve will make for a much nicer driver/quicker car all round.

I would just use an OEM filter, cheap enough from your local TPS branch

Morning, happy Friday I have a dashcam in the front of my car which takes a switch live from the fuse box. Nice and easy. I've decided I'd like a small dash cam for the rear as well. Just wondered what the best options were in the boot for taking a switched live (comes live with ignition on)? Cheers

Is this the one you're after?

Weird, it makes no sense why they'd behave differently. It's the "indicates a control cycle has been activated" bit in the manual that confuses me.
