  1. I have exactly the same problem in my 2014 Fabia. Often, turning the ignition completely off & on fixes the issue for me, but it's still very annoying. My 2011 Fabia did the same, but nowhere near as often.
  2. All I can do is complain to the leasing firm. Will be doing that.
  3. Maybe they did one side, went for a brew & don't bother double-checking...
  4. It's fixed! Took it into Lightcliffe Skoda in Warrington (who were not the supplying dealers) and they found that the shipping blocks were still in the NS springs! This explains a lot and confirms I wasn't going mad. I knew there was something up with it! Really glad it's sorted. Drives SO much better now, just like my old one. Feels like a new car. Which it is ;-) Cheers John
  5. I like the term "wallow"! Hadn't thought of that word. But why is it doing this? Doesn't seem to be damped enough IMHO. The vid was specially designed to show the issue but my missus reckons she was driving about 8mph. My 2011 vRS used to be fine i.e. didn't wallow. Tyres are the ones it came with: Continental SportContact 2 205/40 R17 84W and inflated to 2.5/2.4 bar as per spec. Cheers John
  6. We made a video of it going over some bumps in a car park. Check out the wobble! We tried numerous bumps & it does this on each and every one, including the 6 speed bumps on our road. What do you guys think? http://youtu.be/a0xJmYNBEPY
  7. Thanks George. I have checked the tyre pressures, a couple were slightly out, but that didn't seem to make a difference when I re-tested. Tyres are different make to last car but same spec. Will re-evaluate after it's had a few hundred miles to run in. Cheers John
  8. Hi All Been registered here for 3 years now since I got my 1st vRS but never had occasion to post until now. As a company car driver, I have just had to replace my beloved little Rallye Green beast. So, not having had quite enough of a good thing, I basically ordered exactly the same car but this time in Race Blue (love that blue, BTW). It arrived yesterday and I was very chuffed. Replaced the indicator bulbs straight away with Osram Diadems which look superb with the blue paintwork. Took it to fill it up with petrol & it was fine. Then later, when I went to pick my missus up, I noticed that it felt odd going over speed bumps. A motorway drive down the bumpy bit of the M62 east of Warrington later confirmed it: the suspension is definitely softer and more bouncy than my last car. I don't like it. Have Skoda changed the spec in the last couple of years? Cheers John
