  1. I've acquired a 2012 Passat CC 2.0tdi. The car drives really well but has a knocking from the rear. I took it my local place and he replaced the anti roll bars as they were past their best, also both rear tyres as worn on the inside. The knocking is still there. He's checked the lower part of the springs and they are fine and suggests it's either the shocks or the rear subframe bushes. On the off chance I thought I'd get an opinion on here and see what you guys might think it would be. Really appreciate any advice as always 👍👍
  2. Ah ok cheers. Won't have any effect on running if the pipe had come away?
  3. Was thinking my issue is the starter motor, battery seems fine. I did notice today and excuse my daftness the small airbox at the front, the pipe was away from the housing and the cover was loose. The housing had two pipes one from the main airbox. Is this just another type of airbox?
  4. But would explain the starting issue?. I've checked with my mk5 golf ref the battery light, works the same as the octavia.
  5. Just popped the snap on diagnostic on. Glow plug 1,3 and 4 open circuit.
  6. OK thanks. Just never noticed it before until the issue starting issue
  7. Cheers for the quick replies. I've had the battery checked yesterday and says good buy needs a charge, I had been away for a couple of weeks and before that the car hadn't been driven much. So turning thw ignition on to the point of starting and letting the lights go out. The battery light should aswell?. So potentially an alternator fault as mentioned?. Thanks.
  8. Morning all. My trusty octavia has an issue. It's never smoothly started, more of a cough then starts and runs absolutely spot on. Lately I've noticed when turning the ignition on the battery light doesn't go off which I'm assuming does normally. A sign of an alternator issue?
  9. Superb. Will check the size and get the ones from the Ebay link. Really appreciate you taking the time to help
  10. Appreciate the reply, yeah knowing the wheel would have helped ha ha. It's the 16" pic and item number 4. The disc shaped.
  11. Hi guys. Recently bought a very nice octavia tdi on an 07 but the centre cap disc where the badges go they are all missing, fallen off over the years. Any recommendations on some half decent stickers to pop on. Thanks.
  12. Yeah. Looks nice but not a car for me i'm afraid. Would be a manwel.
  13. What feels like forever i have been in the market for a replacement (to the clio 182) car. Looked at alsorts and do keep coming back to the 2009/10 shape Octavia petrol. But then i saw a fabia vrs in black, think it was a 2005 and looked decent tbf. I looked at a few Fabias a couple of years ago and no joy, mainly rust or been hamered. Are there any good fabias left................. Or should i stump up and buy a nice Octavia for circa 5500, ish..... Thanks.
