  1. hi looking for a bluetooth module to link up with Bolero radio in a 2010 scout or if anyone knows exactly which module i need feel free to comment
  2. please see my post and see if you can advise thanks Colin
  3. Folks surely someone can please assist me. When i put my 2008 scout into reverse it will only go 1 turn of the wheel backward before both front wheels lock up. Going forwards is generally ok but I notice a dull whine from front transmission. The car popped its turbo 4 weeks ago and ive only done 600 miles since getting it back after the recon one was fitted. I noticed a smell of gearbox oil of the cold air from the fan during the hot weather last week when the car was stopped. Both back wheels turn either direction freely. Questions 1. Is there any chance something was not connected again that is linked to the hillstart assist feature on this car when it was reassembled and is this why potentially why both front wheels will only rotate 1 turn before locking up. 2. could this fault have been a factor in the turbo blowing as occasionally when driving the car would hit what i would describe as a flat spot especially pulling away from roundabouts or junctions? 3. Or is this somehow related to the haldex clutch in the rear of the car although from what ive read elsewhere on Briskoda the haldex only engages when traction is lost to the front wheels. Really dont have a clue with this one and to be honest there very little local knowledge where im living about Scout as theyre rare as hens teeth. Please help im really getting desparate thanks Colin P
  4. Hi I have an Octavia Scout 2008 BMM engine code and PR 1Z5. Any ideas which caliper fits this car of mine as im lost thanks Colin
  5. Hi folks I have a 08 scout which makes a clunking noise on hard braking and same on acceleration. The passenger side is the area the noise is in. All linkages and bushing have been checked and pad retainers replaced. There was an old thread on this but no details of how to resolve. I'm sure someone else must have had this fault. Thanks Col
  6. Hi did you ever get to the bottom of the clunking noise when braking then accelerating. I am having the exact same hassle. Anyone got a solution to this problem. All linkages and bushing are replaced. Thanks
