  1. I just went to move my 2012 superb and when you put it in full lock to the left, just as it gets to the full lock, there is a spring stretch type of sound for less than a second. Nothing when you put in full lock right. No clunk's or bangs when driving (I live down a farm track). Has anyone experienced this?
  2. I have a 2012 Scout. Last week the drivers side washer came out and washed and won't do back in. The passenger side is working fine, both still spraying etc, but drivers side just won't go back. It's 10° outside today and been above freezing all week. So not frozen pipes. Is there an easy fix? All fuses checked etc Thanks in advance
  3. Thanks. It could be, looks that kind of area. I will try get a better picture tomorrow. Its been dark past few days before after work
  4. So since I bought my scout, the passenger side of the front bumper has a slight droop. When wahing the car at the weekend I realised on the passenger side, the bit the arrow points at is straight and not curved luke the driverside. I'm not mechanically minded, so any help on what it's called and if it can be replaced to stop the droop would be amazing 😀 (Photo not mine, taken from Google)
  5. I've sent it up to the local garage to have a look. I got as far as getting the trunk moved the gave up 🤦🏼‍♂️😂 Thanks for the help though
  6. I think I have a wiring issue. A few weeks back the fuel flap wouldn't unlock without the gentle pressure trick. But very intermittent, then the other week the back passenger door would unlock, then yesterday the mirrors wouldn't unfold and non of the windows would open with the drivers button and non of the buttons was lit up. I'm pretty sure the red light on the door was flashing all the way home too. Has anyone any ideas? The photo is in the tube going to the door....
  7. My 2.0 diesel scout has started to make a kind of hissing/chuff noise when idling under rhe bonnet. Its pretty central in the engine bay. It stops when you press the clutch then starts again when to take it off. There's no noticeable loss of power or anything. I have a video of the noise but it won't upload
  8. The first picture in the original post is the same side of the most recent phot uploaded yesterday. Both front discs and pads were replaced in January
  9. The brakes don't seem to be getting noticeably hot. It was hovering around freezing on the journey to work and after the 16 mile trip to work there was not obvious heat coming from them
  10. Just finding frustrating that so far after having the car 3 months it's been back 3 times. They've still not even managed to find the record to say they serviced it before I picked it up with I find very suspicious
  11. It's a 30 odd mile round trip to work. I'm a paramedic, so wouldn't say I'm a slow driver 🤣
  12. So the Saga continues. The brakes and pads were changed, now less than 1000 since the new disk looks like this. At the moment Arnold Clark are refusing to replace it. In there word 'Regrettably, vehicles are prone to rust and as far as we are aware the car is fit for purpose and mechanically sound. As such, the branch has informed us they will not be contributing any further to the cost of work done to your vehicle'.
  13. I don't think they would have. It was done at a skoda service centre and from what I've been reading it seems they don't routinely do them. 🤦🏼‍♂️ I borrowed a mates ODB 11 and its come up with error code 00448 Haladex clutch pump (Open Circuit) Intermittent
  14. So we've had the first proper snow since buying my 2012 diesel scout. The haldex system definitely isn't working as it should as we took the 2010 one first and it went fine, but the 2012 had wheel spin, slides etc. They both have the same all weather tyres too. I had the haldex oil changed in October last year. Just wondering of anyone knows roughly how much I would be looking at getting the pump replaced.
  15. Always forget there are some petrol Scouts. All the scout response cars I've driven and my scouts have always been diesel.
  16. Will give that a go. The blue older one has more miles and definitely feels more nippy
  17. We have 2 scouts. A 2010 and 2012. The 2012 feels like something is holding it back when you set off from parked and acceleration. It doesn't use any extra fuel really and non of the brakes seem to be sticking. I'm not convinced the 4wd system is working right as when its wet and you hit a big Puddle the traction light lights up for a second or 2 and we took it to a muddy field, we didnt get stuck but definitely had the front wheels spinning more than the rears. Could it be that which makes it feel less powerful? It's always felt a bit off but I generally drive it instead of the 2010 until the last few weeks and definitely notice the difference when I went back to it.
  18. Literally less than 2 months and only done 425 miles since I bought it. I was told after a 2 week delay they had been working on the brakes. But I can't remember which ones they said they had done I'm presuming the rest ones
  19. I recently purchased a superb from Arnold Clark. On testing and since picking it up it vibrates on harsh braking, like when stopping at junction. This then continues for a little while after pulling off. I was assured the brakes were checked and worked on before picking it up and this is what they look like now only after less than 1000 miles. 1 is drivers side. 1 is passenger side.
  20. I have just bought a 2012 superb with the same issue and error codes. It is going back to the garage I bought it from as cruise isn't working either. If it gets fixed I will let you know what they say it is
  21. I have 2 octavia Scouts and just bought a superb 4x4
  22. I've tried that. Nothing seems to happen.. I'm stuck on the average fuel consumption screen. 🤷🏼‍♂️
  23. I've just tried with handbrake on. Handbrake off but still can't get it to do anything. All the other buttons seem to work ok with the radio 🤷🏼‍♂️
  24. Hey folks. I've not long bought a 2012 Superb. How do I change the display in the centre of the dash? It Currently has the average MPG, temp displayed, bit I'd like to swap it. How do I get into the menu too? I think it has maxi dot as when you open the door a car outline comes on it. It had a multi function steering wheel too. Thanks in advance
