Was driving me up the wall! Ended up buying brembo pads which will go on this weekend, I'll just check there is no play either side before using them.

Yep turns out the noise it poorly fitting pads! Time to go back to ECP and get some Pagid ones now! Anyone know if I'm able to return the Eicher ones as the fitment is correct online but is clearly too small.

Hi All, I changed my brake pads at the weekend and all seemed to go fine, but now I have a knocking noise coming from the front of the car when going over bumps or when turning, I assume it's a suspension noise (as it seems to be in that area) so my first thought was the bushes have gone as I had this on a previous car. Anyone have any ideas? I'm guessing it's nothing to do with my brakes but thought it's worth mentioning just in case. Any help massively appreciated.

Thanks all for helping, picking up some 340mm from eurocarparts today. I'm currently trying to sell my car so not too worried about the quality. Although in the current climate looks like I'll have it a while Anyone had a bad experience with eicher? I know they were fine on my old corsa I had but that was slightly less demanding Tried my local TPS a while back but they don't sell to the public, I know it seems to depend on the branch if they do or not.

Hi All, I have a late 2015 Octavia VRS TDI, just had an MOT and service at Skoda and I've been told I need front brake pads (At a cost of £250) Having a look on eurocarparts and I can get a pair for the front for around £50 so told them I'd do it myself (luckily my father-in-law is pretty handy) Just wondering what size pads I need? I assume I have the 340mm discs as they look pretty beefy. Cheers

Hi, I've just changed my interior and number plate lights to LED but I'm getting a warning about my number plate lights being out (they're not) even though I bought 'error free canbus' Does anyone know how I can sort this? as my car is going in for it's MOT on Thursday and I don't want this to be a failure. Thanks in advance

Great thanks for the reply. Good thing I didn't test it on the road

Hi Guys, Recently picked up a 2015 (65 Plate) Octavia VRS and I'm wondering how to tell if it has Adaptive Cruise Control without actually letting my car speed into slowing traffic

I collect my 2015 Octavia Vrs 184 tomorrow! Should be quite an upgrade from my 2004 Fabia

Hi guys My power steering is making a creaking noise when it nears full lock. I've checked the fluid levels and topped that up but the problem still exists. Will this be a new power steering pump? Or is there something that's worth checking first? Also has anyone bought a second hand pump from ebay? They're dirt cheap compared to euro car parts so wondering if its worth the risk.

Always nice to see a cheap fix! Thanks for the help

Great! I’ll have to get the car up when I have some free time! Thanks for the help

Thanks! Is this something that would be easy for me to do? Or is it best to go to a garage? I’m trying to get more hands on with my car!

Hi All! I recently purchased a Fabia and I've been having squeaking coming from what sounds like my rear left brake, it only happens when I'm not touching the brake. Any ideas what it could be? I've had both rear disks and pads replaced and F1 Auto said the caliper doesn't seem to be sticking. It doesn't happen all the time, but it's becoming more and more. Thanks
