Disturbing screaching from F/N/S when towing...
CantbeRSd replied to CantbeRSd's topic in Skoda Yeti
Hiya - good thinking, but no dash lights and the sound was constant when on the move. Just weird! -

There was no problem with traction as this was on tarmac. There were no warning lights, either. Bloody mystery. At least it’s under warranty. Mega phew. Cheers, yeah, all done via Skoda garage to schedule. -

The weight was about 1500kg all in. It was definitely coming from the front nearside of the car even at walking pace. Weird - and alarming. -

Hi there all, Does anybody have any experience of towing (problems) with a Yeti I can mine for an answer? My 66-plate 140 4x4 drives absolutely fine. I added a 700kg trailer and a 700kg horse to the back and towed it for a short distance and the most unholy screeching, metal-on-metal, sound came from the front nearside. Take the trailer off...nothing. It's not the brakes - checked. It's not the wheel bearings - checked. It's not the CV joint - checked. I used it in 'Off-road' mode and still nothing so I don't think it's the Haldex. Waddya reckon? I'm baffled. Thanks in advance, David

2015 VRS petrol estate - market value/ worth?
CantbeRSd replied to CantbeRSd's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
Thanks dude - no finance - I’m only selling it to fund an e-bike. Not much chance of a part/ex there! -

Great - that’s really helpful, thanks -
Evening all - I’m looking to move on my vRS, but I have no idea what the market’s like for secondhand stuff currently it’s a 2015 Octy estate, manual, petrol, Black Pack, <38,000 miles, 19s, in black, with full dealer history, new MOT (no advisories), one previous owner. Anyone with knowledge / best guess then fire away otherwise I wish you well and have a great Christmas. *If this is the wrong place then apologies and Mods please move!*

Good morning everyone - I have just bought a Octavia vRS 230 estate having moved on from a BMW 130i M Sport. Labradors don't like hatchbacks, judging by the smell. Before that it was a 325i Touring, before that a 330d Coupe M Sport, before that a couple of 330i saloons and another 330i Touring M Sport, with a Ford ST220 and a Subaru Forester Turbo in there, too. And before all that I ran through about 40 bikes (a different one every three months on average) and raced supermotos and sportsbikes for a few years (then had a massive prang). I had always liked the Octavia vRS and although I'm a first time poster, I'm a long time lurker. No pics as yet - I need to collect the car on Saturday, having negotiated a five-hour train journey. Though, thanks to SWR and the strike action, that could stretch into something even more epic. Epic in a bad way. All the best, DB
