  1. Skoda dealer quote Β£968 fitted, Parts Β£200 so the Labour is Β£768 WTF? You'd atleast want a happy ending for that price πŸ˜†Anyway getting it done there, not worth the car blowing up
  2. Getting it done at Skoda dealer, Price is Β£968 Fitted... 110k Milage I ain't taking a chance like a Fox
  3. Hi all, What you saying? My Skoda Octavia 2018 done 110k milage, done 80k of them in the last 2 years alone Replace Cambelt or Not? Apparently Water pump is other side of engine and runs on separate belt Regards ✌️
  4. I have no idea, they where fitted brand new 4 weeks ago along with top mounts and have rattled/knocked since, back to garage and mechanic said its all solid bla bla bla, just had a tyre change today and say this rubbing... πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
  5. Hi all, What you think is this normal? Also Rear rattling and knocking, Shocks and top mounts fitted 4 weeks ago, why the Rubbing Photo attached Regards Merry Christmas πŸ™
  6. Apart from Bilstein, what's a good quality shocks and mounts Brand ?
  7. Yes link replaced next day, I think the shocks are not aligned properly and put to much pressure on the drop link, who knows. Gonna buy Bilstein rear shock and mounts then get the whole lot taken out and re built, hopefully that solves the problem
  8. Oh and a week after the front shocks were fitted my driver side drop link just completely Snapped didn't even hit any pot holes, just normal slightly bumpy roads
  9. Front Shock and mounts are Bilstein and the rear were cheap ish brand from local parts supplier EKs, was told Bilstein are good ? Should I ask next garage to cover the Mount's in grease?
  10. Hi all, Just had brand new Rear and front shocks and top mounts fitted 4 weeks ago and the car feels terrible knocking, rattling amd just feels loose to drive. How is this possible all is new.... Took is back and the mechanic said they checked and everything is okay, probably they didn't even bother to check?? Is it worth getting different garage to take out everything and start again re install shocks and mounts plus add grease to all parts to help stop any rattle?? Please any advice πŸ™ Thanks
  11. Hi all, Having a nightmare with front and rear shocks and Top mounts, just had the second brand new set front and back shocks and top mounts but still it all just feels loose and top mount rattle and now drive side drop link has completely Snapped, The mechanic keeps blaming cheap aftermarket OEM parts but can they be keeping installing them wrong, the parts supplier EKs says nobody else complaining about the same parts.. When all suspension parts are new should the Car feel solid like it just left the Factory?? Guess I should have just got Skoda dealer to fit genuine Parts done right πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ What yall Saying? πŸ‘ The recent front shocks and mounts installed where Bilstein parts, still feel loose and rattle then the drop link Snapped. Parts where correct Bilstein supplier checked with my Vin number
  12. Skoda octavia 2018, Driver side vents not blowing hot air all of a sudden, passenger side and back vents in middle console all blowing hot, all settings are on high heat, any ideas why? Expensive fix? Kind regards
  13. Hi all, Anyone know the best place to buy a Second hand driver side car seat,or can you actually buy brand new straight from Skoda? Already checked ebay and nothing, Got a big sag and dip from where I've been sitting. Maybe a possible re-Cushion restoration is an option? Regards
  14. Hi all, does anyone know if my Skoda Octavia 2018 1.5 TSI Petrol has rear suspension drop links? Regards
