Lovely, thankyou

Mine is a 2017 Redline 1.0 TSI 110. Has quite a bad leak and it's quite audible.sl I'm going to change it. I notice that lots of aftermarket sleeves/clamps that look like this are available, but vary in bore size. Does anyone know the bore size I would need please? Internal or external would help. It's where the front pipe joins the mid pipe. Cheers, Tom.

Hi, I found another video which shows the noise better. Mine sounds like this one: I note that person says it was timing belt related....and coincidentally mine had the belt done by Skoda recently. Reading online about this belt change, apparently it's particularly tricky on this engine which has non-round pulleys which is easy to miss for a tech who isn't familiar. Hmmm....wish I could be sure. The noise mine makes is just like the above although quieter. I note that

Hi, thanks for taking the time. Admittedly the noise is hard to make out in the video but it's there. I hope it's just the 3 cylinder rumble/growl, but I am just amazed at how pronounced it sounds, especially when driving at low rpms (anything below 2.2krpm), you can constantly hear the thud-thud-thud like a cement mixer (inside). Wind the window down, and it sounds very farty, and I keep stopping to check the exhaust expecting to find it badly blowing but it appears not to be. I think my kids are surprised by the shocking lack of refinement lol. I need a quick go in another 1.0 TSI just to satisfy myself really.

Hi all, Just bought a Fabia III 110 TSI. Great car, i'm surprised how enjoyable it is to drive having come from much more powerful cars in the past. Anyway, I bought it from CINCH just last week and have a few days remaining to return the car without quibble if something isn't right. I was feeling happy to keep it, but now I've noticed that it makes the below sound when hot. It's a background warbling which is constantly audible at idle once the car gets up to temperature. I am not talking about the various tapping/clicking noises of the injection system. It's quite hard to pick up in the video but it's definitely there. I also notice that the engine shakes a lot at around 1100rpm and that acceleration from low revs really makes a rumbling sound audible in the cabin (which I quite like). Video here: https://youtu.be/MQMU1YgFLMw?feature=shared Mine is on barely 13k miles (although it is 6 years old) and it has decent service history including a timing belt change at Skoda about 1500 miles ago, could they have forgotten to tighten something? I'd be really grateful anyone could confirm that this sound is normal or not...it doesn't sound normal to me (even for a tiny 3 Cyl!). If this is a nasty issue then I think CINCH can have it back! Cheers in advance :)
