  1. I should also have mentioned that I will consider a part exchange for a Yeti 4x4, Octavia Scout, Land Rover, etc. Just let me know what you have if you are interested...

  3. They haven't agreed to anything in particular but have agreed to fix any damages. I will be pushing for a pair of front shock absorbers and bump stops at the very least.
  4. This seems to be more common than I thought! Pretty disappointing... It is now booked into Skoda, they are going to sort it free of charge and are providing me with a courtesy car.
  5. Hi all, I have a question regarding wheel fitment on my 2016 Skoda Superb SE L Exec 2.0 TDI 190 PS FWD. I have 18" Pegasus alloy wheels but looking to get a set of steel wheels for winter. Would Skoda Yeti 16" x 7j ET45 alloys clear the front brakes? I know only 'S' models with the 1.4 TSI or 1.6 TDI came with 16" wheels... And before anyone states the obvious I have checked the wheel offset, tyre sizes, speedo error, etc. but I'm just not sure on the physical brake disc size. Hope someone can help. Many thanks, Matt
  6. If it is sitting in such a way that there's a big arch gap you may be able to get in and prize up the plastic boot on the shock absorber and look under it. Easiest way is to jack it up a little. Don't have to take the wheel off.
  7. I will be fighting for at least new shocks, bump stops and top mounts. It's really disappointing! Now I think about it I better actually check the rears haven't been left in too...
  8. Ah good point. Yeah it came with a physical service book. I will have a look and see what it says. Thanks!
  9. It is pretty disappointing but I can see how they could be easily missed. I better check the rears too. Yeah i'll send some strongly worded emails and see what happens. Yes it has full dealer service history (2 services I think).
  10. I purchased my 2016 Skoda Superb SE L Executive 2.0 TDI 190 in May, it has now covered 27k miles but had been developing a knocking noise coming from the NSF suspension over the last few months. I discovered today that one of the shock absorber delivery spacers (part no. 5Q0 412 117 A) was left in place (see photo). These spacers are used for delivery of a vehicle from factory to dealership and must be removed before sale. This is a severe quality control oversight by the original dealership and has resulted in a dangerous vehicle. The NSF bump stop is now completely destroyed (see photo) and has damaged the shock absorber and possibly resulted in further damage. Has anyone else ever seen this before and can recommend how to best go about making a warranty claim? I have emailed Skoda North Wales (where I purchased the car) but I'm in Glasgow so obviously not taking it all the way down for repair.
  11. Yeah based in CZ and posted direct. Best to contact him so you get exactly what you're looking for... I bought the solid engine and gearbox mount for the favorit, engine mount same as felly but gearbox mount is different. The three felicia ones the list are engine, gearbox and lower mount. Favorit lower is different too. The kit i got had the rear and inside bushes (including metal inserts) for the track control arms and also the rear subframe bushes. The rear bushes of the front track control arms are diferent for a favorit and felicia as well... Best to contact them! As I said Phil was brilliant and sorted me out!
  12. I bought the solid engine/gearbox mounts, steering rack bushes and front track control arm bushes from Kolar Motorsport. Good quality and great customer service from Phil, not sure if he's on here or not but I contacted him through the skoda-forum...
  13. In terms of engine overhaul, is it gaskets, timing chains, seals, rings, shells, etc. that you're looking for?
  14. There's quite a few threads on this subject and also loads of useful stuff on the skoda forum too... Just to prepare you, it's not cheap modifying these engines! What sort of power are you looking for? The 1.4 16v engine conversion is another option. Think i'll eventually end up doing this. Maybe in a a few years though.
  15. If for any reason the sale falls through i'll take them!
  16. Modifications I here you say... Here goes: Front and rear anti roll bars (doubled up rear ARB) Front and rear strut braces Bucket seats Harnesses Racing steering wheel Stripped out interior Custom dash (switches and push start) Mk2 Favorit dashboard Wind deflectors Custom paintwork Decals Mudflaps Cibie oscar spotlights Fog lights Air horns 14" alloy wheels 256mm front vented discs Braided brake lines Felicia rear beam Felicia mpi fuel tank and pump Mk1 Focus front coilovers Mk3 Golf rear coilovers Solid rubber engine/gearbox mounts Fibreglass front wings And the important engine stuff: Ported and skimmed cylinder head Bigger valves Up-rated kent-cams valve springs Estelle spring retainers and collets Kent SK6 high-lift cam Microsquirt ECU Ford EDIS unit and coil pack GSXR750 throttle bodies and custom intake manifold Intake trumpets Pipercross dome filter Custom intake manifold 4-1 bodged exhaust manifold (needs replaced) 2" exhaust system (with cherry-bomb ) Coolant sensor, intake air temp sensor, crank position sensor (36-1 toothed wheel) Wideband lambda O2 sensor and air-fuel ratio gauge Oil pressure sender and gauge etc. And also mapping it myself... however it needs a bit more work to get it tuned and running better!
  17. If yohan doesn’t take the rear calipers and carriers I'm interested... Where abouts are you?
  18. A few pics of my 1990 Favorit 136L, road-legal again after a couple of years...
  19. Few pics of my new Fabia!! Just after a wash and polish: Posing for the camera: There's more than one Fabia in this picture lol:
