Agon

Hi , im sorry i couldn't record it because the phone doesn't catch the sound but car vibrates a lot when happens , my clutch comes with central slave cylinder so is that what we talking about ? and if yes what should I do get a new one ? Sorry i dont know much about these stuff . @KenONeill

parts were LuK replaced by a friend of mine in a local garage , i will try and record it tomorrow , Thank you

Having recently changed the DMF and clutch kit , it has started to make a noise when starting in cold like rattle or "bad belt" idk how to explain it , but goes away when i push the clutch pedal and it goes completely away after driving it for a little , reading in forums iv seen some stuff about a " Thrust bearing" , can somebody explain to me what is that and is it hard to change because as far as i remember that was not changed . Gearbox is 6speed manual

If i jack the car up ,untight the bolts then put the car in its own weight and tighten them again will that do the job ? Sorry for my bad english.

yes rear beam then , it was tighten while it was jacked up , not on the ground so maybe that added more pressure on them or something :/ hopefully is only the right side one , i will change it again as its still lubricated because it was a PIA to get out...

After changing my rear subframe bushes about a month ago(with stock lemforder ones) i noticed today that the right side bush has developed some cracks in the rubber as there were in the old bush , can anyone help me why this happened ?

Anyone ?

My car is a Octavia 1.9tdi asz code , since some months i had the terrible knock and "clunks" noises coming from the front , they started some times after i changed the front shocks , springs and top mounts . Decided to renew the front parts so yesterday i went to the dealer , track rods ends were in terrible condition so i replaced them both sides , also i replaced ball joints , wishbone bushes , arb drop links and rear subframe bushes(all Lemforder parts) and STILL i have some "clunks" noises in bad roads. The thing that bothers me is that when i changed the ARB bushes the new ones i bought were old design but the clamp in the car is for new design bushes , is that a problem ? or any idea what is causing this ? Thank you .

pads are almost 1 year old in close inspection i think rear discs are not in a good shape , what do you think

Last fluid change was 2-3 months ago , in a authorized vw dealer with pressure pump , brakes got a bit better after but sometimes they go soft sometimes not , vacuum system checked its ok , maybe a air bubble traped somewhere ? Didnt check the bushes is there a way to check or should be removed ?

It has ABS , but i notice difference when car is heavier in back the brake gets more spongy and doesnt use the force in front when car unloaded then its better :/ are the chances that this regulator may be fitted in abs cars too ?

i had much worse tyres before and didnt slip that way , tyres in good shape for the moment but before when i brake you could feel the brake power in front your whole body would go foward now its just like 50-50 , suspension is old too that why i asked maybe that is misleading the brake power regulator (if exist) because it has to do something with weight distribution i think

Hello all , does anyone know if Octavia 2003 130PD have a brake power regulator ? My brakes are very soft sometimes , sometimes they are good but if just slight brake applied in a turn the rear goes out of control , i think there is too much power in rear brakes I read that this may be one of the problems , if anyone have any info or its location Thank You

Can this switch do the opposite thing with the revs ? sometimes when i change gears my revs go down to 500-600 and then back to normal again , and where is located thanks

It may not have any connection with the battery at all , you said you got in a hole that may cause problems with any of abs sensors in the wheels , that happened to me so it may help you ,check with vcds .
