What part is this? (rear suspension)
useyourname posted a topic in Skoda Octavia Mk II (2004 - 2013)
Noticed this after cleaning the car today. Nearside rear: I thought it was a bump stop but looks more like a spring. -

I made a bit of a boo boo when jacking up the rear today.

On way to work noticed I had no rear wiper and when I got there I got a silent alarm (just lights flashing). When out to unlock and relock and noticed no lights when locking.... The Wiper actually worked again for a couple of times, but then tripped out. So I did lots of searching and from what I could find it's potentially a faulty lock module. I suspect it's the boot as this makes sense as to why the wiper doesn't work. Does this sound about right? I guess I'll have to get the boot apart and check out the lock.... Will

Turns out after doing the handbrake test it's the rear brakes.

The pistons went back ok. I did have the carrier and caliper off. I'll have a god at cleaning up and lubing those pins. Thanks
