CLONK! Just in case you get this...

Hey folks, just got our 2007 SE back from the menders as it had a massive clonking noise from the underside, particularly on full/near full lock when steering.

Usual things were suspected...ARB, bushes, gearbox mounting etc...

None of which fixed it...

Then had a new drive shaft....still got the CLONK!

Finally Skoda UK sent an assessor who worked out it was a faulty hub and wheel bearing...no more CLONK!

Cost Skoda a fortune; thank goodness for warrantys!

So if you get a loud CLONK! It could be your hub/bearing.

I always keep an eye out for knocking and clonking threads so thx for the heads up. My knocking came from the fuel filter jumping up and down in the plastic housing. This has driven me and SUK mad for 2 years.

Sympton = knocking

Diagnosis = Sit in the car and get a friend to lift the fuel filter up and down in the

housing, if there is a bit of slack you will get a familiar knock.

Resolution = Jam some rags or equiavlent down the side of the filter to keep in situ.

Job done.

PS Chrispy try it and see if it solves your issue.
