Query - Skoda Fabia VRS

Featured Replies

Tried searching but found nothing, just had my VRS in for a lubricate service and some advisory measures were noted. One in particular didn't make much sense to me and the guy in the garage description/explanation was very poor. He explained something to do with the front suspension.

What does 'Console Brushes Split' mean?

Thanks in advance.

thanks for the swift response.

common fault most on here fit cupra bushes as harder wearing

Yep a notorious fault. I was told to fit the Cupra bushes as they were harder wearing. Garage wanted to charge me nearly £300 quid to fix but as the car was just out of warranty I wrote to Skoda as this is a factory known fault and therefore, in my mind, a design defect and not fit for purpose (failed after 3 years/35,000 miles).

I wrote to Skoda a couple of times and they eventually coughed up and replaced the bushes at their expense. Depending on how old yr car is and the miles, I would suggest you do the same.:thumbup:

That's useful to know, Matt. TY. :)
