This may have already been mentioned but I cannot see it here...

Autocar this week have an article on the Fabia vRS (vs Mini and Fiesta). It was a good article and the Fabia actually turned out to be the best car (performance and running costs) but for fun the Mini won (best weekend car).

It is great to see that tha Fabia vRS is still commanding interest from the motoring press and still getting their vote. Take a look next time you are in Smiths;).

Strange sound when turning right

Strange sound when turning right

mbi4628 · 28 May28 May

Hello everyone, first time posting here. I wanted to ask about a strange noise coming from my car when turning right. I only really noticed it getting worse after a 600-mile road trip. At first, I suspected it could be the power steering pump, but I’m also wondering if it could be related to the power steering fluid. The car is relatively low mileage (under 50k), but I doubt the power steering fluid has ever been changed or topped up. Would anyone be able to listen to the sound and give some a

Rock in the front window air duct - how to get out?

Rock in the front window air duct - how to get out?

Skoda-NDB · 28 minutes ago28 min

One of my kids found a nice rock - placed it on the dash. I did not notice, busy day. Long story short I now have a rock in the front air duct. Rolling from side to side in narrow turns where the car leans a bit. It is benign. No systems affected. It is just silly. And very persistent. I've named it the body roll indicator. How do I get it out without having to disassemble the whole dashboard? It is a 2016 Fabia Estate.

Four wheel drive/AWD

I confess that all 5 of my previous Kodiaqs were AWD but I only realised recently that AWD is actually a bit of a misnomer. Drive to the rear axle is only engaged when the road surface requires it - mud, very wet road surface etc. The Haldex unit controls this engagement. In normal road conditions the car is driven by the front wheels only thus saving fuel. I accept that I may be in the minority here so I'd love to hear from others who were similarly misguided.

Suspension upgrades for SEL Combi

Dalekracer · Wednesday at 06:423 days

I am looking to improve the ride quality of my 2022 Octavia Combi SEL (2.0 TDI). I find the current set up to be harsh, particularly for rear passengers. Grateful for any thoughts or suggestions on potential options.
