hi.

does any body know if skodas have any problems with there cutches on fabias as my mother has had two fitted on a o4 plate with only 850 yes 850miles

What engine?

1.2 HTP by any chance?

An interesting letter about subject of premature clutch wear in Fabias was in the Daily Telegraph Honest John column of 26 February. Honest John states it is a problem with Volkswagen Group clutches. It seems that the automatic adjustment is *too* efficient and leads to drag. The one error he makes ( prbably a slip) is to refer to the cable wherreas the Fabia mechanism is hydraulic. It seems from all this that it is a known problem so why does the VAG Group do nothing about it? As the old saying goes: there's non so blind as those who will not see. I bet most bought the cars as being reliable and trouble free. I t won't take long to lose the reputation imo.
