My mate's little brother was mouthing off today and Peter decided to be the responsible adult and lock the kid in my boot. He said that the boot of my Skoda would be worse punishment than his Audi S8. Well, it did shut him up in less than two minutes. Might have to try that more often. He's a cheeky little bugger, I tell ya.

Two worn-out Console Bushes, Two worn-out ARB bushes (And brackets) and an auxillary belt with micro cracks, all in a nice new Quantum bag put there by the dealer after he had removed them and replaced with new.

As will a nice letter to Wolfsburg, Skoda GB and the Department of Transport enquiring whether VAG group are going backwards and why there hasn't been a recalll of aeffected vehicles - my Volkswagen Golf "N" model of 1981 vintage went on to 75,000 miles without requiring the replacement of any bushes

.

So far with the 100BHP petorol Fabia, i've had two sets of ARB bushes, one at 18,500 (under warranty) together with a new ARB and a second set of ARB bushes at 54,500 together with new console bushes. Not acceptable.

Skoda "Customer Service" declined to make any contribution to the cost of repair this time round.They instead relied on the fact the warranty cover for first time repair of the ARB in 2006 (18,500 miles) was outside the normal 2 year warranty period which applies to warranty repairs. That's despite the fact that the vehicle has only done 36,000 since the first repair of the ARB.

The improvement in the handling that's occurred since the console bushes were replaced is marked - prior to this the car had a tendency to wander in lane and this was most noticeable at speed on Motorways - requiring constant steering input. Cross winds were a nightmare.

Thinking back the steering wander started to manifest itself at about 20,000 i.e. the same time as the first ARB repair. But mraculously, the vehicle got past the MOT as part of the main dealer annual service each year since then.

This issue alone is IMHO worthy of a recall and when combined with my experience with the ARBs should have prompted any reasonable Customer Service Department to consider making a "Good will" offer.

And what's more this nice little present ( I left the dealers £500 ligther in the loafers) occurs just two months into my early retirement. This will be remembered att the time of my next car purchase.

Depends where you consider the boot to be.
