possible problems with 4x4 system

Featured Replies

Hello, guys!

I'm a new one here, so don't get me wrong with my "silly" questions, ok? :)

Here's my story... Recently I've bought Skoda Octavia Combi TDI 4x4 (1999, 66kW, no ESP button).

From the very begining I have one big problem: while cornering/moving backward I feel some kind of vibration (clicking) from the rear wheels (especially from the right one). Sometimes I do feel the vibration even then I start to move... It's very unpleasant :confused:

Can you tell me that's the problem with my car?

Hi welcome to the forum form another 4x4 owner called Eddy!

I'm not sure what the problem you describe is though but hopefully someone will be along soon to help.

Hi Eddie 16 :),

I had a similar problem some 2 years ago

Here is what I did posted back then

Hi Podwin,

So they did sort it out.

To recap my problems (as they were not exactly similar to yours):

1)Esp did not lit

2)Strong vibrations of the rear wheels while turning in the parking / cornering.

I am unable to tell you what exactly they did but here is what I have seen and I have been told:

1)They spotted something wrong on their handheld computer (in german) related to the acc sensor / related data

2) the car was lifted the Haldex ECU reconnected then tried to set some parameters related to acc sensing - but the guy was not convinced that the ECU accepted the paramater setting according to some responses displayed

3) while the car in the air "back an forth" for a few seconds

4)Test drive (about 1mile several corners max 40mph) - disapointment - the vibrations while sharp turns still there

5) BUT on final return to garage - the vibarations disapeared

6) Extended the test drive - on "power mode", sharp turns, donuts, but no more vibrations

7) Car still under survailance if the pb kicks back.

There were some other posts related to this issue on a topic started by Podwin. (you can search for my very first post under "members")

Is it your problem similar? if yes please come back with results off your investigations.

BR, Robert
