New Fabia vRS Owner

Featured Replies

Hi all

 

Great resource this site.

 

OK, so I bought a MK1 1 owner, 26000 mile, FSH 2007 MK1 Fabia vRS this past Tuesday.  1st one I saw, tut tut.  Got it booked in for a cambelt next Thursday.  More worrying however is the noises coming from somewhere, quite likely turbo related.  Whistles, whines, some undescribable noises on light thottle,  medium, full, you name it. 

 

I've never driven one of these before and was wondering if there were any members in the Gatwick area who would be willing to have a listen and just tell me whether theirs makes the same sounds or not.  It would be massively appreciated.

 

Cheers all

 

Dean

Not near you but suggest you post a video on youtube and then pose the question in the fabia forum. Mine has done 120k and the turbo whistles at most reves togther with the usual clatter of a diesel engine.

 

check the oil , do a oil change is a good idea if you just bought it.....good luck
