Hi, I have this strange noise coming from the front left. It is a sort of 'clunk' that appears on acceleration and then on deceleration, also sounds on potholes. It's just had it's MOT from a reliable and independent garage and was mentioned but nothing could be found (as is usual didn't do it on the way to the garage!). It makes you feel a bit wary when driving but assume as it passed the MOT it was/is safe to drive?  Any suggestions or should I take it in to a Skoda garage?

Possibly Dual Mass Flywheel starting to fail..........

 

 

Does your car have a DMF???

Please note - I am not a mechanic or expert in anything.

 

My wife's 2015 hatch has a bit of a 'clunk' over humps and down potholes, annoying and hasn't been located.  If yours is on acceleration and deceleration that is a stage further perhaps, or a clunk from elsewhere to the one on my wife's car.

 

If you are worried about it I would record it on video or audio and ask about it at a garage.

 

I find as a passenger (or driver) I heard different noises that come from the engine bay at different times, I guess it's all the over-complicated computer programs doing their various interventions and after 5 years I've stopped hearing them and trying to guess what the noises might be and if they should sound as they do.
