Hello All!

Jus want some advice on what to check over on my Octy vRS b4 my warranty runs out in July sometime.

If anyone knows of anything that can go wrong jus after the warranty runs out then i'd like to know.

I know this thread is a wee bit vague but its hard to put into words!

Basically point out anything non-obvious that shoud be checked b4 end of warranty!

Cheers All!

Book the car in for its first MOT before it expires and they can fix any problems for free. That's what I did and had the upper steering column replaced - loose UJ on I-shaft.

The MOT tip is excellent! Any problems with the clutch pedal sticking, or with the wiper linkages, and have the coil packs been checked to see if they need replacing?

Does having a vRS with 4X4 bring a noticeable improvement to the car?

Sinbad1900 · 1 May1 May

This is a follow up to a previous question I posed recently. I had a 2008 vRS for over 12 years and really loved it before moving on to something different. Looking to getting back into vRS ownership again and toying with the idea of finding one with the 4x4 drive train. If anyone has been able to compare the two, is there a noticeable improvement in road handling with this variant? Thanks

Creaking front-end

travs · 16 hours ago16 hr

History is that since the coilovers were done, the front-left top mount has aways creaked on turning; classic top mount sound of juddering movement. I've tried rotating the spring a little in case that's a difference but I need to do try some more just to make sure I haven't forgotten anything. In the meantime, the front right has developed a creak which is different. It's a heavier creaky rubber feel to it which is triggered on minor movement/weight shift. Going over speedbumps obviously makes

1.0 tsi ticking noise on start up

GSD · 6 hours ago6 hr

Hi all, Recently picked up a 2017 1.0 TSI. Every time I start the car there’s a noticeable ticking/rattling noise that lasts around 45 seconds then stops completely. Happens on every start, not just cold. Car runs perfectly once warm with no issues at all. Has anyone experienced this on the 1.0 TSI EA211 engine? I’ve read it could be the Turbo actuator rod linkage? Car was serviced by Skoda main dealer a month ago. Any experience or advice appreciated. Video link of said noise: https://y
