I bought one on eBay from that listing. Tbh I'd rather let them make on me because it would cost me more than their profit to get to a skoda dealership

Ball joints are fairly easy to change, just remember to support the hub with a jack or something because if it drops against the suspension arm you can end up with a torn outer cv boot

Spark plug testers are pretty cheap to see if the coils shagged too

Can't get ball joint only from Renault, it comes with the entire arm iirc. That one should be fine, grab some plugs while you're there and change them, see if it sorts it?

Ball joints available from Euro Car Parts for around £15. CV boots are available but most people don't like to change them and would rather do the full driveshaft, they can be done though as I had mine done.

They do light up yea

Yea sorry it's a digital panel, iirc it's on the same fuse as the clock and that works, unless there's another fuse I don't know of?

Easier way to do the 2 side ones is to remove the wheel arch linings, you can also clean behind the skirts while these are off too which is another root cause of the leaking. Re Centre Hole : I can't find this, has anyone got any easy tips on finding it? Thanks

As above, not working at all, have had issues with water getting into the car, thought I had this sorted but as we're getting pretty bad rain this week there's water getting in somewhere and I believe it's got into the wiring of the control panel some how and damaged it. The control panel...

That's what I'm in the process of doing at the minute, once it's up and running my Ibiza will be coming off the road to be sorted and modded, loads easier doing work when it's not your daily drive, if you get stressed you can leave it until you've calmed down, no rushing to get it done so it can...

Heaters packed up now, this is going well! Cant find this centre hose either :(

Gonna have to do this centre hole today, thought I'd got everything sorted with the 2 side holes and rear bump stops but no, went down this morning to find a 1cm puddle (I have no carpets or foams) so obviously the centre one needs doing! What a pain in the arse this is turning out to be!

Will be doing this centre hole tomorrow, easily way to do the 2 side holes is to remove the arch liners and do them from there, while they're off clean just inside the side skirt as these can clog up with mud/leaves etc and not drain out, there's a hole behind the side skirt and if enough water...

Where is the centre pipe? Currently got all of my carpets, seats, door cards, boot parts all out of the car sorting any leaks and giving everything a good clean while its out. Done my passenger and drivers side blockages and boot leak, just this left now. Thanks

Check out ScrewfixDirect or Arco mate. They're normally really good for stuff like this!

Bump!! Someone could get a right bargain here!

Aberystwyth is west coast mid wales. Well worth the 3 hour drive to have Fred do the work though!

I wouldn't go to NWP anyway. Have you tried fitting an exhaust with their Manifold/Cat kit! :banghead:

I guess so. But his is the front brakes as was mine. Either way they'll benefit from a good look over and clean/re-grease.

If you have chance mate I'm only in Oldbury so I can have a listen for you. If you need it done get it over to Fred @ BTM in Stetchford. Its drivable but it will get you around, probably wont be healthy for the engine but given your situation id just try to cut down unnecessary journeys if you...

Brake imbalance can be solved as easily as dismantling and cleaning and greasing caliper and sliders. This should also sort the brake binding. Mine failed on that stuff last yr and the garage tried to do me for £300 to replace front brake discs and pads with standard ones!

Ive had one from cliospares mate for less than £20. Cheers BMH.01 :) Just a pic needed now

I always use M10 Bolts & Nylock Nuts with spring washers. Guaranteed not to come off (So far) You could use an M8 version of that set up. Theres one on eBay IIRC!

Its M8 yes. Ive drilled mine out to take M10's though.

The horn on my 172 has packed up and its MOT time so I need to get it sorted pretty quick. It's been hanging loose as the bolt that was holding it in rattled loose so when i removed it today i emptied about 2 shots worth (50ml) of water out of the horn. I tested it anyway just incase but all...

Sorry Duck but the car may be getting broken/sold/taken off road for work, so won't be able to make it now i'm afraid. Have updated list : Running on rolling road 1) Dave. - RR day and pub 2) Meek_Racing 3) Curley - RR day only 4) Popie - RR day only 5) Little Richie - RR day only 6)...

If its when you pull off quickly chances are its upper engine mount. I had it with mine and a new upper engine mount sorted mine, does the engine move much if you grab it by the inlet tubes and rock it back and forwards?
