In their own words

On the car's first MoT advanced 'misting' noted on Shock Absorbers. Only 15000 miles on the clock, but Skoda refuse to replace. They advise 'misting' is a normal feature on all their Shock Absorbers. However, when a courtesy Health Check video shows oil leak a third of the way down the Shock body, and their technician advises to get it checked again in 2 or 3 to 4 months time to ensure safety it doesn't inspire confidence. Cost to replace quoted at £756.38, so if you are thinking of buying a Skoda factor in the extra cost to replace Shock Absorbers every 20000 miles or about 2-years of motoring. Trying to get a sensible response from Skoda complaints is impossible.
