|  hi! Just joined, even though I have 2 skodas. I have a TDi Octavia (2001), and the girlfriend has 1.9D Felicia (1997). It is the Felicia that is troublesome... the front shocks have rusted through [sprint seat has dropped and rubbing on wheel] and they seem to be a total pig to change. Managed to get one of the clamp bolts out, but the otherside is having none of it. Tried plus gas, a large hammer, more plus gas and a blow torch, and yet it refuses to move!!  Looks as if I might have to drill it out tomorrow! |

|  Welcome to Briskoda. I had to have the front struts replaced on my Felicia too due to serious corrosion.
