Hello skoda owners !

This is my first post on this forum, but have used all your knowledge loads over the past few months!

I wonder if you wonderful skoda owners could help me diagnose the most annoying humming/roaring noise in the fabia.

Its coming from the rear end of the car

Have had a knew exhaust mid section and silencer fitted .... not solved

Have had knew tyres fitted......not solved

Have had the wheel bearings checked....not them.

What else could it be?

I have a towbar fitted in case thats any use!

im running out of ideas

anyone help me

Thank yoooo

Harry

How have they checked the wheel bearings? Does the noise change with speed? If its not the tyres then I would think its go to be a wheel bearing.

no idea how he checked tbh! took it to a skoda garage n got an inspection report done on some other issues. sound increases in pitch and volume with speed, have tried rolling in neutral and sound still exists. have turned engine off on a straight road and noise still there. :(

i had same problem it turned out cheap tyres on rear and was making horrible road raor what tyres have you had fitted but it your case it could be break shoes or drum or wheel bearing imo

i had a pair of barums on the back but fitted some budget arrowspeed ones. made absolutely no difference to the noise tho!

I was going to say assuming it had drums on the back it could be that, but sounds like its a bearing to me if the tyres are good.

cheers guys

i will investigate more tommorow with new light

I have to agree that it sounds like a wheel bearing issue to me. If not that, then a tyre issue. How long have you owned the car? I put some winter tyres on mine and noticed a difference in the road noise.

have owned it about a year now! wheel bearings seem to be the common suggestion, not sure im quite up to the diy job of wheel bearings. discs are pretty much my limit :p

Hi mate, right at the moment I have the same problem. Must be bloody skodas tbh, anyways took it to a garage an they said might be tyres but!! My disc and pads are fooked so he said I could have a warped disc or something, the dics and pads are getting done Monday. If it solves the problem to mine I will let you know

yeh had a look n my front discs are warped too, bought some new ones to fit , so will let u know what happens! :p

fingers crossed...getting fed up of not being able to hear the radio over the noise!! :(

I have a similar problem, it seems to come from the passenger footwell but gets worse if I have the rear seats down!! I'm reluctant to spend money speculatively but it's doing my nut in, does anyone know how much wheel bearings are fitted?

Any update on this please?
