Skoda Octavia estate 1.9TDi PD Ambiente 130k.
I am hearing a low rattling sound when engine idles but otherwise runs smooth.
Garage tell me flywheel failure ((£700) but this is before I realised my wife's car had not had its cambelt changed since 2009 even though it has not done the required 70k miles since last changed. Could the noise be cambelt rather than flywheel? Anyway of telling? There are no other symptoms except I am sure I have experienced very occasional loss of power when trying to accelerate. There is no clutch vibration etc
Thanks in advance
