I'm away at the moment but will check when back home.

According to the relevent owners manual & brochure the 2019 Fabia has HHC. So if the Colour Edition & SEL don't then which versions do have HHC?
-
Thanks for your response. I'll contact the Skoda dealer where we bought the car. A little annoying if it's not 'fitted' as the driver's manual & the brochure both list it as being a standard feature of the car. Although neither my wife or me have any problem performing hill starts the old fashioned way by balancing the clutch & manual handbrake.

As I said in last my post - the car moves as soon as I take my foot off the brake pedal. I know of a web-site that lists the option codes for the 2018-2019 Fabia but yet to find the label in our car. Not in the usual place in the boot, as in my Seat Leon.

When on a hill the car moves instantly when my foot is taken off the brake pedal.

Oops, my mistake - the car is June 2019

My wife has recently bought a June 2018 Fabia 1.0TSi (110) SEL with a manual gearbox. Should this car have Hillhold? The driver manual & brochure seem to suggest it should (as do Autotrader listings), but either the car doesn't have it fitted or its not operating.

I keep records of total mileage & all petrol purchases. Dividing one by the other gives an accurate measure of overall mpg. On my last 2 VAG cars this method showed the cars' read-outs to be around 5% optimistic.
-
Thanks for that. I just wasn't looking carefully enough. You are correct. I've now deleted the 'long term' mpg data & preserved the 'since start' & 'since refueling' data. So still have the data from the start of our ownership of the car.
-
Thanks. I'll try that tomorrow.
-
Thanks for the quick reply. I want to avoid, if possible, doing a 'factory reset' & then having to re-enter all my preferences into the system. Perhaps that's the only way to remove the previous owner's mpg data. I'll have another search through the menus and screen prompts tomorrow.

I recency purchased a May 2019 Fabia SEL. I wish to delete the previous owner's mpg data from the infotainment system, but can't find how to do this. Is it possible? If so, how?
-
Thanks, Carlston, for taking the time to type all that. Useful info & gives me lots to think about. I hadn't realised that the 110 had bigger front brakes than the 95.
