Fabia II 2010 drivers door lock mechanism problem
Crogers replied to lxhall's topic in Skoda Fabia Mk II (2007-2014)
I know this is an old topic, but my wife's mk2 has a issue relating to the drivers door lock and this is the closest match I have found. When locking and unlocking using the remote the lock mechanism seems to move and them seem to rebound as if not moving correctly, I get the same behaviour using the button in the car, but if I use the key in the lock everything works as expected, all doors lock/unlock and alarm engages. I think it's the actual door lock mechanism that's the problem and probably just needs replacing, do we think I am correct or could it be something else? TIA -
Has anyone got any experience fitting a CarPlay compatible head unit into Skoda Fabia mk2 that currently has the Skoda supplied satnav/dab radio. If so can you point out any things to be aware before I buy anything? thanks in advance

I believe it was, I think they tightened someone, it's was 2 cars ago so my memeort isn't 100% if I am honest!

Smartlink Unlocking/Activation option

No, apple only allow certain apps to be accessed from the car, I would say apple maps works as well as google maps for directions in my experience. You can start google maps in the background and it will read out the directions for you, I believe. -

If you follow the simple to use instructions from the thread, they are pretty simple to do, chances of bricking your car are very small. -
So why shouldn't I have winter tyres please?
Crogers replied to Adenuf's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
You also have to be careful with insurance, unless the manufacturer specifies winter tyres as sutible for there vehicles you will invalidate your insurance I believe. -
I don't think any skoda has wireless CarPlay

Skids inplementation of CarPlay is buggy in my opinion, it will fine for weeks and then I get a few days where I have to reset the system (press and hold power button until logo reappears) 3 or 4 times in a row. I had my first service the other day and asked if there was any updates to the software and I was told no. I find this hard to believe after a year since it's release.
