  1. HI, ive recently purchased a 1.4 fabia, everything was grand untill I run out off fuel , now when I try and start the car the immboliser is kicking in, is there a fix without going too the stealers ps the key has been replaced with an audi key, the orginal key opens the doors but doesnt operate the ignition thanks in advance tommy
  2. the dealer IS replacing the rear axle, plus throwing a set off rear tyres. RESULT
  3. 2006 skoda superb a friend has the above car and has been bringn it back and forth too the dealers with a complaint '' like driving with flat tyres'', to be told by the dealers that there was nothin wrong. after noticing that the tyres at the rear were wearing away in the inside he went to a tyre dealers too check rear wheel alingnment to be told that the rear axle is the cause and it needs replaced. Is it true that rear axles are not covered under warranty. Car has 60,000 miles with full dealer S/H
  4. over the phone, the mechanic thinks it could be the pulley at the end of the alternator (says its motorised). but when you pul;l the belt tighter it works fine
  5. 2004 skoda superb 1.9 my belt has been squeaking, but now its not turning, there is a lot of slack on belt, is there an adjuster on these, is it easy to do. about approx 6 mths i replaced the belt and tensioner any clues, it doesnt look likme any tensioner are faulty
  6. recently my superb is lossing its speed especially on tackling hills, someone has said it could possibly be air flow meter How could I test the air flow meter Also i have been running on occassions on bio-derv car has been recently serviced
  7. iv'e tried bio-derv a few times with no loss off power etc
  8. 2004 skoda superb 1.9 Im a local taxi driver using approx 100 ltrs a off diesel week which cost approx £100, Ive seen that you can pour straight veg oil drectly into the tank, or with a slight mix which enables too cut costs, I dnt want too produce bio-derv, just looking a cheap and easy option 1 has any1 tried this 2 does this need to be mixed with anything 3 what MPG would you be likely too achieve thanks tommy
  9. the metal lugs are unable too push out as the orginal plastic double case is still in place
  10. I just changed my standard radio with a flip out tv/dvd, the problem is there is no were too secure the 'cage' too, is there any way off securing the unit. I drive a 2004 superb 1.9 thanks
  11. My front window squeaks when going up and down, anyone encountered this problem I drive a 2004 superb 1.9
  12. was he mixing the VEG oil or just pouring it straight in the t5ank. That would be some saving on todays prices
  13. I have let the fuel run too empty and filled with normal diesel and it has improved. Regarding power/economy etc, normally bio-diesel is identical too normal diesel but cheaper. I reckon I have just encountered a bit off dirt in the fuel.
  14. IM A CAB DRIVER AND TRIED THIS SEVERAL TIMES TODAY WITHOUT JOY, LEFT THE CAR FOR A FEW HOURS THERE NOW AND IT STARTF 1ST TIME. NOT TOO SURE OFF THE MIXTURE (OIL/CHIP FAT)
