vigyaz replied to vigyaz's topic in Skoda Fabia Mk II (2007-2014)

Ill tell the wife to keep an eye on it for now then, if it happens again i might take it in to skoda, i take it instrument clusters have a longer than standard warranty? -
Instrument cluster going dead on the run?
vigyaz replied to vigyaz's topic in Skoda Fabia Mk II (2007-2014)
Thanks for the rapid response there so is this something i should be worrying about ? or just a spontaneous event? -
Hi guys, just looking for a little advice here really, my had been driving her furby today (2012 1.4mpi Fabia mk2), and she apparantly had an issue where the instrument cluster just went totally blank while driving, she pulled over and turned ignition off/on again and it was ok again. now unfortunately she didnt notice whether the speedo / revs needles dropped before she did the beforementioned so a bit unsure. i have a cable / laptop to interrogate the car, and will probably connect it up tomorrow to scan for any potential logged faults, but in the meantime, has anyone else ever come accross this issue before? any help appreciated. Cheers Paul.

Px'd mine in the original post for £2k, so shows how much they might make as it had nothing needed doing to it. Loving my new fiesta now though traitor I know :p

Hi all Been a while since i posted as have had plenty on. Had a looksie in a Ford 'GASP' garage the other week and settled on a new car... Fiesta Zetec S Black edition, due for pickup later this week . Still going to be hanging around here occasionally as my wife still has her 1.4mpi Furby and the community here is great! Any thoughts on the new choice of car feel free to share as would be nice to know if anyone has any large amount of experience with these ecoboost engines. Ta Paul. *forgot pic* (example found on net)

Does anyone have a clue what the part number for my steering wheel is? i cant find it anywhere?! I have the 4 spoke prefacelift fabia steering wheel, and its looked a bit tired since i bought the car so i figured it needs a new one. I want to keep the original airbag unit so i cant change over to one of the newer steering wheels as they are different, its the same as one linked in this post below, http://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/265600-mk1-fabiaoctavia-vrs-steering-wheel/ second steering wheel in the pics. Many thanks for your time, Paul.

58 Skoda Fabia 1.4 TDI PD DPF Greenline
vigyaz replied to neilybs6369's topic in Skoda Fabia Mk II (2007-2014)
Or you could just get a 1.4 tdi PD like mine, (not a greenline) but same engine, and nearly exact same economy, and better yet, no DPF -
May be interested in this, will it fit a pre facelift mk2 fabia ?

What i dont understand is that the cars have no crumple zones at all on them, were the designers of the ride that sure of the electrical safety system on the machine that they disregarded the potential for a collision with another car? stupidity if you ask me, and its the customers who suffer! i work as a maintenance spark for a living, and the machines i work on though not even in direct contact with the public, have stringent safety systems on them which incorporate both an electrical + physical limits / safety's, being that this ride is for the purpose of entertainment surely the ruling on safety shouldve been even more stringent?? a lack of foresight, or a money saving excercise, you decide...

Colleagues not informing me of work done on the machine, neither writing anything in the report book causing issues with the machine running later on and me running round like a headless chicken finding a non existent fault!
