Sorry, just realised that it's the part number of the sensor retaining bolt you wanted...

Yeah, that's the one that normally blows.

Ah, thank you, Ryan

Haha, I don't know how to make it shorter.

If you really want to use the LEDs, you need this kind of thing... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/384658397972?

The word 'Skoda' in Czech translates as ''damage'' 😉

Found one of his....

The member called AnnoyingPentium (Ryan) has recently put a towbar on his Fabia. I'm sure he'll be along with pics.

Looking good, Ryan 🙂 My battery has decided it doesn't like this cold weather. Very slow to crank on first start today. Probably have to get one.

There should be an oblong hole so that you can insert a ratchet or whatever suitable tool to be able to turn it to release the spring tension on the belt. There is a screw (6mm Allen head) to remove inside the hole before doing this (see my next post).

You can't do a proper crimp with mole grips. Flat jaws are no good, you need a tool that can pinch.

You can tap the CV joint off the driveshaft with a hammer but it's easier with the puller.

I just jacked my engine under the sump with a block of wood on the jack. It's a pretty light engine. Engine mounting bolts? Yeah, you're supposed to but I just reused mine and the engine hasn't fallen out yet 😁

I'm sure some of them manage a quick one in the toilet.

The electronics for the windows are in the drivers' window motor & can fail. I would also check the wires inisde the rubber door bellows as they can snap. I had it on mine where they were making intermittent contact.
