  1. Oh i didn't knew this. On the other hand there is no problem with the pressure inside the whole system with 600+ ml more on it?
  2. So more quantity of oil = more time to get heat the whole amount, yes but in every day cool driving in City how much "dangerous" heat can be generated inside the gear box? In a track day yes but in traffic?
  3. Do you need something more about Felicia A/C? https://www.skodabook.ru/en/remain/Felicia/power/cooling/sistema-kondicionirovaniya-informaciya-i-predostorozhnosti
  4. But from previous change some quantity of oil will remain inside,can not 100% come out no matter what. On top of it 3 litres?
  5. 75W-90 GL-4 gear oil, 2.2-2.4 litres Skoda says change after 60.000 Km but i will do a change after 30-40.000 Km
  6. When i find time i will show what i have done. The idea began about 22 years ago but back then there was no help,no internet,no forums and not lot of choices for materials.
  7. You need thin ones for this task but you won't get great results, for improving the ''rolling quality'' as we say here in GR (means reducing the sound while travelling in Highway) you need to buy plastic arches and install noise insulation beneath them. Some cars as Lexuts have them on from the factory. You can make a wheel-arch sound improving but this means cost and adds some weight.
  8. Ι stongly suggest to look BENEATH the carpets,you may find dust-mud or corrosion marks from all these years and you must make a thoroughly cleaning. I am speaking by bad experience of course...
  9. Replacing gearbox seals (Skoda Felicia) in english. https://www.skodabook.ru/en/remain/Felicia/transmission/gearbox/zamena-salnikov-korobki-peredach
  10. Run your car normally till gets hot and the radiator spins,turn the heat to 4th scale and keep if for a while Sto and raise the hood while the engine is running at idle Wear gloves and take a cloth-towel,squeeze gently any coolant house you can reach especially the main,this will push the air bubbles to go to the top Cover the cap from the coolant expansion tank with the cloth-towel,unscrew it extremely softly,if a ''hisss" sound heard means you had air bubbles,continue and loosen one click more,maybe the ''hisss" sound will be heard again maybe not,one click more and the cap it's easily loosen till comes out By the way check the inside of the expansion tank for any detritus Turn of the heat to 0 and turn off the engine,screw the cap back but not with extremely force Return home and leave the car to cool off completely at night,next morning check the cap because one click tighten maybe needed (maybe not). You can check for leaks in a repair-shop,they have at least 2 ways to raise the pressure in the system and if there is a problem then coolant drops will show-up in the problematic spot.
  11. If there is a Kit is available,i have bought and install it,very good results. In engine bay there is the clutch cable,use a plier to hold steady the hexagon part (A) and with the other hand use a 10mm wrench to loosen the bolt (B) few clicks.
  12. No Felicia. This is in english language:
  13. With the change of Gear Oil this additive could help: Liqui Moly Gear Oil Additive MoS2 https://www.liqui-moly.com/en/gear-oil-additive-p000009.html#tab-label-description-title
  14. https://www.skodabook.ru/en/remain/Felicia Click in the categories on right column whatever you interested.
  15. Ream my thread "Skoda Felicia gear box leak" https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/524227-skoda-felicia-gearbox-leak/ I bought and installed this: VAG 002301227B VIKA 005415197 (FORD Transit has the same) https://kritosparts.gr/Part/TSIMOUXA-EPILOGEA-002301227B/eG13002301227B
  16. I know it by ''first hand'', 4 different scanning tools no faults at all but the fuel consumprion was terrible. Step-by-step alone manage to find many small problems (no error codes), i have posted many photos of them in the past. A simple test with a manometer can show it. Bosch rtefference caused me problem and the scanner could found anything wrong,NGK (the original) was the solution.
  17. But @Luck didn't mention yet anything about a scanner tool,does not know if there are any codes. He found that the culprit was the DIS coilpack but he didn't said how. The local repair-shop has not a VCDS or any scanner to run a check?
  18. I don't think so,i have try it in the past for door seals 0 (zero) results,even in the aftermarket area the mechanic couldn't find something.
  19. This is for Felicia Some people sell the same as VW Genuine part eBayVag Caddy Mk2 Pickup 1997 2001 Fuel Gauge Genuine 6U09190...Part Number: 6U0919045C. Caddy Mk2 Pickup 1997 - 2001. ONLY GENUINE PARTS. of your car and we will check if the part fits specifically your vehicle. Used Car Parts. A TTENTION !! Service Kits. The cluster gauge is from VDO a German company (Vereinigte DEUTA - OTA). The Favorit had a different design cluster,the maker was PAL a Cz company. https://pal-wiping-systems.com/produkty/
  20. The seals are prone to failure no matter the edition. My point was that water is very sneaky, i have seen it in MX-5 too. Also my rear windshield seal had a problem once, only in one spot and only in uphill and after heavy rain, in all other occasions nothing happened and this caused me a headache. Here was the result:
  21. It's a perfect idea, take a look an example (not my Felicia) from where the water was coming inside the trunk. Only when the car was in uphill (lot of rain towards the trunk), sneaky wan entering beneath the seal, behind the plastic covers (not visible from outside) and drop-by-drop inside the trunk. In light rain or when the car was straight-downhill nothing happened,was a real painful situation, no matter how i had tried (sealing the tail lights etc) i could fins the reason. The only way after a lot of efforts was this: one mechanic was outside with water-hose and the other inside, after some minutes of waiting the real cause was found. We won ! 😁
  22. The European Union is set to overhaul the continent’s transport sector with a sweeping plan to phase out older passenger vehicles. The initiative targets the gradual removal of polluting and unsafe cars from European roads, beginning in 2026 with vehicles meeting Euro 1 standards, and extending to all models up to Euro 6 by 2050. Greece, with one of the oldest car fleets in Europe, is at the center of this transition. The average age of Greek private vehicles exceeds 17 years, compared to a European average of 12 to 13 years. Under the EU proposal, developed in collaboration with the European Automobile Manufacturers’ Association (ACEA), cars that fail to meet modern safety and emissions standards will be retired in stages: 2026: Euro 1 vehicles (1992–1996) 2030: Euro 2 vehicles (1996–2000)
