Doors scratched in my Felicia.
D.FYLAKTOS replied to D.FYLAKTOS's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda FormanUnfortunately another ''hit and run'' incident few days ago.Someone turn right more than it should be, his car ''dragged'' on mine and run away. The results: 1) this plastic parts unplugged and broke one support protrusion 2) a crack on the bumpers paint 3) a scratch on the lower part of the bumper 4) that plastic part scratched and unplugged but i manage to put it back. The front fender also has a black stain (the colour of the culprit's car) and the cost for the whole damage is around 250-300 euro (218-262 GBP) which i had to pay from my wallet.

Skoda Felicia recommended fuel
Happened to me only once in a specific gas station with an old employee, the tank was almost empty (in purpose) and i was surprised when i heard the ''clack'' after a while and again another one few seconds later. I asked the employee ''what's happening?" but he turn his body so i couldn't see what's happened, that day this incident ruined my fuel consumption measurements (i didn't had the TC-6) and i never visited this gas station again. In other gas station this never happened.

10" Dash Camera Rearview Mirror in my Felicia
D.FYLAKTOS replied to D.FYLAKTOS's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda FormanUpdate: I visited a Car-Glass branch and the technician glue back the base of the mirror although i think he overdue it with the glue. He insist that there would be no problem with the weight but i ma not 100% sure. Surprisingly the mirror after so many days kept in his memory date/time etc so no need to adjust anything, as you can see it's very helpful because as is ''stand by" you can see at any weather who's or what is behind you and while turning on the Parking mode you can see even your licence plate at 4st scale ! You can park night or day no matter what obstacle is behind you, so as the Americans @nta16 best friends say ''we're back in business". 😁

Skoda Felicia recommended fuel
As a ''general idea'' here is to use them (in a car like Felicia 1.3) when you are going to travel (Highway-Mountain) so you will push the engine in higher rpm so those ''clening'' additives will do better job. Of course it's an unofficial view of the matter although some drivers report betetr performance, one click cleaner valves etc.

10" Dash Camera Rearview Mirror in my Felicia
D.FYLAKTOS replied to D.FYLAKTOS's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda FormanI had the thought to buy a screen (or a tablet maybe) to fit it in the dashboard to have all that assistance plus remove the weight from the mirror. Many told me to don't do it because it will look as an extra and not original so the first night local junkies or g@psies or ''investors'' will brake the glass to steal it. The glass repair stores will start opening tomorrow, if they glue it back will last long or after few years will fall again suddenly?

Engine bay surprises
D.FYLAKTOS replied to D.FYLAKTOS's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda FormanSame here but for a Policeman from just a glance in the sticker the first impression can be made, https://www.carandmotor.gr/sites/default/files/styles/horizontal_rectangle/public/2025-04/aytokollito%20kteo.jpg?itok=sqDarpyR then an online check is following by smartphone or onboard Police interceptor laptop. Also they check for the official black carved stamp if it's on the license plate. Any citizen can check in gov.gr (after Login) for informations about any car (if is on the road or for recycle,original colour,insurance). Same here but not in all patrol cars,especially in the country they haven't yet. When we see a patrol car slowly moving to right lane in Athens with blue light in the same pace as hazard lights then we know that is scanning licence plates of parked cars. Road cameras (around 1388 for start) for Police use started installed from Summer 2025 in Attica,they will used to detect traffic violations (red light-stop sign-use of cellphone-excessive speed etc) and then the fines will show-up to your Revenue Service page.

D.FYLAKTOS replied to D.FYLAKTOS's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda FormanNo,there is a specific day and the limit is 7 days more. If you past this there is a fine: The fine for a late MOT inspection depends on the vehicle category and the time of delay. For passenger cars, the fine can be €16 for a delay of up to 30 days, €33 for a delay of 30 days to 6 months and €65 for a delay of more than 6 months. In addition, the lack of a MOT report in a Police traffic inspection is a traffic violation and is punishable by a fine of €400, which can be reduced to 1/8 (€50) if a valid Technical Inspection Report is presented within 10 days. Each MOT has a specific colour round sticker for the licence plate,shows the month and the year so a Policeman can understand in a second if you are illegal or not. In a traffic stop if you have a 2015 sticker and the year is 2025 then ''you're done", no excuses and no matter what you say you will get a ticket.

D.FYLAKTOS replied to D.FYLAKTOS's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda FormanJust before the MOT test another unpleasant surprise,the mechanic found that the gaiters must be changed. Now at August it's difficult to find an open store for parts due to the Summer vacations so i had to buy whatever was available. Lobro 302749 (6U0498205) https://www.trodo.com/bellow-set-drive-shaft-lobro-302749 Falga 26.1533-0S (6U0498201A) https://www.maxxparts.eu/falga/1321407_falga-26-1533-os?limit=25

Cooling system problem (AGAIN) in my Felicia
D.FYLAKTOS replied to D.FYLAKTOS's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda Forman95715 (414,3) in the Trip meter) so the distance was 414 Km, the last test was in Highway (speed till 120 km/h in ahot Summer noon). The Total consumption was 27,3 litres which is Average 6,59 ltr/Km or 42.87 British MPG. The Ø indication in the TC-6 agreed. This was the last Summer MPG test to see how the combination of G12 and new radiator performed in a well know route, the next will be at Winter. I have another photo to post, was the maximum coolant sensor temperature in high speed and the comparison with the console gauge indication.

GREECE today: The mandatory coverages in car insurance are Third Party Liability and Natural Disasters (such as forest fire, flood, etc.). Third Party Liability coverage covers material damage and bodily injury caused to third parties by your vehicle. The obligation to have insurance in the event of natural disasters applies from 01/01/2025 and concerns all private and commercial vehicles. Explanation: Third Party Liability: This coverage is mandatory and covers damage that your vehicle may cause to third parties, such as other cars, pedestrians, or property. Natural Disasters: From 01/01/2025, all vehicles must be insured for damage caused by natural disasters, such as forest fire, flood, and earthquake. This means that if your vehicle is damaged by any of these phenomena, the insurance company will compensate you. Before 01/01/2025: Car insurance is mandatory by law for every vehicle on Greek roads. The most basic and economical option is simple or basic car insurance, also known as civil liability. Although this is the minimum coverage required, it is important to know exactly what is included and what is not, in order to avoid misunderstandings or unforeseen events in the event of an accident. What does simple car insurance include? First of all, basic insurance covers damage caused by the driver to third parties, whether it is material damage or bodily injury. That is, if a traffic accident occurs for which the insured is responsible, the insurance company will cover the compensation to the other vehicle involved or the people who were injured. This coverage applies either to other vehicles, or to pedestrians or passengers in the other car. In addition, simple insurance usually includes coverage for material damage to third-party property, such as railings, walls, storefronts or public infrastructure, if an accident occurs.

I don't think that it's mandatory to have glass insurance,some drivers to save money they don't buy that option.
