Skoda Felicia central console modification
I know that i have posted in 3-4 other topics the photos of my modified console (in various stages) but i think it's proper to have them all in one topic plus informations for the step by step procedure. Maybe another member will read it and try to modify his or someone can find via Google Search the photos and have an inspiration. I have done an Upgrade in mine and in the future i will make another one modification so let's take everything from the beginning. Note: Some photos are from internet and not mine, when i bought the car i had no internet nor was a forum member so i have no pictures of my Felicia interior from this era. I bought it like this, with that clumsy gear lever knob and those 2 cupholders which of course could use because there were not secure. I bought also a ''drawer" that fits in that console but was not so practical because the item inside were not stabilised. I changed that useless plastic knob the first day and after some times i installed 2 analogue gauges where the cupholders were. No e-shop purchases so i bought 2 Veglia (old-time yellow colour halogen bulbs) with a hidden switch and as you can imagine some nights (weekend) i forgot them On and ruin my battery. I had to do something else for these gauges plus change the handbrake,i never liked that plastic case that it had...

Remote Central Locking
D.FYLAKTOS replied to TrentBarton's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda FormanAnother 2 relative photos: The arrow shows the position of the key to cancel the alarm device (e.g. due to a repair) The reason that i post these photos is to find an idea to relocate mine,due to noise insulation that area is covered and it would be difficult to find it. When you have not front strut brace the procedure (remove batter-install new) it's easy,in mine it's a difficult task and you have to remove it in inclination pushing a bit the plastic cover of washers-windshield wipers.

Skoda Felica magnetic oil drain plug
D.FYLAKTOS replied to D.FYLAKTOS's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda FormanUpdate: I manage to find the proper size oil drain plug and YES i manage to lost the original photo as i bought it. I went it to a lathe-machine shop and i bought an AH grade Neodymium magnet. Use again JB Weld epoxy glue (Temperature resistant up to 300 ° C) I have to wait for some months to install it,would be when it's time for a oil change. Hope there would be no problems.

Car door lock barrel change
I use Silicone spray in locks even in my house,i consider the WD-40 as ''anti-rust'' product although i have my doubts that tiny grains of rust when removed where are they going? Maybe among the mechanism which ''shred'' them? If the mechanism can not ''washed out'' soon or later those grains will ''snug'' somewhere inside.

Car door lock barrel change
Update: I bought from UK store and gave to my mechanic to install that Ω shape Door lock repair part and YES my driver's side lock work as it should be after so many months ! The ''click'' is a bit ''tougher'' compared to the passenger's door but i think is due to the different material and the 2nd lock has been used more.

exhaust smoking a bit
1) Scanner (for error codes) ? What's the status of: 2) spark plugs-air filter-fuel injectors-fuel filter? 3) ignition coil test? Same gasoline station all the time? Have you changed the ECU? Catalyst converter and Lambda sensor is the original?

Warning error code
D.FYLAKTOS replied to frenchinvader's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda FormanI remember an older topic for Felicia engine start button which i wanted to install. https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/520850-skoda-felicia-with-engine-start-button/#findComment-5836781 The very next month that company (Chinese usually) may close and there is no way to find spare parts plus when a problem show-up and go to the electrician the most common answer is: ''i don't know this, there are no diagrams so i can not do anything about it". So you have to remove it or if you are possessed with that function you buy from another brand, you pay to install it and after few months or years again the same. The tragedy is when the problem show-up in a trip to the country or in National Highway, the solution is a tow truck and back home and your vacations are ruined.

Warning error code
D.FYLAKTOS replied to frenchinvader's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda FormanFor sure the fuse-bulbs are OK since you have the blinks. As @R_U_AFA said check your alarm, discontinue it (remove it's own plug) and made a test, if the multiple blink stops the it's the culprit because it was giving the command. ''Retirez temporairement l'alarme de votre voiture (débranchez-la). Si les clignotements cessent, c'est bien elle qui est en cause''.

I'm considering what I can do to reduce smoky exhaust - any tips?
Lambda sensor it's not for morning start only. https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/503246-confusion-with-bosch-lambda-sensors/ https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/503246-confusion-with-bosch-lambda-sensors/page/2/#findComment-5652665 Back then the car started-accelerated ''as it should be'' but due to that lambda sensor (which was ''OK'' by the parts catalogue) the fuel consumption was 14,7 ltr/100 Km or 19.21 UK Mpg which was far the worst number i had ever seen.

IF it's the stock (NGK) a replace with a new (NGK only) would do only good.

The Lambda sensor is the original with so many Km's on it?

I'm considering what I can do to reduce smoky exhaust - any tips?
Yes, it's the only way to read them no matter if it's amateurish like OBD 11 or Professional like a VAG-COM scan tool in a repair shop. You also need an emissions check from a repair shop,will help you pass the MoT test.

You can reset the ECU very easy by yourself BUT if there is an error code for a real problem this will show-up again. You have to make an ECU-test to see if there is a specific code that will guide you, changing random parts won't help to solve the problem, it's a ''guess'' job.
