  1. Has you Felicia a central lock-unlock button in the console or dashboard?
  2. I want to install a switch in the console or dashboard to lock-unlock the doors. Can be done the way i see it in this video? I want to do it for two reasons: First sometimes with my elbow i press the lock pin and then when i want to come out it's awkward to pull it with my hand Second for security reasons, i don't want to do this movement when something dangerous happens. Must buy a specific pin numbers switch or a Universal can do the job? The work can be done from the driver's side (remove panel etc) ?
  3. Here we call them "car hoods", the cheap ones no matter if they say "waterproof" they aren't. After long hour rain will absorb water and problems will show up: Moisture, bad smell, mold, blur in body paint etc.
  4. Since Brexit, goods exported from the UK to anywhere in the European Union (EU) are subject to import duties and taxes. A Value Added Tax of 24% is usually levied on goods entering Greece from the UK. Customs duties are calculated as per TARIC (integrated tariff of the European Union).
  5. In ebay.co.uk there is an extra charge (Customs) when you go to the Post Office for delivery. I paid that extra for my EBC brake pads bought from Uk parts e-shop (not ebay).
  6. As for the record: In GR of the total of 8.9 million taxpayers, 67.7% of the total, i.e. six million taxpayers, declare an individual income of up to 10,000 euros. They share 28% of the total income (i.e. 24 billion euros) and pay 4.93% of the total tax, i.e. 400 million euros. Freelancers are the biggest tax evaders. From 10,000 to 20,000 euros is declared by approximately one in four. There are 2.07 million individuals with a cumulative income of €30 billion (i.e. 35% of the total), who also pay 30% of the total personal income tax (approximately €2.4 billion). It has been calculated that for 175 out of the 365 days of the year, Greeks are expected to work in 2024 just to pay taxes and contributions to the state. They don't pay taxes (not even a public transport ticket) the Gypsies and foreign "immigrants" but they get all the allowances (paid of course by the others). @Thefeliciahacker you must pay attention to the tyres, the car-cover does not protect them 100% and you need a board beneath each tyre so won't touch the asphalt. A rubber-care product will also help them due to summer.
  7. For educational purposes: The Chevy Bowtie emblem on the “normal” 2014 Camaro is a large, textured gold form with a chrome trim piece running around the border. The Bowtie badge is designed with aerodynamics in mind, but having any solid object across the grille can affect air flow – even if only by a small amount. After all, that small amount could be the difference between winning a race and losing to a car with an engine running a little cooler late in the race. The Z/28’s Flowtie has only the chrome outer edge and the middle is left open to allow 3 addition cubic meters of air to enter the engine bay each minute. This allows the engine coolant and the engine oil to both run about 2 degrees (F) cooler and that translates to more durability and more power during the rigors of road racing. https://www.torquenews.com/106/even-chevy-bowtie-grille-emblem-camaro-z28-high-performance 2014 Chevy Camaro Z/28 - Increasing Air Flow 'Flowtie' Badge The results were a win. Affectionately referred to as the “Flowtie” by the engineering team, the hallowed out bowtie added just enough airflow to the engine to cool it by a staggering 2 degrees during track sessions. 2 degrees may not seem like a enough to justify the production of a new emblem but when you are developing the most track capable Camaro ever built everything counts and the modified bowtie earner its spot on all Z28 Camaros. https://www.newroads.ca/flowtie-chevy-camaro-flowtie/
  8. https://www.pancarshop.gr/koukoula-autokinitou-me-thermokollimeni-rafi-paragogis-mas-poiotita-carbon-kodikos-11004-6/ https://www.autoamortiser.gr/autokinito/prosfores_accessories/koukoula-aftokinitou-nylon-autoparts Tyres (sides) need extra protection from the sun, it "fries them" as we say here.
  9. Check all the plugs behind the fuse box, slack corrosion etc. In the past i had problem with them due to a flood. Lights, wiper didn't work constantly but with interruption. I have done it in the past with quality set cables, "ground kit" they call it back then.
  10. Thermostat sensor, has a distinctive Blue ring around. It's a brand name? When did you installed this one? This is a radiator switch, what 'C scale is yours? 80-85, 85-90, 95-100 ?
  11. Update: The TC-6 comes with it's own temperature sensor, since i already have 2 small digital gauges in the central console for in-out temperature i have the thought to make this as: ''incoming air sensor" inside the air filter box. it's already has a hole and i can use it to put a small screw and attach it inside the (modified) air filter box. One tiny hole, the cable comes out and i will ask from the electrician to make an extension of the existing cable and a small plug so if i had to remove and carry away the air filter box this wire won't be a restriction. I can't think any other use of that sensor.
  12. Thse are the thermostats !!! I said about the radiator switch, mine is 80-85 'C in purpose due to the hot climate and Mountain roads routes. I had a similar problem like you, first i changed the radiator switch with one with lower scale plus the coolant sensor with one with Blue ring the mechanic had installed one with Yellow ring, that damned never worked properly and cause me nothing than problems with high temperature indications in the cluster gauge.
  13. In 1.3 the thermostat first opens at 87-88 'C, yours? Maybe it's wrong type and opens much latter? Since GR climate is hot i have installed 80-85 'C thermoswich, maybe you have a wrong type ie 92-98 'C thus the initial overheating symptoms?
  14. You have removed the air bubbles from the system? Checked if there a small leak from the expansion tank cap or any hose? The antifreeze ratio in the coolant is?
  15. When you say "overheating" the temperature exceeds the 100 'C in the first fan scale?
  16. Some manufactures have done not rigid strut braces https://justjap.com/cdn/shop/files/cusco-front-strut-brace-type-alc-os-aluminium-carbon-fits-mazda-rx-7-fd3s-125.jpg?v=1713134137 In case of side hit (road accident) they ''brake'' and save the opposite side from deformation but in some supercars they have a strong-rigid Δ or X style. https://gpower-usa.com/cdn/shop/files/M4CSL-StrutBrace-2_1024x1024_jpg.webp?v=1712607924 The common believe here is that Felicia in rear has semi-rigid axle so a rear strut brace won't help at all.
  17. The yellow and the orange (which are alone in the middle) are for the radiator switch.
  18. The cables in the ECU are exposed, no plug cap. This means that dust, moisture, water etc are coming.
  19. For the 1.3 the Skoda accessories catalog was offering an ''inox'' look one, the one that i have. For 1.6 is that black that @Felicia98noob has. https://mathewsons.blob.core.windows.net/stock/13380-19-medium.jpg?v=63831253507810
  20. If you connect the 2 cables that are attached to the radiator switch (it's like to take a command from the system) the fan must start spinning.
  21. First you can try by youreself, there is a bolt in the centre when you remove the horn, pull out gently the steering wheel and put it back where you want (the wheels must be straight). Otherwise you have to go to a repair shop for this task, the mechanic will calibrate it in few minutes, the cost is 20 euro here. It's difficult to reach it where it is, 2 clamps at least plus one that keeps it in place. The electrician can do it opening when the key is On 1 scale or turn on-off any time you want, in GR i older years the electrician was ask you first of all ''with the key on or not"? Some guys want to have music in their car even when it's off, it's risky because if you forget it can ruin your battery. You can not make it smoother or harder, all you can do it's to adjust it lower of higher position compared to the other pedals, there is a bolt in the end of it's wire inside the engine bay.
