  1. In the 1:00 of the video something is not working properly. Fancy but imagine to have to shut-down the engine immediately and start "click and click" and the engine won't turn off what's going to happen?
  2. The cost here in GR varies from 12,00 € the most simple till 52,00 € ,the most expensive has remote controls.
  3. https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/359108-heater-blower-problem/ I hope this will help a bit.
  4. 102'C and the radiator fan still is Off? and then starts at 100 'C and you find this ''super effective" ?
  5. In ancient Greece there was a wisdom, «Ουδέν κακόν αμιγές καλού» translated is "there is no Bad that does not give rise to some Good" which means practically that when a bad thing happens (damage) it's a chance to improvise to make another good thing". So i grab the chance and when i removed the wiper motor, i cleaned the area, opened another 2 draining holes (already had 2), put some insulation, close 2 holes from the licence's plate screws (i have magnetic now), take care some cables and put a new thicker nylon as protection behind the factory wooden 5th door cover (drives water drops to the holes).
  6. I bought a Window Glass Cleaning (Squeegee Blade Wiper) just for the car, i will try it for few days. I also have one spare (with sponge) in work and from time to time i was cleaning the rear windshield, i was never ''impressed'' from the cleaning of the factory wiper although i have to admit that is much larger than other cars.
  7. I remember the Max Power UK magazine, back in the 1999 i start buying it because i wanted to learn more about car modifications. There i saw the only one front wiper, here is an example:
  8. I remember that in your car is higher than mine (fuel consumption deleted topic) while moving and was close to 100 (acceleration to 120 km video).
  9. In rain or wind no need to get out of the car now, behind me maybe a motorcycle parked and since the spaces here are very "tight" i can go back (reverse) without fear. In my mirror-camera Topic i have posted relative photos (night and day), even with mirror's help and windscreen wiper functional i can not do what i do in City with my 180 degrees camera. No sound sensors, i hate their repeated sound.
  10. Many cars have no rear windscreen wiper due to vandalism, some as you know don't have from the factory (sedan). The cost for the sue is 100 euros, keep in mind that i am working (no time for waisting) and i have a family to take care, you don't. New item does not solve the "vandalism by investors" problem and the VIKA isn't a guarantee brand for motor.
  11. In my Felicia the 1st radiator fan scale starts one click above 90 'C, even in City Traffic the 1st scale does the job and the needle never goes more than 95 ' C (synthetic engine oil, coolant change every 2 years, thermostat new, thermoswitch 80-85).
  12. No way, i have face it in the past and made some agjustments to prevent this. I never said that i disagree with that.
  13. @Thefeliciahacker said: "the first speed will kick on at 95C" If the 1st opens at 95 'C then the second when it opens? At 100 'C ?
  14. I didn't found it broken, i had to call the insurance agent to see it (delay) plus since i start removing bolts etc the whole procedure was cancelled. That was my electrician said, thus you save money from new motor, no need to buy a 3rd blade, plus the kids won't find any more anything there to bend. We don't have rain often here and very rare i used the rear windscreen wiper plus i wasn't satisfied because many times i had to clear with paper-towel the corners of the windscreen to see clear. Parking with reverse could be a big issue but i have the rear camera and i can see 180 degrees.
  15. I removed the 5th door panel, hear as it was. An attempt to temporary fix with JB Weld glue failed, the thread was almost damaged and nothing could be done plus as you can se in the bottom of the axis a part from the shell it broke. So bye-bye rear windshield wiper motor.
  16. https://th-pettersson.com/cgi-bin/ibutik/AIR_ibutik.fcgi?funk=visa_artikel&artnr=116-2009-29822-1 £211 https://www.larkspeed.com/hr-lowering-springs-1355184/?aditem=1355184 £209.00 https://inter-rally.pl/product-eng-32563-H-R-Lowering-springs-Skoda-Favorit.html 256,19 € The Koni you can rebuild them with original parts and 1 year warranty. @Thefeliciahacker another one like with me with Lowering Springs, we are growing in numbers ! 😁
  17. @R_U_AFA That's for Felicia 1.3 rear https://www.megaparts.eu/en/product/1413740078 but as Used the price is high althouth in this one https://www.b-parts.com/auto-parts/electrical-and-electronic/rear-wiper-motor-skoda-felicia-ii-6u1-13-097858043-097858043-1998-1999-2000-2001-7179873 is outrageous. I can find in the local marker Used for 30 euros (or the VIKA as New) although it's a risk because i don't know how much use it has in the past. Mine except the thread must have a problem with the plastic gears (teflon maybe) so i don't think worth or can anybody will take the responsibility to repair it. Rain in my place is rare and very rare i have used that windshield wiper.
  18. With that Sparco sport steering wheel you just hurt the @Thefeliciahacker heart.
  19. Koni Street (orange) but also Bilstein (black) Sachs can do the task.
  20. Yes i know that he can make in lathe machine a new thread and weld it. That's the Forum for, people help each other, sharing experiences and talk for solutions, giving opinions etc. Now that the damage happened i waver if worth to fix-replace it or be like a sedan which have no rear windshield wiper.
  21. I have tools in my car's trunk, the @Thefeliciahacker has not and does work with his bear hands. I have removed the motor, does not work properly but even if he was the thread is out and in used spare parts store they sell it as "all together" so the axis goes with the motor as "package". I will post photos of the motor when i return home.
  22. The MOT does not care so much for such things, if they ask you you can give an answer (''they broke it last night, i will fix it" and that's it, in the final report won't write an observation. I am on it but i am not optimist because the thread is gone. @Thefeliciahacker No gypsies had nothing to do with this, didn't steal it, it's was a bit of normal wear but the main responsible are the ''investors" which hanging around all night with alcohol-drugs (the suckers pay their allowances) and do damages in cars (mirrors-scratches-tyres-wind shield wipers etc) just for fun or from hate to the locals. @mikefelicia My electrician said to leave it as is (of course i will cover the hole with a plug) because he had the same issue in his car (Renault Megane i think) and does not worth the cost to put new motor. I don't know, after almost 24 years it's hard for me to parting ways from this item although now with my mirror-camera didn't needed it so much.
