Mystery Whining and Grinding Noise
I would not buy a Vika for such a ''crucial'' part, there are some other brands in the market, for example here and here and here . Here is mine https://ntotsikasparts.gr/product/aquaplus-antlia-nerou-skoda-felicia-1-3-96-6-loukia-10691-85-5705/ installed 4 years ago.

Felicia 1.3 Throttle Body Sensor, how to check it?
D.FYLAKTOS replied to D.FYLAKTOS's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda Forman047133061 PIERBURG 5WP4270 With that code the Google Search results wer disappointingly but searching with just the code 047133061 the results were just a little bit better. The price for new here in the local market is at least 320-370 € and of course no one sells the 7 pin connector it self. Here a guy manage to open it from the side. Of course i don't dare to alone such a thing.

D.FYLAKTOS replied to Mustafa_Samir's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda FormanAn extreme example from Usa shipping to Egypt US $90.00 (approx EUR 88.40) eBay International Standard Delivery and another from Uk shipping to Egypt GBP 30.19 (approx EUR 34.63) Expedited Shipping (International Priority Shipping) Things are tough when you are in economic hardship.

Skoda Felicia 1.6 litre AEE engine oil amount with filter when changing engine oil ?
D.FYLAKTOS replied to Mustafa_Samir's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda FormanShipping rates from Usa are outrageous, many times are 200% than the price of the product it self. I thought i was the only fussy guy because my Felicia takes 3.40 to reach the 70 'C

Boot light
D.FYLAKTOS replied to mikefelicia's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda FormanPoland-Hungary-Czechia are not so ''welcome'' in may EE countries and in USA because they don't accept their agenda in many political things and way of ''modern'' life (personally they do the right thing and here in Greece we respect them very much for this). Your Boot light is awesome and looks ''factory'', may years back when i installed mine i din't had that idea and now i regret it a llitle bit. Maybe in the future i will change it with a Led-Stripe, i need lot of light in the trunk becauise many times i work with my car at night or in a dark parking lot etc.

Skoda Felicia with an Oil Catch Can?
D.FYLAKTOS replied to D.FYLAKTOS's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda FormanNo oil or muck in the throttle or even in the tube, what i saw there at 1:08 was a shock: Different type of engine of course but i read about carbon deposits in valves and since i have an old car maybe this Oil Catch Can could heped me over time.

Skoda Felicia with an Oil Catch Can?
Can a Felicia owner have some benefits from installing a device like this? I have read many articles and i have seen many videos but for turbo cars although here in this forum there is a thread about Fabia 16V https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/481634-fabia-mk2-14-16v-oil-catch-can/?do=findComment&comment=5410097 but since Felicia is an older generation car i wonder if it's good to have an Oil Catch Can. What say you?

Mystery Whining and Grinding Noise
When you press the clutch pedal the noise stops? Many times when you start the car at morning when it's cold you hear that noise too? It's a rythmic noise ''kar-kar-kar'' the same tempo with car's idle noise?

In the past i had Eibach and the latest years i have Apex. I am trying to avoid not famous brands in such products, the risk is big.

Mystery Whining and Grinding Noise
The weak point in CV shafts is the boot. After years and miles of turning and bumping up and down with the suspension the boots weaken and begin to tear. A torn CV boot allows the grease to leave the joint and road dirt, water and other contaminates to enter the joint. Contaminants inside of the joint cause friction which creates accelerated wear on the internal components in the joint and creates play inside of the joint. Once a CV shaft has failed you can hear a loud click, click, click noise when turning the vehicle and slowly accelerating. https://www.timsquality.com/blog/cv-shafts--what-are-they-and-how-do-they-fail-

Skoda Felicia 1.6 litre AEE engine oil amount with filter when changing engine oil ?
D.FYLAKTOS replied to Mustafa_Samir's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda FormanI know because Greeks named that city as did in hundreds of others in the area. Alexander the Great is Iskandar in Middle East right? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iskandar Alexandria in Greek is Αλεξανδρεια which means ''the city which named by Alexander", the same applies for example to Antiochia (named by the Greek Antiochos) etc. This brand can be found here in Greece since 2000 but it's not too famous https://www.yiannitsaros.com/product/anti-freeze-5l-green/ In the green says TL 774-G (G-11) ,there must be a mistake it's TL 774-C https://www.iada.es/en/product/glycogel-hybrid-50-g-11-2/ Few years ego i was using another Spanish brand Repsol G11, fantactic but difficult to find it here now.

New brake discs-pads for Felicia, any suggestions?
D.FYLAKTOS replied to D.FYLAKTOS's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda FormanNot enough. https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/499328-how-much-time-do-you-warm-up-your-felicia/?do=findComment&comment=5663261 IF i had the money to buy a new car (a faster car) plus the money to pay the damages every year (i park the car in the road which means scratces-small hits etc) plus the extra money for insurance and government taxes plus the money for the extra accessories (ECU-chip, new suspension,new rims and tyres, new strut barce-anti roll bar, cotton gauze filter, custom exhaust, racing belt etc) then i would aksing here. So i stick with the car that i have. 😉 People are dying ✝️ beside the Speed, some from excessive food-drink consumption while sitting in the couch watching all day tv.

D.FYLAKTOS replied to Mustafa_Samir's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda FormanMe and @Mustafa_Samir are the same, we don't have english as first languagge so we don't understand ''complex'' meanings and i think some memebers from Middle East use Google Translation to write here in english. It's not bad, would do the same if i was trying to write in a Czech forum for Felicia.

D.FYLAKTOS replied to Mustafa_Samir's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda FormanNo matter how you make the oil change some will remain inside, the same thing happens with coolant, the same with gear oil. 3,5 ltr is what Skoda suggests, there is no gain if you put 4 ltr (will cause you problems) and don't be surprised if finally it takes 3,4 ltr. My Felicia takes 4,5 ltr, i can put 5 ltr but this IS NOT good, in my latest change took 4,3 ltr (with new filter installed) https://oil-change.info/skoda-felicia-engine-oil-capacity/ https://cararac.com/engine_oil/skoda/felicia.html https://www.whichoil.info/skoda/felicia-1-6 Drain as much oil as you can, put the new filter, add 3 litres of oil, turn on-off the engine to soak some oil into the filter, check the oil stick, add oil carefully to the Max, it make take 3,3 or 3,4 or 3,5 ltr.
