Handbrake Issue - Only one side working
You will most likely need to rebuild or replace the calliper, the cable will be fine.

Headlights abroad 2015 Roomster
I have never found a lever on 2011 Roomster with the same headlights.

Roomster tailgate power supply issues.
I've nicked this picture from another thread but I think I would be inspecting this plug and earthing point.

Dwindling Roomsters
I regally see another 5 to me locally, according to the how many left website, the numbers are of course dropping year-on-year but not dramatically although the numbers on the roads wasn't very high in the first place.

Rear seatbelt not retracting
It is worth trying to clean the belt with silicon-based cleaner such as https://www.autoglym.com/vinyl-rubber-care.html

Roomster not starting
I understand that the 5v is generated by the ECU, from your description it now sounds more like a damaged wire or connector

Roomster not starting
The codes in full are: P0642 Sensor Reference Voltage A Circuit Low P0408 Exhaust Gas Recirculation Sensor B Circuit High P0341 Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit Range/Performance P0236 Turbocharger Boost Sensor A Range/Performance Unlike a faulty crankshaft sensor, a faulty camshaft position sensor doesn’t normally stop the engine from starting. I would be concerned that if the engine doesn’t start with a fully charged battery that the ECU maybe unhappy after the jump start.

Roomster not starting
Doing some quick research, the common link with some of the codes is with the 5 volt reference not being at 5V. I am assuming that the 12v battery was checked by the RAC is OK?

Central locking not working
Just to clarify, does the C/L work with the interior button or is the issue just with the fobs?

Picture of blown passenger airbag? Fabia 2 would help too
This may give you some idea of how the airbag is installed and what is behind it. https://youtu.be/cr8IIU1RkLk?si=Dioc1-moYcBEtMAc

Clueless and seeking parts advice
I couldn't open the files directly so I've converted the pictures to jpg It is the bumper cover, the part number seems to be PR-8X0,

Shall I return it? Failure to start and TSi scaremongering
It sounds electrical to me, perhaps an intermittent relay fault. I have a 2011 Roomster with a TSi engine that is just about to notch up 120K miles so whilst I acknowledge there can be issues with the engine I am not sure how widespread it actually is.

I would start with checking that the alternator is working correctly and isn't producing low voltage or high voltage (should be around 14.6V with the engine running).- Coolant thermostat location
The housing is number 7 in the illustration, it is at the back of the engine (gearbox end) I would connect an OBD scanner that can do live data to see what temperature is being measured by the temperature sensor.- Graham62
It begs the question why the belts have been removed in the first place, and did it get an MoT in that state? Not sure I would trust universal belts from eBay.- Roomster bootlid loom repair
Something like this will do: https://www.toolstation.com/minotaur-ratchet-crimping-tool/p46714- Coolant leaking out
The water pump is at the other end of the engine, could possibly be the thermostat.- Roomster Electrical Nightmare
I would also start by checking for broken wires between the car body and the hatchback https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/497263-sencom-tailgate-loom-repair/- High level brake light not working
It could be a sign of damaged wire(s) between the tailgate and the main body of the car, I would carefully pull off the rubber boot from the body and check for damage.It could be a sign of damaged wire(s) between the tailgate and the main body of the car, I would carefully pull off the rubber boot from the body and check for damage.- 1.2 tsi
I think by 2015 they had moved back to using a belt instead of a chain.- Roomster Rear offside door stuck shut.
I had the same issue with my previous Rooster, I could get the door to open by sitting in the car and locking it using the button on the centre console, then pressing the console button at the same time giving the door handle a quick pull – often it would take a few goes to get the timing right and of course may not be able to work for you. If you buy a new lock be careful as a lot of suppliers seem to think the Fabia look is the same as the Roomster lock and it isn’t quite the same. I ended up importing one from Slovakia for around €120 as opposed to the £200+ a local dealer wanted just for the part.- Roomster buying advice
It can be the door locks or just not enough slack in the cables in the belows between the body and the door so the wires snap over time. Our second Roomster seems to have less issues with the actual locks but it did snap all the wires to the rear hatch. - dashboard light gremlins
