Intermittent shudder / misfire Fabia VRS MK2
Sounds like they have damaged the vacuum pipe while changing the plugs , there’s a few posts on here about it , if not they could have damaged the coil packs / wiring and or not correct spark plugs at correct gap

2011 Skoda fabia vrs auto box ecu issues help
You can replace the pressure vessel yourself for very little money in fairness the repair kits are on eBay , so saying it needs a new ecu when the vessel is faulty is complete nonsense , I know a gearbox specialist who would be able to fix it but it’s a bit away from you might be worth sending them the mechatronics unit ?

DSG maxidot gear blinking
My Dsg failed around the same mileage that’s why I did a dq200 to dq250 swap which could be worth looking into if the gearbox fails

Annoying crunch noise over speed bumps
Could be a broken spring ? Or a failing suspension gas strut

Horrid noise on cold start - tensioners on their way?
I would be replacing the oil pump and replacing the oil as a matter of urgency if you keep getting oil pressure warnings and also cleaning the oil pick up line in the sump it’s potentially gummed up

Sounds like the timing chain struggling to tension due to low oil pressure

Fabia MK2 VRS 'The Red Baron'
Hi mate project is pretty much complete gearbox works fine just making a proper mount for the gearbox as you need essentially a hybrid mount between the dq200 mount and the dq250 mount , I’m starting a new project soon that I will be posting on here , I’m taking a rover k series turbo engine out of a rover 75 and mating it to a dq250 gearbox from a golf R and sticking it in a mg zr.

Another Misfire Post
Hi mate not saying this will be a one stop fix for yourself but a good fix is to fit an uprated plug (not the oem plug that Skoda/vw fit) in tandom with changing from standard coil packs to Audi R8 coil packs should fix any missfires that are not piston ring/ burnt valves related

Bit Of a messy install that for a gauge good sir , could you not of engineered a nice vent gauge pod? something properly engineered like this would do the trick not just stuck through the vent 👍

Not hurt at all , just pathetic how you have to comment stuff like that as if it’s a contest are you unhappy with your own life that beating someone in a straight line gives you some sort of satisfaction I wouldn’t waste my petrol against you , I tell you what why not do a run down on how much you have spent on the Monte Carlo to get it to the power yours is and I will do the same and I’ll laugh at how much money you’ve put into a base model fabia I bet my spending is a tenth of yours for more power 😂🤣😂🤣 #darksidefanboy , oh and throwing money at darkside developments doesn’t make you part of there motorsport team it makes you a customer your that far up there ar*e it’s like the darkside human centipede

Ah I see start trying to comment on grammar because you can’t take the truth about making snide comments about other platform vehicles (diesel vs petrol) you wouldn’t stand a chance against a Dsg fabia vrs especially one that has a Dq250 box with a quaife LSD and can hit 2.0bar of boost at the Rev limit wheel spin or no wheel spin but hey you can always hope can’t you kidda 👍 maybe you can slap a few more stickers on for more horsepower so you can stand a chance.
