My 2009 Elegance do not.

Something is wrong with your car. My 140 PD is fully heated after 5 miles, started from -15 C!

Any news on compatability with the Nokia N95?
Dealer says 'yes', but he had little idea about a whole bunch of things, so I take anything he says with a pinch of salt.
The N95 works great with the Columbus 2009, I´ve lost the connection twice, but repeating the pairing process did the trick.

Yes Simeon is right, unless you have the electric memory seats then the dipping exterior mirror will not work as it needs the memory software that comes with the seat to enable it to work.
Ian
According to the specifications, Elegance models, the far side mirror should dip on engaging reverse when properly set. The memory is not dependent on electric seats.

My average on long trips (more than 500 km) is 0,48 L/10Km with my 140PD. This is the actual measure; filled it up on arrival!

Forget about th sunroof! Spend your money on genuin leather interior instead. If you are on 17" wheels, try Fulda or Toyo`s instead of Goodyears, the last one`s are noisy and wear out too fast!

Sorry, sorry!

OK! Let's get it sorted!(all the following is referring to wife's Fabia
The yellow warning light started to show two month's ago. the garage claimed the ECU is giving too low voltage to the Lambda. The warning light is not present at all times, but gives me a hell! Anyone got an idea??

Hi,
thanks for all the replies, I have got it booked in for a cambelt and tensioner change next week. I have noticed on a quick start there is another noise which sounds like a belt slipping, any ideas on that one?.
Does anyone use injector cleaner which you put in the fuel tank I believe?
Cheers
Alan
Good luck with your new Fabia! Wife's Fabia. same as yours, is 7 years old now, and has worked fine, most of the time, exept from a few things:
At 37000 km: front right side wheel bearing failed ( sorry, no warranty)
At 44000 km: front left side wheel bearing failed (same history as over, although the manager at the garage tried hard )

On wife`s Fabia, 1,4 16V 2000 model, the engine warning light (yellow) is lighting up now and then. The dealer tell's us the ecu is giving too low voltage to the Lamda and has to be replaced. (The Lambda)Good Lord! 600 Quid! Maybe I should try to disconnect the battery?
-
:eek: and double :eek:
Thanks again.
Lets just hope I don't have to do both of them.
Sorry, but you probably will have to!:( On wife`s Fabia the first one broke after 20k, the other one 3k later!
-
You may as well disconnect the hose in the other end, it is possibly more easy!

I had a quick crawl under the car earlier and I could hardly get any movement on the actuator arm. Granted I did not remove the vacuum pump, but the car has not moved since Friday and therefore I assumed that pipe removal would not have much affect... or should I have pulled the pipe off and then tried? However Westover Skoda assured me that there was full movement in the vanes...... *
Anyway the tray is back on so I can't try that now - I knew I should have checked on here first! But at least my air con pump has not fallen to bits (which is why I was checking!).
Oh and mine had have the new coloured 109 relay....
--
* that was after they had taken the turbo off the car and checked it - but I am not sure they actually did!!!
You have to remove the vacuum-hose to try the movement, otherwise the actuator itself gives too much resistance. Try this the next time you are under the car! ( And dont forget to put the hose back on!)

Hi every1, please bear with me this is my 1st ever posting.
I have a 110 tdi octavia elegance on a 2001 that has a fault like the ones described but it feels as tho its running just as a plain diesel ie, sluggish. But if you pull over switch off and start back up it seems to reset and is off like a shot.
Any ideas cos it seems to be getting a bit more frequent now so want to get it sorted before it goes completely.
Cheers for any help.
See my previous post in this thread. Try to check the actuator on the turbo (and keep your fingers crossed!
-
My summer wheels are 17" but I always have 15" for winter use.
Conti Viking Contact 3 is an exellent choice, the best tyres I ever had on snowy roads ( and icy surfaces to!)
-
If you go for the all leather seats, choose the ivory colour! You have to vipe it down quite often but it sure looks nice! The leather cleaning spray from Auto.Glym works perfect.
Mythos, my favourit greek beer!
-
Shouldnt be a insurance issue, 195/65-15 is standard octy size.
-
Your best choice is Conti Viking Contact 3 195/65 on 15" wheels.
Exellent performance on bare surfaces, in the snow, and even on icy roads!
Not the cheapest you can get, but well worth the money!
-
That happened on my old Octy, turned out to be a sticking actuator on the turbo.
We had to open it and clean it, and then back to normal again. You can get access to it from underneath the car (difficult tho) Pull off the vacuum hose and try the movement. If it doesnt move, its probably sticking vanes in the turbo itself. Hopefully not, a new turbo is exspensive!
-
Put it into neutral and release clutch, and the boot will open!
-
Looks just like my elegance(2005) except for the sat/nav and the colour of the leather( mine is beige)
-
The turbo, or the turbo actuator, is sticking! ( if its a 110 HP)
Try a search on turbo problems and you will find some nice pic`s about how to fix this!
-
It most certainly is the actuator pump on the turbo!
When this is sticking, the variable vanes in the turbo is not working and the ECU measures an overboost
