Hi thanks for reply. The car is a Skoda Fabia classic 8v 1397cc petrol. The first time it happened someone with a small handheld diagnosic machine said it showing temp switch but second guy with bigger machne said it is the key needing recoded as not matching with immobiliser. He recoded it twice now first time it worked for 2 weeks second time nothing changed. Seemed to start when cold but then nothing once ran. Hope this helps you to help me.

The car suddenly stopped working. It would turn over but not kick in. Diagnostic showed it was key fob which got recoded, then worked for two weeks then started again. It seemed to start when it was cold but after a short run it wont start for a couple of hours. I have changed the temp sensor (something I saw on here) and it went brill for a day but went to go to work today and the same thing happened. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I also tried cleaning throttle butterfly thing.

Hi, I am new to this so please be patient lol. I have bought a skoda fabia 2002 which was running great for a few weeks but now gives me nothing but trouble. Hope some of you peeps can give me a bit of advice. Thanks

Hello, I am new to this site and sorry for jumping in but I am also looking for advice. When I got my we fabia classic 2002 my son said the temp sensor needed replaced which never got done (thanks son ). The car temp guage never moved but car drove fine. Three weeks ago after being out in the car I stopped at a shop and car wouldnt start when I got back in car. Diagnostic showed fob needed recoded which I got done and drove great for two weeks now it starts when cold and after driving short distance stop car it doesnt start till cold again. After reading google my mind is frazzled. Can it be this sensor sending wrong info to engine saying it is overheating. Thanks and again sorry for jumping in.
