That's a usable link! Really good tip My whife told me we still had an insurance policy for this car! Wonderful news, I thought we had ended that due to the cars age. Now I only have to pay less than £300 and get the job done by a profesional Thanks anyway and that plastic welding tip will be used for an other project

It's worth the cost of repairing, no doubt. It's a 2007 and in good condition. But as always, keeping cost down is good. She is in tears, I'm trying to tell her it's only a car and these things happen, but she feels like an idiot.

Well, the scrapyards i Sweden shurly knows how to earn money. And on top of that, there aren't that many scrapyards around. There will be either a 500 km drive to get all parts or transport costs of twice the material cost. The bonnet is the worst part to get transported, but even the bumper is a bit tricky, in right coulour there is only one in Sweden, and it's a 550 km drive one way... Worst case scenario, I'll just put a sticker on the crack.

Well one more thing, the colour code for my car, I guess it's 9202 from what I can read out of the service manual. Am I right? The wing part I can get hold of is in colour 9102 so probably I'll have to do some painting and that will not be a sucsess I think

Excuse my bad English... I had my 16-year old daughter for some practice driving. As she turned 16 today it was a premiere tour. She did splendid, but when she tried to park the car... Well I had been on the edge all the time but now probably feeling a bit on the safe side. So when she forgot to hit the brakes, I was a bit slow with the handbrake and well... Bumper, Headlight, Wing and Bonnet was dented by a light post. Even the windshield washer fluid container (is it called that in English?) got rupted or tored. The wing replacing seems to be, well not easy but doable. http://www.mediafire.com/file/dwyz09tvplj/elemente_caroserie.pdf section 50-2 seems to cover it all, exept from how to make the glue or what ever is fixing it to the body. And what to use to "glue" it back when replaced. A used one is mine for roughly £80 The Bumper... I guess I won't teplace it, just glue back that little chip and maby cover it with some paint. The headlight... there were some plastic mounting parts that got damaged. Both on the headlight it self and in the housing. I guess I'll have to replace the lot, but I cant find a guide. A used one is mine for roughly £80 The Bonnet... Some pliers and paint and it'll have to do, getting a new one isn't an option. The washer fluid container... I've found no instructions what so ever on the net. But a used one is mine for roughly £15 If you have any good tips or links it would be super if you could share them with me. Thanks in advance

Thank you! Perfect help!

I need to know what version of fabia I'm drivning, is it a 6y or a 5j? The 6y was produced untill 2007 and 5j started its line 2007. My car is manufactured 2007-12... I've got some tech specs Motor 47 kWh 1198 cm3

My mirrors has gotten so tainted they no longer work. My dealer wants 120€ for a matching pair. Thats a bit much in my opinion. Is there a way to know what the original part number for theese mirrors are? My car is a left hand stearing car since I live in Sweden.

I checked the function this morning. It wasn't that cold today, 18,5ºC The flap was in it's "down" position letting warmest air in to the engine. I heated it up and when my IR-thermometer said 35º the flap moved. I cooled it down by using liquid air (I guess it's propane, it's used to clean out dusty computers) when holding such a can up side down it spits out a liquid gas, cold enough to move the flap again. I guess it works swell =)

Very nice picture! Looks like exactly the same solution. And very smart done too. No electronics or sensors, just mechanics =)

I'll let the car sit over night so it's well below 15º to see if the flap is movable (if I understood you right about whats supposed to happen in different temperatures). Mornings here in Sweden are quite cold...

Yes! That was it =) I guess this part is supposed to direct an air flow over some sort of thermostatic device that regulates the amount of cold air let in to the engine. The mystery part was broken though, a clip for holding it in place was damaged, but some glue did the trick. Thanks a lot to you all! =)

=) That's my favourite store! The mystery part was inside the red marking inside that tube.

There are some numbers on the bottom of air filter compartment 03E129607 (N) FZ3 Spain 446 092 85 (912) >PP-GF30< >PA6-GF30< Here are a few more pic's of the mysterious part
