OK, so this has nothing to do with the car specs, it has something to do with the car registration in the UK! Thanks guys, much obliged.

I keep hearing you guys mentioning that "i have a 55 plate" and "57 plate" and so on. All i want to know is how to know the plate number of my mk1 fabia, it's a saloon 2004 1.2 12v 47kw. Thanks

Where did you get them? From ebay?

I Yes it's a saloon and it's 1.2 12v petrol. No turbo !!

I have these under control, anything else? I also have it completely checked, and oil and filters changed every 10000 km. the spark plugs are changed every 25 - 30 k. I guess i am doing it right!

Do you think?? Is it that long living? Actually i have no problems with the mechanics of the car, it runs perfectly. The problems are with the electronics, i changed the driver's door lock once and it's broken again, the window motor is broken on both driver and passenger's side. I lost the outside temperature sensor, the roof antenna is a mess, and my windsheild is cracked.But it runs very good, and accelerate fine!

you should take this for a profession

Still want to know?? It's the lever to open the A/C onto the small compartment so you can keep a can of soda cold, just like the "rotating black hole in the glove compartment". Although i read the manual, it took me some time to figure this out! After i changed the internal evaporator of the A/C, which needed the whole of the dashboard to be taken off and reattached again, it stopped getting any cold air out

My 2004 mk1 saloon 1.2HTP had a broken down alternator a couple of months ago. I insisted on driving it though, and after a while it started to do strange things. The rev and speed dials started to act bizzare at first then stopped working completely. My horn used to sound a lot longer than I press it. All the lights in the instrument cluster lit up, and the steering wheel became very heavy. After that it started to lose power every now and then till it came to a complete stop, and all that happened on my way to the mechanik. I had to call him and he came and towed the car to his workshop. I drained the battery as i was trying to reach the workshop. When a new alternator went in, the car started to work normally, although i had to change the battery a couple of days later.

Thanks, i got the idea, my car sucks. Yet i still love it!

thanks

Yes mine too is like this, it only loosen so you can fold it down into a carwash or if you need to cover the car (instead of removing it completely) it never screws off . Kind of security measure too, so it won't be stolen!

Is it easy to retrofit ABS module on my 2004 Fabia saloon? I mean if i got the module is it easy to install and make the connections, or i will be pushed to change a lot of things in the car?

My 2004 Fabia saloon just turned 200,000 km, is there anything special now about the mentainance I should do in this special occasion?

Thanks all for the info. Actually my A/C works fine, inspite of not knowing what the outside temperature is!

The outside temp. sensor started a few days ago to show --.-c, and i noticed a plug hanging below the car. I need to know where the sensor is to reconnect it. Does this affect any function in the car, like the A/C?
