  1. Aren’t all MK3 Škodas Start-Stop anyway? In fact, all 2014 and later cars in general? My Fabia surely is… that’s why it’s surprising they fit an EFB battery in the first placs?
  2. Recently my MKIII's battery finally gave up the ghost after almost 8 years, so I'm in the market for a new one. The current one is by MOLL and it says EFB on it. In the users' manual, however, I noticed it says "AGM - battery type" in the Abbreviations section. I assume that's just a general reference and likely not for this car in particular? Or can MKIII in fact also use AGM-type batteries?
  3. Yes, I also hear this sound from my AC sometimes... it's not always present though, so I'm hesitant of taking it in for checkup because I'm sure the mechanics "won't hear anything", or will shrug it off as normal sounds... is it normal, though?
  4. Hey guys, sorry to resurrect this thread. I have a MKIII Fabia (2015) and up until now I've used the stock alloy wheels both for winter and summer tires (215/45 R16.) However, I'm currently considering getting a different set of wheels for my winter tires, that is 185/60 R15, while keeping my summer tires on 215/45 R16 wheels. Please can someone reconfirm if I'd need to buy separate TPMS sensors for the winter wheels or not? (eg.: https://www.buycarparts.co.uk/skoda/fabia-nj3/108658/10934/tyre-pressure-control-system) I'd definitely like to have the system working properly in notifying me if one of the tire's pressure gets lower than the other and whatnot.
  5. So they replaced the fuel flap lock system under warranty and everything is fine again.
  6. Ok, on second thoughts I’m quite sure this shouldn’t be right.. it should definitely lock with the rest of the car... Can somebody please reconfirm?
  7. Up until now I had been convinced that the fuel flap locks whenever you lock the car. However, today I realized that isn’t the case. It seems that regardless of whether the car is locked or unlocked you can always open the flap. Is this normal behavior or did the lock system in my Fabia fuel flap stop working?
  8. Perhaps not exactly the same issue as OP is having, but ever since I updated to iOS 11, Bolero syncs my contacts on each and every ride in my Fabia. Most of the time it syncs fine, but sometimes it says that the sync has failed. I tried unpairing and pairing my iPhone again but no help. It's getting a bit annoying already...
  9. Agreed! Though I'm quite "lucky", I suppose, as my driving only includes cca. 20% in town, the rest is out of town, which definitely helps mpg quite a bit.
  10. My current long-term average (for the past 4-5k km?) is 5.1 L/100 km, which would be between 55-56 mpg if I'm not mistaken.
  11. For those interested, I managed to get it to work thanks to @Paul90!! I wrote step-by-step instructions below, but to summarize: the path of your mp3s needs to be linked to folders/files on your SD card, and for Mac users like myself the .m3u file should be saved in Windows (CRLF) format, otherwise Bolero (and similar systems) won't recognize it due to some formatting differences between Windows and Mac. 1. Create your playlist in iTunes 2. Click on the playlist, go to iTunes "File" and then "Library" and select export in M3U format 3. Open the .m3u file with TextWrangler (free app) 4. You will see something like this (this is just an example of 1 song!): #EXTM3U #EXTINF:273,Shape of You - Ed Sheeran.m4a /Users/username/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Ed Sheeran/Divide/04 Shape of You.m4a 5. Remove everything to the left of the slash "/" before the artist's name, so you end up with something like this: #EXTM3U #EXTINF:273,Shape of You - Ed Sheeran.m4a /Ed Sheeran/Divide/04 Shape of You.m4a 6. Do this for the rest of the songs in the .m3u file (best to use the "find and replace" option within the app) 7. Once done go to "File" in TextWrangler and then "Save As" 8. Under "Line breaks" choose Windows (CRLF) - this will ensure that the file can get read properly in Bolero! 9. Copy all your music to SD card and make sure the paths match those on the playlist! E.g. in the above example the folder structure is as follows: Artist/Album/Song, so the "Ed Sheeran" folder should be visible right away when you plug SD card into your computer, as it will be on the "root" of the SD card. Below I'm quoting some additional explanation from @Paul90:

  14. Hi, were you able to find a solution? I'm also trying to get my playlist to work... (In Bolero, however).
