skoda fabia vrs se 2007 fuel problem
matty28 replied to matty28's topic in Skoda Fabia Mk I (1999-2007)
Little up date I've replaced the timing belt and set the timing to 0 its was so fare out i could not lock the crank off at tdc . I know get 40mpg local driving instead of the 59+ it was telling me and I've done 150 miles and the niddle as not moved off full yet. It's so much better on tick over and first start thanks for all the help -

I will keep eye on this mate but I've been checking oil and it seems fine . All the parts I've changed I've had as spares of a good car I broke . E.g. service was 70 pound done my self . I don't know the car as it's New I'm thinking could a small boost leak cause fueling problems or let's say it's had a new turbo and the actuator as not be set correctly could these be possibles for it being heavy on fuel and can the actuator be tested on vdcs ? I've noticed it's heavier when I put my foot down -

It's not a rough runner mate and engine sounds sweet as a nut. On tick over u don't even know it's running she is quite. when first started it's sometime it's like the revs drop to much if that makes sense but they don't I've put it down to over fueling I've ordered vag com .New ecu because I can't tell if it's mapped or not soon as vag com comes il check timing im on 329 and the light is on its drinking the stuff just cant work out why -

I have ordered new ecu just in case when first started it does run lumpy as if it is having to much fuel maybe -

hi everyone I seem to be having a problem with my fuel I'm doing around 350 to a full tank to 0 miles and I can watch the fuel gauge drop when I'm driving . she runs sweet as a nut no black smoke at all and totally standard, and I'm doing 60% local driving and 40% motor ways . I have had 5 fabia vrs and none of them have been as bad as this one . I have replaced maf, cleaned egr witch was ok! and done a full service replaced air filter and fuel filter it does not seem to over fuel as there is no black smoke when I put my foot down , I drive tidy and would not like to know how many miles id get if I had a lead foot ! I drove 100 miles to Newport and back to Swansea and used from the last mark before full to half a tank doing 75 mph . this cant be right! I could watch the gauge going down its was showing I was getting 60mpg plus I have no leaks that I can see or smell ,cant work out why any help on what to look for or what it could be thanks

I will check the weekend at the door wiring if that's ok I will replace the motor and hopefully that will sort it ,does anyone know what other cars share the same window motors? I have one with 2 plugs I have a few 3 plugged ones and 4 plugs ,but I cant seems to find the one I need must be because its a later model*
-
so it could be a broken wire isit ? failing me finding a broken wire could it be the window motor as when it works that works perfect
-
No not until I've reset the fuss then I can reset full closure again . I've changed the window switch with a working one and still the same
