  1. Evening all, MOT today and got the following minor defect - suspension arm ball joint dust cover severely deteriorated. Am I right in thinking this is a new ball joint? Quick search through the forum suggest this is an easy DIY job with 4 bolts in total. Do I need tracking afterwards? Thanks
  2. FWIW I have replaced my aerial with one of these - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/221590883405, and it seems to have solved the issue but have only driven small rounds so far so true test over time. When people say yank hard, they’re not lying. Yank it hard and if it comes with an adapter like mine, make sure to lift the aerial base thread back into the ‘upright’ position before screwing in. You may think it’s too small a thread but it does go!
  3. Thanks Breezy, just saved me an exhaust! Is it worth trying to clean up corrosion and treat / seal with putty or simply just ignore altogether.
  4. Hope you had a merry Christmas guys! Was thinking, if I do need a full exhaust replacement would a VRS exhaust fit on?
  5. Initially the oil leak, when cleaning this part it always come up oiley again so suspect the o ring has gone but every now and again the EML light comes on and the error code was camshaft position related.. can’t recall code mind. On a separate point, my recent MOT advises “ slight leak at front flex pipe”, slight leak at 2nd exhaust joint” and “rear silencer corroded”. Found various posts for the front flex repair but this sounds like a whole new exhaust might be somewhat easier? Thanks
  6. Hi all, I am trying to figure out what this part is, I found a parts drawing which states it’s as impulse sender and when searching impulse sender it comes up camshaft sensor. Part number is 11G0368. Car is 60hp 1.2 htp. Also assume this is source of oil leak. Thanks
  7. Hi Doily, Yes there is 12V at the coax pin, assume I need to check 12V at aerial side of pin too and for this I have to remove aerial again?
  8. To update you all and for others in future. After a painful recovery and ten days later the car is finally fixed and back with me. The issue was the steering control module, part number S3Q0905861B £500 for the total bill including parts and 2.5 hours labour. Only downside is I now have a nasty scratch on the airbag from either Skoda or Recovery truck… Thanks for all the help!
  9. Hi all, I have a 09 baseline mk2 Fabia with the common poor radio signal (dance) having search through the forums here the most common issue I’ve read is water in the base of the aerial. I’ve taken the headlining down and managed to completely remove the aerial from the car but the base (where it attaches to the car) is bone dry. The aerial is the long type which the rubber does seem to have become dry and brittle but wouldn’t have thought this would affect signal. What else should I be looking at next? Thanks
  10. Thanks Aperture! Sounds like a trip to the local dealers then, any idea what damage I’m looking at?
  11. Thanks Aperture, for what it’s worth the wheel turns completely, how would I go about checking or removing the steering lock pin?
  12. Hi all, wonder if your knowledgable folk can help! Went to start car this morning at the screen flashed up with “ Move Steering Wheel” and wouldn’t start. Tried turning the steering wheel in both directions, tried adjusting the rake of the steering, locking unlocking etc but nothing. Rang the nearest skoda dealer to be told to ring AA/RAC. Not currently got at home cover so looking to this, but any ideas where to start or if anyone has come across this before? The car drove absolutely fine yesterday. It’s a 2016 2.0 TDI superb. Thanks in advance.
  13. Hi all, sorry to resurrect an old thread but I discovered some more when removing the boot liner. Certainly looks after market but anyone got any guesses? There is a fitted inline fuse also?
