Tyre advice needed ASAP
Some people might want to use some vulcanising glue in the split. It need to be glue that stays flexible when it dries - tyre puncture repair glue. It helps if the wound is compressed when the glue is drying. Thanks AG Falco

Tyre advice needed ASAP
Tyres getting bigger again then. Was that a standard or optional size wheel/tyre? How deep does it go? Any bulges? Thanks AG Falco

Tyre advice needed ASAP
Impact damage normally. The Conti has an extra rubber kerb rim protector bump strip. ( which might have done its job ) Can you see any white cords showing inside the split? I would guess that this is a tyre from the OP's Superb and not the Fabia. Thanks AG Falco

Someone at work was complaining at the 25 MPG he was getting. I said I would struggle get twice that with my car and he didn't believe me. I then said I could do better. He bet me I couldn't. And so it went on, Challenge set. π Thanks AG Falco

Battery Side Dipped Headlight Recess Bulb Change
Yes it fits very tight, you do need to pull hard. I have lost one, no idea how it went missing, possibly from water thrown up when driving. But the really hard bit is next when you try to remove the bulb from it's holder. π§ You can do it without removing the cover but it is easier as you can see more. There are some helpful posts on this subject in this Fabia III forum. Thanks AG Falco

I have the heated seat switches in my car. Do you want me to try and find the part numbers for you? Then you could ask Skoda Australia. You could quote my chassis number to them to find the part numbers? Thanks AG Falco
