Issue with engine turning off mid-drive
Welcome to the forum. That engine stalling sounds a lot like a clutch 'bite point' issue - have you noticed there to be a significant difference from the original clutch in the point where the engine revs starts to drop when you start to lift the clutch pedal? Have you tried 'slipping' the clutch a little more when moving off from standstill?

Blower fan not working
Welcome to the forum. Has the battery been fully load tested? This should be the first thing to do. A failing battery is definitely a prime suspect for ACC, Park Pilot and SS errors - as are failing ABS wheel sensors. U112300 is a generic code for communication errors between control modules. If the battery definitely tests as fully functional, faulty wiring, connectors or failing sensors can cause this DTC. Have there been any modifications made, I.e. changed steering wheel, etc?

Reverse camera
Assuming the vehicle had this supposed 'aftermarket' camera fitted before it was sold to you, the seller is responsible for any warranty faults - they can't just refuse any responsibility because they claim 'aftermarket' unless it was specifically excluded. The UK Sale of Goods Act applies - even though the seller may say 'now out of time' the fact you reported the fault to them while still under warranty should take precedence.

Lego pushed between window and door
How about trying a straight length of stiff wire, bent into a right-angle at the end, to hook under the piece and lift it enough to pull it out?

Battery Problem?
Very odd that the SS is still working, but strongly suggest a proper load test on the battery.

Does rear wiper come under MOT?
@Alasdair1 How did the MOT go, did the tester give an advisory on the rear wiper?

Syphon fuel or not?
I'd suggest just topping-up the tank with premium diesel and possibly consider an early change of the fuel filter.

Fabia MK2 front door harness AGAIN...
The problem with wiring is that copper will work-harden after a lot of flexing - this causes the conductor to lose flexibility and fracture inside the insulation. The answer is to use many more, thinner strands to make up the conductor.

problem with ignition on a hot day!
What is the description of that part you showed?

Battery running down over a few days despite replacement
To clarify - was the connector you removed for testing the one on the Shark Fin (GPS) or the one for the DAB antenna on the side window?

Not a great idea to consider skipping due services.

A "warm" hello to everyone, Alloy Wheel help please - yep all 4 of them.
Your question about the TPMS depends on whether you have indirect or direct system. More likely you have indirect system - which uses data from the ABS wheel sensors and is not affected by changes in wheel sizes, provided all wheels are same size. Does your TPMS display actual tyre pressures - or simply flag pressure loss?

New windscreen - intermittent wipers
Very possibly affected by screen replacement if the rain sensor behind the RV mirror was damaged.

Wipers won't work on any setting if the hood is open.
