Hi Munch, welcome to the forum. Scout has AWD and increased ground clearance.

For the price of a new filter, certainly worth trying.

Hi Gru, welcome to the forum. I think you should get a quote from a few other places! I had my cam and auxiliary belt changed during a service in November 2021 - cost was £436.66 for parts and labour. This was at a large independent. The cambelt kit (including tensioner) was £98.42.

Possibly from the visor flexing when flipped down/up?

Hi Rob, how do you seal those welds - Will that POR 15 sealant do all that?

The energy recuperation system on these micro-hybrids tries to maximise battery charging on overrun or braking, meaning that the alternator will not usually charge the battery to more than 60-75%. One thing to watch - you say you have dash cam, does this remain on when parked? As Viking says, at 6 years, it is possible that battery is starting to fail. A battery condition test after a full recharge should give some indication is this is the case. EFB and AGM batteries require around 14.6 VDC to charge.

Hi, welcome to the forum. The problem is probably due to a failing clutch slave cylinder. Try searching the subject on this forum.

Hi Gaz, I think that is the way the fixed brake pad is supposed to work - correct gap would be critical.

Especially like the Heron sculpture and DLI memorial.

Hi Tickers, I believe that some branches of Timsons can supply and code VAG keys much cheaper than dealers.

A small detail I think I can see in the first picture - in the left-hand corner, just under the outer edge of the reflector - is there a break in the substrate moulding?

Damn those hammer-gun monkeys.

How many miles have you done since filling up?

You can tell when a car salesman is lying - their lips move. PS. the battery life can be extremely variable, depending on quality/make.

Hi Drew, welcome to the forum. Are you saying that the gauge doesn't move at all - even when the tank is nearly empty? I can't speak for the digital dash, but my analogue gauge needle stays locked on full for about 55-60 miles after brim-filling the tank, then starts to read contents as expected.

Hi Flyfisher, welcome to the forum. That's the maxidot screen - you can change the display with the right-hand scroll wheel on the steering wheel. Mine is usually set to show oil temperature.

When we bought my wife's Fabia from a Skoda dealer last year, they failed to spot that it had a 6-speed box in it! - meaning we got the110PS version.

Where did you hang your hat before moving to Portugal?

Posted 'Sad' emoticon because there's no 'screaming, homicidal' one.

Hi Jiggz, welcome to the forum. I assume you have the estate version of the Fabia?

If you still are unsure, post a picture showing the rear axle, preferably from in front of rear wheels.

Hi Jamie, take a look under the car at the rear axle, if it's a plain, beam axle with no centre differential housing (round-ish lump in middle of axle), and no driveshaft coming from the front, it's 2 wheel drive.

I thought the battery SOC function was deleted sometime before MY16 - my 65 plate Octavia does not have it.

Hi welcome to the forum, my money's on a sticking thermostat, I understand that these have a sliding sleeve to allow quick warm-up - not an uncommon fault for these to stick closed.

Front radar sensor?
