Good morning Mark, welcome to the forum. What are the niggly faults you have?

SWMBOs SEL Fabia has similar window setup - AFAIK, there's no convenience opening option.

Assuming the TPMS had not been reset after the overinflated tyre was fitted, that is correct operation.

If not too distant from your home, I'd suggest taking it back to the garage and politely request them to finish the job you paid for. Not sure if service interval reset is same for Mk3 Fabia - but you could try the following - With ignition off, press and hold odo reset button/s (two fingers on Mk3). Switch ignition on but don't start engine while still holding odo reset buttons. NB - edit. Continue to hold Odo reset buttons until 'Reset oil service' message appears, release button then press again to reset. The same process applies to resetting the Inspection interval. Switch ignition off.

Assuming you mean the indirect TPMS system, operating via signals from the ABS sensors, I believe it does - provided there is a mismatch in wheel rotation speeds from when the system is set, the system should flag the change. Typically, my Octavia flags when the difference exceeds approx. 0.4 bar.

Before you ask - the trailer weights should also be on a plate attached to the trailer.

Unless I'm misunderstanding your terminology, it's a little difficult to see how is is possible to physically 'stall' a vehicle that's already in motion (at probably more than 10MPH) - the kinetic energy alone should keep the engine running in gear.

Does it exhibit the same behaviour when engine revved in neutral, then allowed to slow down?

... But what is the vehicles history? - was the vehicle running, then just shut down? - or was it bought as non-runner, as a project? or was it involved in an accident?

Is the cause of the original failure known - why were modules replaced?

Very likely to be thought a Q car.

According to a number of online resources - and also on this forum - the max. towing weight of a 2018 2.0TDI is 1600kg (braked) - providing your trailer tare weight is no more than 900kg, you will be safe and legal.

I'd think the first step is to plug a reader into the OBD port.

Not sure, but would it not be the case that the ECU shuts everything down if the immobiliser was activated?

Hello, welcome to the forum. Engine start then immediate stop sounds like the immobiliser cutting off.

As mentioned a couple of replies ago, check the permissible towing weight on the B pillar plate.

Hello, welcome to the forum. It sounds as if you enjoy your driving when you're not commuting - provided you're not too heavy with the right foot, and the insurance premium isn't prohibitive, I'd suggest a manual Vrs.

It will help if you supply engine size and code - all we know at the moment is diesel and manual gears. Does the engine idle smoothly and at correct speed in neutral?

What engine is fitted to the 2015 Citigo?

It is always advisable to carry out an adaptation when the battery is replaced in these micro-hybrids - if for no other reason than to clear any recorded battery faults that may be limiting charge rate from alternator. Adaptation is definitely required if new battery is different chemistry type (AGM/EFB) or is a different capacity (AHrs)

The EML lighting up could very likely be something other than a failing battery, any DTC recorded needs to be read to determine what might be triggering it. Also suggest getting the battery tested.

EML lit will definitely inhibit auto stop-start. You will need to read any DTCs recorded. The fault description for stop-start inhibition when battery SOC is low is usually 'Load too high'

Do you suspect timing chain failure?

I'm not sure that's a 'pixel error' - I believe it's the display indicating the possible source of the error, similar to the wheels being highlighted (except in red) when the TPMS flags pressure loss.

Depending on the width of the base of the triangle, I'd guess it's a guide, like the normal reversing tramlines - keep the trailer within the triangle while reversing.
