  1. Not sure, had a workshop do this because I don't have the Gen2 tools. Gonna check with them. Would it be possible to replace the bearings without the Gen2 tools and not damage the bearing? (Good to know when I contact the workshop)
  2. Hi I've recently replaced front wheel bearings, drove it about 40-50 km and the ABS light came on. Fault code (vcds 00285) pointed at front right ABS sensor. I replaced the sensor, cleared fault codes and drove it for about 50 meters and ABS light came on again. Same fault code. I've checked wiring between abs module and sensor, everything's fine. I also have an issue connecting to ABS module with VCDS, only works sometimes. I have a simpler fault code reader for VAG cars and have no problem connecting with that. Now I'm thinking bad magnetic ring in new bearing or broken ABS unit. Or, could it be something else?

  4. Hi all, I bought myself a nice Fabia, 72000 km on the meter, as good as new. Got a really good price due to PAS not working. I hooked it up with VCDS and there was a lot of strange issues, no response from several controllers. So, I checked wiring to and from PAS and found the main harness rotten down below gearbox mounting/battery. A lot of moist must have gone into the cables. I checked with a friend who's working with Skoda and he told me it's a common issue. A new harness cost ~2000 euro which is around worth of the car. I've been checking around scrap yards but haven't found anything worth buying, I've searched the internet but hasn't found anything. Of course I could solder in new cables but it's a LOT of job. Before doing anything I thought I check up here for ideas. Anyone solved this? Anyone know where I can find a used loom? (I live in Sweden but of course I pay for freight if the price of harness is good.) //Thomas
