Thanks all , no door or boot lights on , car is proper old and worn out these days , never known the alarm to work since I had it so have removed the fuse so can lock the car without waking the neighbours lol

Yes I have done this , the car does not need an alarm and has not worked in 5 years or so of owning it so yes removed the fuse and no more alarms going off 👍

Hi all, had my skoda 5 years now and as far as I’m aware the alarm has never worked , get to a funeral, alarm goes off when I lock the car with key fob or by inserting key , checked all the doors, bonnet etc etc , goes off every time I lock the car 🤦🤦 first time I’ve heard it since owning the car … and now I don’t want to hear it lol and I’ve tried the internal sensor , lights up but does not stop it any suggestions happily received thx

Just been and bought some hella ultra 150s , very good , def light the road better than anything I’ve had before

I put a spare bulb that I originally replaced back in, more of a yellow light , the ones I put in last year said they were 50% brighter than standard but actually with one of those on the driver side and my old bulb on the left, the left side is way better at actually lighting the road than the right… to the point I actually thought my right hand bulb had gone yesterday when driving as it was so rubbish …. They were Halfords own 50% brighter white light bulbs , I’ll get some of these night breakers I think

Hi all, advice please , I have a dipped beam bulb gone ( only 14 months old) recommendations please, I don’t care about ice white or blue etc …. Just a bulb that’s legal and does a damn good job lighting the road up on low beam. The last ones I bought claimed to be way brighter than standard but I don’t think they lit the road as well. Thx

I honestly don’t know why I bother on here!!! If all you have is sarcasm and no help then feel free to know where to go!!! Jesus

I didn’t replace it before if you actually read ... I repair it with a connector! Which lasted 15 months ... don’t need to clear any codes either .... when it’s fixed the light goes out

Hi all , I’ve previously repaired this cable in photo with a connector but it’s broken again and airbag light on again , can this cable be replaced? Easy job? Does anyone know the product name and number for airbag cable within the rubber of drivers side door hinge for 2005 skoda Octavia ... I believe there might be two different types for early and later mk2s many thx

Hi all, Question on fuel light, recently travelling 100 miles a day for work, left work yesterday and computer said I had 75miles to empty so thought I’d fill when home, well..... got 20 miles down the road and it said 0 miles left and gauge went to the R so felt I had to find fuel quickly What mileage are people getting from when fuel light comes on as my gauge seems to drop like a lead ballon as soon as fuel light comes on Also what are people getting to a full tank ... mine is around £70 to fill from empty and best I’ve managed is 560 miles which is worse than the old work van , yet the car often shows 65mpg to and from work

Ahhhhh I see ..... many many thx for that .... I was clicking the links on a previous post but the pdf would load to see how they fitted ..... very simple ..... thankyou again

But there is nothing at all on my roof for fitting anything to, non of the plastic strips that hide where roof rails are fitted ??? Just a bare metal roof ... are rails generally screwed into the roof? Many thx

Hi all .... I’m needing to use my car for work and carry a ladder.... basically I need a roof rack but....... I have no roof rails or anywhere to fit one...... advice I need A ..... can a roof rack be fitted B ......if so what do people recommend? Many thx

Well I posted as my airbag light has come on, plugged in a while ago and it said crash sensor drivers side , I have only just looked and found the broken wire but upon contacting my mechanic who initially diagnosed crash sensor .... he now says he does not think there is anything in the door to do with airbags but will happily solder the wire and clear the code and see what happens ....basically I wanted to see if people on here had experience of the yellow connector and broken wire

Hi all ... could someone please tell me what the yellow plug is?? It’s situated in the rubber of the drivers side door shut and a yellow wire is broken..... many thx
