Last time it turned out to be a exhaust leak. This time, who knows. It confused the AA man's scanner but we think it's a dodgy injector. Still mad you can rev the engine without the revs rising and the rev counter doesn't actually count revs.

Hi all, Bit of a weird one and a paniced wife. Car is a Fabia '16 1.4 tdi. Engine warning light has come on and when you rev the engine the rev counter goes up/down as normal but the engine remains idling (slighly rough). Any ideas? Car can't be driven.

Sadly the wife was driving when it came on, so no idea on other things that may have occured at the time.

Hi, just a quick question. Engine warning light came on out 1.4tdi Fabia (mkIII). Then at next start it came on again, then at next start it no longer comes on. Any ideas? Or is this just a waiting game to see if it come back?

Three cat traps! Oi local feral cats, stop shagging!

Hi all, It's really cold today (car says -5) and the boot opened but not will not latch when closed . A quick "twiddle with a screwdriver" shows the mech is working but it appears something is stuck 'open' or similar. Any ideas on simple things to try? Thanks

To answer the question : 32gb is fine.

The 1.4 tdi takes less oil than the 1.6/2.0 engines so the servicing intervals on long life is shorter. ~12-14k. Noting that the car may need inspection services as well as just oil changes. My 4 year old fabia S 75 TDI gets serviced 12 months in sync with the MOT but I ask for a long life service. This means that it won't torment you if you do 11k one year or 8k the next. If however you are doing more than 12-14k a year you cant sync up with your MOT.

One of my DRL bulbs has just popped so I might as well go for a bit of an upgrade Also.... Do you need the hands of a 6 year old to install them? Fabia 2016 S 1.4 TDI (75) estate. Thanks

My wife has too many feeling for her car... Sadly it's all hate.
