Still think over, what triple mistake/hit will Hamilton make tomorrow? Today he hits the wall twice in Q3, yesterday he hits the jackman (once), what's next?

Turbo radial clearance
Fabia-format replied to Vojtechovsky's topic in Skoda Fabia Mk II (2007-2014)
I think it's the other way around: I see axial clearance in your video, not radial. Axial - in the direction of the length of the axe Radial - in the direction of the diameter of the axe -
Turbo radial clearance
Fabia-format replied to Vojtechovsky's topic in Skoda Fabia Mk II (2007-2014)
Keep in mind that the turbo can be very hot (few hundred degrees Celsius) and you don't want ik to get stuck, when it is hot. So some clearance is necessary, to keep the turbo running. -
Skoda Fabia Combi should I buy ?
Fabia-format replied to Lando98's topic in Skoda Fabia Mk I (1999-2007)
The most important differance in the hardware is different camshafts for the 75 bhp and the 100 bhp. Both 75 bhp and 100 bhp are there with different motorcodes, due to very minor differents in hardware. A 2006 Fabia with 100 bhp engine could have engine code BBZ (that is the 100 bhp version of the 75 bhp BBY). I sold my 2003 Fabia Combi with BBY engine over three years ago and with 194.000 kilometers driven, this car is still running and it is not exception. I know examples of Fabia's with this engine and between 400.000 and 450.000 km on the counter. Technical parts are identical for the Fabia and Seat Ibiza/Cordoba (6L -generation) en VW Polo from the same generation. For example I had to renew the lambda sonde for my Fabia, and the same lambda in a VW-box was 25% cheaper than the same lambda in a Skoda package. -

Renewing the spark plugs after 4 years is nonsense. The wear happens during sparking, not when your car is parked, so use the 60.000 km as renewal period. I renewed the spark plugs of my Fabia III after 3 years and about 62000 km. Some parts get worse just by aging (as tyres and other rubber parts for example), but not a spark plug. @Hassan_skoda40.000 miles is about 64.400 km, so I think the dealer mixed up miles and kilometers.

Blower only working on setting 4
Fabia-format replied to David62's topic in Skoda Fabia Mk III (2014-2021)
Often the broken resistor is only a result of bearings with wear and tear. If you only replace the resistor, and the blower doesn't rotate smoothly due to a worn out bearing, the resistor will be defect again in a few weeks/months, due to the high current which is needed to rotate the blower. So before you exchange the resistor, first check the blowerbearing (does it make noise or not). -
I still have to update my avatar.

Nice to see your car at this site.

No Renault, as I understand this choice was made to compare with a team which is not suspected for breaking the rules. -

As expected, because this is about Ferrari (International Assistence). Lewis has got firmly punished, (more than necessary in my opinion), I feel sorry for the guy who get the third place in the end, but missed the podium ceremony, like Albon missed his first F-1 podium. -

Fabia-format replied to camelspyyder's topic in Motorsport Discussion
At the start Vettel almost forced Lewis to leave the track (as most recent races Vettel does to concurrents), I'm very happy this time the Ferrari team hit themselves. Superb race from Albon, except the corner where he left to much room (or a little to less) for Lewis. Respect for Lewis apologizing to Albon, even before the podium (and you still can question of this crash was more the fault of Albon or Lewis). -

The disqualification of the Renault team, means that LeClerc doesn't loose any point/position due to the time penalty. So effective no punishment for a Ferrari driver. -

Why do you think it is named 'Ferrari International Assistence'? -

Half a year ago I read here all about a dark future of Red Bull because they choose Honda engines. Only after one race I don't see any comments on the Honda engine?
