Ahh okay, i wonder if the previous owner upgraded. Aren't these brake calipers commonly used on the Seat Ibiza FR

Hello, Can anyone help me locate the OEM number or point me in the right direction to find a replacement caliper for my O/S/F fabia vrs (2005) Part is labelled as Lucas E285 - 32327366/4

Yeah i've seen you can replace the pulley but i just got a 3 month old alternator from a 1.9 TDI estate MK1, turns out there the same part so i picked that up for £35, replacement belt for £21 and fitting was just over 50. so £110 all in to get a new alternator, belt and labour which im happy about!

Yes I mean the aux belt 😳 the point is my alternator is *******ed lol

Hi mate thanks for the reply! ive read the thread on the previous problems with alternator related issue however my pulley has detached from my alternator so it defo needs replacing 😞 - looks like the TDI has the same alternator so I managed to pick up one that’s barely been used online for £30! Instead of forking out for a new one! Looks like my timing belt needs replacing as it’s been chewed up even though I only replaced it 6 months ago

Hi guys, do you know if the 1.9TDI fabia Mk1 will have the same alternator for the same year fabia VRS (2005), I know the BHP is different but was curious if a TDI alternator would fit straight into my VRS- thanks in advance! :-)
