Decided to attempt annual service by myself
Each year whilst Fabia SE 1,2 (2014) is due for MOT, I usually ask the mechanic to do a full service whilst they have the car. To save a bit of cash, I think I will try to attempt this myself. I dont have much mechanical aptitude but im willing to learn and give things a try. Ive looked a several YouTube videos which gives me confidence that I should at least try it, but i recognise that things are never as easy as they seem! What parts would you say require servicing each year? I was thinking... Oil and filter change- Obviously, although someone mentioned also replacing the sump plug and washer as well. Is that the case? Air filter- I would assume this needs to be changed annually? Pollen filter- Should I change this? Spark plugs- Should these be replaced annually? Fuel Filter- This looked the most difficult. Should this ideally be replaced? Any other recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks

Unsure wether MKII or MKIII
I believe the 64 related to September 2014??? Why does my v5 show the date first registered as 31/01/2015 in that case?

The VRN is SE64 which I understand to be Glasgow

Unsure wether MKII or MKIII
Ive just seen another poster's data sticker and he has hidden his VIN number on the photo. Out of curiousity, what is the reason for hiding this? Is this information better to be kept private? (just minutes after plastering my own sticker on hereπ€)

Am I right to assume the Engine Code is AMB?

Thanks Wino. Around 45000miles. I've just been reading your 'quote' regarding the vehicle data sticker. I just noticed this whilst trying to find out my original question. I can't make head nor tails of the codes. Thanks UrbanPanzer!!

There is a 5J in there. So you reckon its a MkII? That's very helpful Thanks a lot. Should save the moderators a job moving my posts to the correct forum!

Unsure wether MKII or MKIII
Does anyone have any advice or knowledge wether my Fabia is a MkII or MkIII? I suspect its a Mk2 but i would just like to confirm, as I would like to post any questions on the relevant and correct forum. My car is a Fabia SE 12V Petrol Hatchback 1198CC VRN SE64 LDX. The date of first registration was 31/01/2015. Now, i read online that the Mk2 production was from 2007 to 2014. This is what is giving me some doubt due to the registration year of 2015, although I imagine the production year was possibly 2014 (or earlier?)? Thanks for reading
