The noise just sounds the same and the belt was changed last year no slipping. Exciter wire is that the big thick black wire?

I will check this and have a look thanks What's the way to check this is good or bad? Thanks

This week my battery light started to come on and off. I have a brand new battery holding a good charge. The alternator charging at 14.5v which is all good. Just seeing what other things it could be? Skoda fabia 1.4 tdi. Thanks.

I've also noticed a bit more power now so that very small leak makes a big difference.

I've fitted the new fuel pipe and the leak stopped now good news.

Does anybody know what this fuel inlet does? Does it have any seals or gaskets? I'm just asking this as I will be changing the rubber pipe but also in case it could be this part as well.

Thanks I've order some pipe fuel hose pipe on the way.

Hello I've noticed a small black fuel hose pipe getting damp. I've cleaned it up and it seems to be leaking from that small pipe. These pipes can you still buy them? The fuel inlet part do these leak at all much? Skoda fabia 1.4 tdi Thanks

I'm looking for a front driver side seat belt due to it fraying and the material starting to come of on the edges. There don't seem to be many driver side front seat belts around for sale skoda fabia mk1. I had the same problem on my peugeot but managed to change that one.

Check the tyre pressures, , suspension springs are not broken, tracking. I always put new tyres on the front if the tyres are low and going for tracking. You know then the tracking done and the new tyres any wear you know right away.

1 of my front plates started making a noise the next thing few of down the road. I went to have a look and it got flatten over a few times. The both sides are missing now but makes very little difference.

What a amazing difference in starting the car now in cold and warm weather. The battery was worth it in the end plenty of power.

So can the connection be removed or cleaned? I'm only repairing it my self as the cost of paying to repair not worth it and the job easy to do.

I'm needing to know there 3 wires coming out just trying to work out what the 3 connect to - + and the 3rd. 3 Wires Large size There brown? Large Black and white? Smaller purple and white? Thanks

I fixed the window problem I must of forgot to post back on here. I checked the loom in front of the gearbox there was 1 or 2 wires broken frayed against the gearbox. So I cut the wires and re joined with a wiring block then insulation tape over it. I then had spare pipe insulation for copper pipes on a house. I cut a small piece of this and put it around the connection to keep it cover more and to stop it rubbing against the gear box. This fixed the window problems and it also solved the charging problem now charges at 14.5v it used to jump about before. It' been 5 months and the charging and windows work fine now. Thanks for the help all down to these small wires in front of the gearbox.
