How difficult is to replace clutch by myself? need special tools?

nobody?

Nobody?

Yes, i want to do that, that in fact i guess it is the same system that it is preventing my car to lock, i mean, when my car is on, the driver´s door is never locked

Does the MK1 has autolock? i never knew

Several months ago, almost a year ago i got that light on, but i just re tighten the wires in the fuse box and it was gone. Two months ago I was about to start the car and it did not work. i had to use a jump starter, after it, it came alive,all good, but then there was that glow plug coil light flashing. The light went of 3 days ago, ad i was happy... Three days without that light on, cool! But today the car didn´t wanted to start and i had to jump start it again and did not work , i notice that when trying to crank there was no drop in the voltage, so i knew the electricity was not even reaching the starter, then i give a look to it and i found one of the wires of the starter loose, i cleaned it and put it back and it started like a charm, but the glow plug light came back

It was when i left my friend inside the car and i told him lock the car while i am out, when i came back i pull the handle and open the door, i waked him why hi didn't lock the car, he told me he did... months later, the same scenario, then i decide to investigate, and i discovered that the driver´s door never locks when the car is running. I always thought I felt safe when driving through a dangerous neighborhood (most of the urban area of my country) and locking the doors, but now I find out that anyone could open the door and mug me or rob me. Sometimes I passed through places so dangerous that I pressed the lock button several times, knowingly making sure the doors were locked. When the car is off, the locks works perfectly but if the engine is running, al the doors locks but the driver´s won´t i know some car even when the lock is on, doors can be opened form inside (driver and passenger) BUT from the INSIDE. That works in the Fabia too, but also from the outside in the driver´s door!

Hi! how much did that lift impact the fuel economy, was it noticeable significant? when 30mm or when 60mm?

Hi! I did it regardless the temperature of the engine.

Hi! i just bleed the clutch, and did some repairs in the trunk, nothing related to cooling system, and suddently the car takes lot of kms to get its optimal temperature, it is like if it was without thermostat, or maybe it is stuck open?

Hi, when i replace the engine, the old one was burning oil, i decide to replace the clutch, the old one was working PERFECTLY FINE, but since you do not open engine everyday and it is a cheap part, i decide it to give it a new clutch... it is only been 45k kilometers since that, and first gear and reverse enter scratching the gears, it is more noticeable when i have been driving several kilometers in the city. in 45k kilometers i have work the brakes 3 or 4 time, so i thought maybe air in the line could be the culprit, and not it was not, i did a bleeding in the clutch yesterday, lot of air came out and dirty fluid, but the clutch is almost the same, very very little improvement. I remember my Peugeot 205 that used to have an opening to visually inspect the clutch disk, is there any way to verify the clutch integrity? if this were a clable driven clutch pedal, that would be an easy fix.

After the good part of the road.... then we started to climb at about 530pm and reach the camp site at about 1am,

This was pretty much half of the way We had to use the ramps for that kind of terrain (worse than the picture above) about 14 or 15 times. in that picture, it was 7600ft MSL and 12:30am, i was really needing a turbo, but i dont think that i could have do it with hotter temps, like 1 or 2pm, there just would not be enough oxigen for the necesary power

That 😉
