Last one would definitely be an Air B'n'B in a more literal sense.

Always called them 'stuckies' in my part of the world, if that helps.

Had to zoom in a lot of the phone to capture this wee critter. It looked better on my phone than it does on my laptop.

Sticking accelerator on '56 Fabia vRS
Happy to have been of help. You're definitely best playing it safe and taking it out to be sure of the number. I just put that number into eBay then sorted the page by price in ascending order and bought the cheapest one. It's still working (touch wood).

For Sale: Small Form Factor Computer (Intel Core i5-2500, 8GB RAM, 500GB HDD etc)
I had originally built this computer system for another person on another forum. However, they pulled out of the deal for financial reasons so now I'm offering it to yous since it's taking up far too much space and my Mum's said "get it f***ing shifted." So yeah, here we are. It's a fairly simple system overall. Ideal for basic usage etc, or even as a PC for watching films when connected to a television set. Specifications are as such: Intel Core i5-2500 8GB DDR3-1600 RAM (clocked in at 1333) 500GB 3.5" HDD ATI Radeon HD6540* with HDMI Windows 10 Pro (activated) Just to sweeten the deal, I'll include a USB (or PS/2, you decide) keyboard to go with it at an extra £2.50! # ^ The cables were tidied up a bit. I'm looking for something in the region of £80 (cheaper than eBay, apparently) for this but I'll happily negotiate on that one. It does not come with cables for connecting to your computer as I don't have any spare. *ATI Radeon card hasn't arrived, but will be fitted upon arrival. Please note that postage will be £10.00 flat rate sent with RM 1st Class Signed For. Alternatively, you can collect locally from KA6 or KA5. I'll deliver within 45/50 miles (excluding Glasgow City Centre) of KA6 in exchange for petrol money too. Ta.

I do the same as Lee as I don't have enough faith in the sills.

Hello, n
Having a car that's fun over fast is always very important. Glad you're enjoying the Citigo.

clutch squealing
This summarises the issues perfectly. You have to weigh up whether it's cheaper to just replace the car if it equates to less than what it would cost for the myriad of problems it has thrown at you recently to be fixed properly. A fairly grim view there, yeah, but truthful unfortunately.

DieselMonte's 2012 Monte Carlo Project.
Good work here, very impressed at the level of effort going into this. All you need is a rear disc conversion for the vRSDI now.

Fabia VRS 06 mk1, Front electric windows only work in the summer issue.
I've had electric windows suffer due to moisture in the switches on the door panel before. Used to have to take a hair dryer to them to get them to work in winter.

You'll have to take it out entirely. To take it out: Drop lower dash panel for easier access (guides available online) Find connector to pedal and unplug. Remove bolts holding it in. Comes out as one unit, pedal and all. ^ like this, but maybe a bit neater. This was the part number for my pedal. I don't know if yours will be the same though. The part number is up at the top of the unit.

Sticking accelerator on '56 Fabia vRS
I wouldn't worry too much. It did exactly what @Wheelie1's did except it deteriorated to a point where the idle was everywhere and I was losing power as well. Plus some starting issues. Oh well, you got some research out of it, I imagine, even if it didn't bring anything back.

Throttle pedal position sensor. Failed on my 1.2. Just lob the old unit off (three bolts, maybe four), get the part number, and send away for a second hand one from a breakers, mine was £15. Have done about 6k since I replaced mine and it's running like a wee sweetie. @Pete_Ex-Wino got my old failing one for research purposes. He might be able to tell you if it's possible to fix them. Until then, I'd recommend just replacing it. Hope this helps.

Cheers, I was thinking that as well but wasn't sure.

Just as another note, I've just noticed your car doesn't have the headlight adjustment switch.

Mine is like that anyway since the air conditioning isn't working...

This all seems like a bit of a pipe dream... I'll get me coat.

I also tried it with pokes of crisps. You can't get a McCoys in there well but two packets of Mini Cheddars works just fine.

A 330ml can of most beverages fits in there horizontally. I've used it for that once or twice.

Got absolutely none of those unless added myself. I can remove my back seats fairly easily though!

AnnoyingPentium's Return Dive into Swimming... and other 'elf stuff
Another session by at the swimming, 40 lengths this week. I like to set myself that as my target, which I then break down into smaller mini-goal type things.
