Thanks so much for that! Perfect! Found and ordered the parts. I'm definitely keeping a note of that site!

Hi, I've been searching online for new (exterior) window weather seals for my 2011 Fabia Greenline and can't seem to find any anywhere. I've even tried 4 scrapyards with no luck. It's like looking for hen's teeth trying to find these old estates (which I suppose is a good sign). Does anyone have any suggetsions - where I might find them or if there's anything in the VAG range that would fit? Thanks. Fingers crossed.

Thanks for the pointers guys. Re the air con: I hardly ever use it - usually just to clear the windscreen in winter and the noise is happening whether it's on or off. I'll try leaving it on for a while and see if it makes any difference. I'm just glad it's nothing to do with the DPF. I was quoted £1,500 for a new exhaust last year (dealer only part inc DPF and cat) so I ended up just having a section replaced which meant removing a sensor and refitting it in the new section. I thought that might have caused problems. I've got a really good mechanic I've been taking my cars to for years. I'll tell him what you said and get him to look at it. I'll let you know what he finds. Cheers.

Thanks for the quick reply sepulchrave! It's going in for a service and MOT next month so I'll ask him to have a look at that. In the meantime I'll just use the old trick of turning the radio up! Cheers!

Hi everyone. I'm new to the site so sorry if this has already been answered. I have searched and can't seem to find anything to pin this down. I've had my 2011 Greenline diesel for nearly a year now and for the past few months it's been been making a really annoying noise that I can only describe as clhirping like a cricket!! I can only hear it inside the car, it seems to be coming from the front offside and I can't connect it to anything in particular. It only lasts a few secconds and happens randomly while driving and when idling. Performance, handling and fuel consumption are all fine but I'm wondering if something is going to suddenly pack in. Could it be something to do with the DPF regenerating? Any help greatly appreciated.
