My car doesn't blow hot air
1) If so, then it's likely this has split and is the base cause of the heater issues. 2) In which context, can you hear the ventilation fan running when the car is idling?

I'd suspect ASBO diesel. I use brand name fuel and never have a running problem.

Fozzy's MK3 Fabia Time Attack Race Car
Good move. I don't know about Time Attack but most other Blue Book speed classes require a solid roof on a saloon based vehicle.

Boost reversing lights?
My father used to have an Au'tin Oxymoron. I'd use the rear fog lights on it to boost the reversing light output.

Immobiliser problem
The main ECU knows that you have changed the instrument cluster and has immobilised the car until someone with a dealership computer of VCDS tells it to play nice with the new to it cluster.

Approved used - "free" MOT?
MoT certificates have not been issued for the last several years, on which basis this clause is invalid.

Help!!!!
I think this is key; ask an auto electrician to check the alternator.

Superb III facelift TA
You've already illustrated one; it comes from the numbers of people who slavishly follow the directions given, even when they are something like "Drive down the road a foot narrower than your vehicle".

@miroslav9011 I'd rather have a pratnav map than any form of Lane Enforce.

Skoda Fabia 1.4 MPI SE 2012 - start up and stalling issues
What is the indicated idle speed? The symptoms sound like they could be low idle/ early cold enrichment cancel.

Tyre pressure, ABS , Traction and front impact Steering fault lights have all illuminated at once
Read the fault codes inspect the ABS sensor, rotor and wiring on the corner that the fault is at.

Headlight scratch
Almost certainly some form of plastic. Maybe, but that depends on how deep the scratch is.

Octavia RS sudden phantom braking with no dash alerts, auto shifter very hard/stiff to operate after
Well, my idea is to change your mechanic to "not the Skoda main stealer". Also, have you seen vehicles on roads joining at junctions, or parallel with lower speed limits, or rubbish like blowing crisp packets at these times?

condensation on inside of windows, takes ages to clear even with aircon
I don't remember Rain-X Anti-Fog being scented, but that just means I didn't notice. If you want a plain glass cleaner, simple Ajax only smells (mildly) of ammonia and not of some chemical "parfam".

2000 Skoda Felica 1.3MPI 50KW
Paws4Thot replied to vladimirzootin's topic in Skoda Favorit, Skoda Felicia, Skoda Fun and Skoda FormanPower costs; how fast can you afford to go? Standard 1.3 MPi. You'll need to find parts but 1.3 MPi "Skoda Challenge" engine. 1.6 VW Golf engine; one way to do this would be to find a front "clip" from a Felica or a "Fun" pickup that's had a rear end crash. 1.8l 20v turbo. 2.8 or 3.2l VR6.There are or were at least 2 of these in the UK but they play merry He11 with the weight distribution.

LED Matrix Headlights
Thanks. I'd dip on seeing your loom, and may be triggered by a late dip from my oncoming.

LED Matrix Headlights
OK, I'm going to ask. Does this system "dip" the headlights on detecting an oncoming loom of lights or wait until oncoming's headlights are actually visible?

Battery recommendations please
@Hixy What I asked about are typical "low battery" symptoms for anything that doesn't have Stop/Start technology. Now you need to describe the symptoms more clearly than just "intermittent non starting".
