Are the rear tread blocks worn into a "saw-tooth" pattern ( deeper at one end than the other; can be felt if not seen by running a hand round the tyre both ways)? If so, the tech is correct and the fixes are:- Swap rear tyres side to side if asymmetric pattern (will be marked "outside" on outsides), and not directional (marked with direction of rotation). Swap front and rear tyres on each side (LHR to LHF and vice versa; similarly for RH F and R) if tyres are directional.

Wiring, not sensor then. The code tells you which corner to check rather than what the fault is.

I can't remember the issues, but I'm pretty sure the build was in Performance VW, and one appears in the "for sale" half pages in either CLassic and Sports Car or Classic Cars.

Maybe an issue with "lane enforce"? George, Ashley Neal has similar feelings about it to I do, and for much the same reasons.

@phazed With how cheap they are (~£12 the last time I checked), maybe buy it a new expansion/pressure bottle?

@Newton_Durham - Well, if "enter brain" says to get the Octavia then the choice is clear; buy the Superb!

Failure for sure, because it will adversely affect service braking (and handbrake) performance.

Which hasn't actually always worked as a suicide device since catalytic converters became mandatory on new cars.

I know it's not a Skoda, but my boss replaced a Pug 207 with a 208 Estate.

Ok, a day is a period of 24 hours. A trickle charger will deliver an initial current of maybe 3Ah reducing as the battery nears capacity. Simple arithmetic then shows that, with the current flow reducing as the battery fills, it takes days to fill the battery with a trickle charger. So called "smart" chargers are another beast entirely.

And that's why this is not a DPF regeneration folks.

Big clue as to the issue highlighted in bold. LEDs have much lower resistance, so, unless you have ballasts on them they read as "failed" to the monitor.

Use gas welding rather than an electric arc system?

A trickle charger will take 2 or 3 days repeat days to charge a battery.

Mild steel. 😐

Definitely white. It the garage think that is blue, change your garage!

@Anon1066 Petrol or diesel engine? If it was a diesel I'd say bad glow plugs, particularly if the smoke smells of diesel fuel. Otherwise, is the coolant level changing from "normal"? Is the oil level rising?

A good auto doesn't need flappy paddles or a tip.

I don't know for sure because I don't know what the airbox is moulded from. What has worked for me (subject to the glue not melting the plastic) is to half fill the screw recess with an epoxy resin, fit the screw immediately and leave the resin to go off for at least 24 hours.

Possibly to a name like www.Russian_Mafia.co.ru/ransomware.exe ?

Correct; the only certain way to find out the PIN is to get a Skoda main stealer to get it for you.

That's the serpentine belt, also known as the auxiliary drive belt. It shouldn't actually have oil on it, but as long as it's not slipping there won't be an issue. It is not the timing belt, which requires some dismantling (removal of covers) to inspect.

In the top post, click the ellipsis (...) top right, select "Report", and when that screen opens select "thread in wrong forum" add a narrative of "please move my thread to Fabia 2 forum", and OK.

Guys, the "complex bits" is the electronnicy control systems, and a Scalextric car has just as many of those as an ICE engine one does.
