Fixing door seal
I work for Renault and fitted a few to the captur, they usually go over the whole door and inside around the window. Plenty of silicone lube and you can do it without taking the door card and window out. I'd try and get a warranty claim out of it. If they cause damage get them to fix it.

Skoda connect and media
Hello does it usually take forever to register in car with Skoda connect? I have tried using my phone hotspot but it won't find it. Used my home internet but just seems to be stuck on loading screen. I don't know what type of media interface I have, it's 2020 1.5 TSI SE Technology. Touchscreen apart from two buttons at the bottom on screen. Maybe I need to update to the latest software?

Bushes lower arms Fabia Mk3 ADVICE
You can't blame them really. Most garages do a free health check on the car, it's company policy. Yes there is some wear but they could last another year maybe 2 who knows. They don't know your annual mileage and driving style etc. so have to put anything down to let you know and cover their arses.

Engine mount bolts
Might be worth taking out the bolts for downpipe mounting to remove any stress from the Flexi. Just don't go too mad and keep an eye on the pipes/hoses on top.

Engine mount bolts
If you remove the lower torsion mount on the gearbox and the upper half of the engine mount you can jack up the engine to get better access to the bolt.

They don't make em like they used to, made from rusty metal I think and just enough paint to cover the edges

Just incase anyone's after a rear wiper blade...
I found valeo silencio to be the best blades. Had some one my old car for about 7 years, still on when I sold it. Trick is to never wipe the blades, they have special graphite coating. Once you clean them they end up juddering and wearing out faster.
