  1. We have come to the decision to sell the Swift and keep the Skoda. Spent all day, cleaning/polishing and generally checking as much as I can. Found another invoice dated August 2023 for a full service/new front and rear pads/discs at 16000miles, its only covered 1000 miles in the last two years- Dad decided to stop driving at 89. When I collected the car and drove home 150 miles mostly motorway it performed beautifully, certainly a more relaxed drive than the Swift. The only fault I can find is the DAB radio doesn't pick up any stations-FM ok. So I will have the an oil and filter change, Mot, replace original tyres and renew brake fluid. Keep my fingers crossed and hope for the best.
  2. Thanks nta16 I have the printed service history, its pretty comprehensive. Plugs changed at 8k, plus three brake fluid changes with pollen and dust filters being replaced also three times. What I'm struggling with is I have three cars, a Skoda Enyaq, a 2020 60,000 m Suzuki Swift and now the Fabia. The Suzuki was purchased new, fully dealer serviced and totally reliable. The only work being servicing, tyres / brakes plus two headlamp bulbs. It will also if dealer serviced carry Suzuki's 7yr 100.00 mile warranty. One of either the Fabia or Swift will have to go, but which one?
  3. I have just inherited my fathers Skoda fabia 1.2 Tsi SE 2015. It's been serviced at a Skoda dealer Oil changed @ 2668, 4359, 6932, 8846, 11201, 13237 miles. Vehicle has now covered just 17000 miles. I'm concerned that the timing belt has not been replaced,is this correct? Other items such as brake fluid and pollen filters have been replaced. I plan to replace the tyres due to age but can not find any information on timing belt replacement. Can you please advise, also are there any other reliability issues with this model. Many thanks
