Front seats have limited rear movement
Stock - however, the problem appears to have fixed itself, I forcefully moved the seat back, and it did so without impediment! :-)

Front seats have limited rear movement
Hard stop - a definite clunk! :-)

Front seats have limited rear movement
No seat height adjustment on the car, and the owner's manual doesn't mention anything about the topic in question :-) Not sure how I can take a picture of this - what would I be aiming for?

Front seats have limited rear movement
Thanks, will check again - I thought there might have been some sort of restraint lever that I've tripped, which allows the rearwards range of movement to be limited (for shorter people) :-)

Front seats have limited rear movement
Thanks, but both seats? They went back the way they went in, same side, nothing blocking either seat, rails weren't removed.

Front seats have limited rear movement
Hi All, I don't know what I did wrong, but when I refitted the front seats after the interior deep clean, I find that they now won't travel backwards on the rail as much as they did, prior to seat removal - what am I missing here?

Door strips - what to adhere them to the door with?
Yep, got one coming

Felicia estate 5th door seal saga....
There's another motorbike of my Son's that you can't see, in front of the car - it's a bit tight for space in the garage!

Thanks, I've ordered an aftermarket seal too.

Suspension strut brace?
I guess my Son doesn't need it then 🙂

Oil leak
I 'think' the sealing ring that I need is P/No N90801901 - I've ordered it. I was also going to buy the actual plug/bolt, but couldn't find it!

Oil leak
Hi All, you can tell it's Sunday..... we had the car up on front ramps in the garage (that was fun!), to check where the oil seepage was coming from, and it looks like the bolt/plug ringed in the attached image - can anyone tell me what this is? We'll be draining and replacing the oil next week, and at the same time, will check that bolt/plug out. I assume it's got a dodgy seal, but am guessing there is a particular seal type that I need to order/buy.

Suspension strut brace?
I don't believe so.

Suspension strut brace?
Hi All, I did take a look on this site to see if it had come up before, but I didn't find anything - my newly acquired Haynes manual shows a suspension strut brace in the engine bay, yet my Son's Felicia doesn't have one - does anyone have any info on this?

Felicia rear parcel shelf lugs
While I wait for the 3D printed parts (extended version 😄), I did indeed screw in some plastic bolts, they actually work very well!

Guide for adjusting the valve clearance
Hi Ricardo, the images are missing from your valve clearance adjustment guide, would you still have them? My son wants to adjust the clearances on his Felicia 1.3LXI. 🙂

Felicia estate 5th door seal saga....
Hmmm, the one I bought was 25gbp, so I don't want to buy another one if it isn't the right one - I've added the cross section of the original one, but I'm not cutting up the new one yet, I might return it and buy a generic one from Temu with a similar cross section This is the closest match i've seen so far
-
Felicia estate 5th door seal saga....
Yes, I just saw that too, no wonder it doesn't fit! I actually ordered this seal on the recommendation of the Skoda Club administrators here in CZ, I should have checked before ordering...... ☹️ I just checked the P/No on the new seal itself, and it is 6U9827705E - according to LLLParts catalogue, the part I need is 6U0827705E, so there's one digit wrong! I cannot find the correct part available anywhere, so I will try to use some of the old seal to extend the incorrect seal, they appear to have the same cross section.

Felicia estate 5th door seal saga....
OK, so after having ordered (and returned) the 5thd door seal which was actually the 5th door 'window' seal, I ordered an actual 5th door seal - however, we tried to fit it today, and it definitely appears to be too small! Either it is the wrong seal, or I need to stretch it somehow? Can anyone confirm if it is indeed the correct seal for the boot of my Son's '98 Felicia estate? The P/No I ordered was 6V9 827 705 E

Felicia estate rear seat release lever
Hi All, so, I ordered what I thought was the felicia estate rear seat release lever, only to receive the lower part of the boot release mechanism! The P/No in the LLLparts catalogue is shown as 6U0854375 5SE, so does anyone know the correct part number for the rear seat release lever? I've added pics of both parts.

Felicia rear parcel shelf lugs
I'm going to try and get some 3-D printed, and slightly extended by 5mm each. I already had the bonnet strut grommet and locator 3D printed, great results, for only £4!

Door strips - what to adhere them to the door with?

Door strips - what to adhere them to the door with?
So, the 3M Automotive VHB double sided tape is on it's way, which leads me to another question - as you can see from the attached images of one piece of trim, it has small residues of the previous trim tape used - do I need to remove this, if so, how? It is really difficult to remove!

Yes D 🙂

Felicia rear parcel shelf lugs
Hi All, well, after fully detailing the interior yesterday, now it almost looks like new inside (all seats out, hoovered and vax'd, all carpets hoovered and vax'd, plastic fully cleaned)- however, I frustratingly noticed that the rear parcel shelf lugs appear not to be long enough - what am I missing here? Or what are the lugs missing? Should there be some sort of end cap for the lugs? If the parcel shelf moves slightly to the left, the right lug drops out of the location recess, and vice versa, if the parcel shelf moves slightly to the right....
