Always fitted fine.

Is there power steering fluid in to the right level?

I don’t think the cbbb engine has an egr cooler. The valve is at the front of the engine unlike the next engine can’t recall the code cfgb where it does and is it at the back of the engine and used to be problematic and expensive to change. Could just be the oil cooler that’s an issue? If I get a moment I’ll look up the diagram.

Crank shaft sensor is below the oil filter and towards the gaerbox.

They do have one. Climb into the boot via the back seats. On the lock there is a slot to turn. If I remember right.

My arm failed like this…. At 206k miles

Better view of the arms

Would appear to be this

Take note of the post above, changed my shocks and springs then this happened… Arms are not dear, avs car parts has all the bits,so change the arms and bolts both sides and got realigned. Then renewed the front suspension too.

Hi has anyone got any advice on replacing the lower external door trim please. Mine has decided to flake. What part number? Where to get it? Is it obtainable? Is it easily removable? And how do you replace it. Would appreciate any help to the questions Thankyou

A replacement part is: 3T0810773A The motor part of the mechanism wears over time as it locks and unlocks each time you lock and unlock the car. Either buy cheap of ebay £20 or Horton Skoda sell them online for about £48. To change it you unlock the flap and open. Remove a screw. Remove the fuel cap Pull off the rubber cover surround off. I think there is one more screw to undo. Remove it by sliding it out. I would advise you cut the cables and reconnect them on the old and new one. This a is easier than removing the internal boot trim to get a the awkwardly placed plug and B makes it easier to replace next time if you go for a cheaper unit. Did mine about a month ago.

I don’t know but really? The seats in my mk1 were way better than the mk2 ones. Mk1 were like arm chairs. Mk2 are well just pants in comparison really.

Well number one change the oil in it. Can really help. Takes two litres.

Did you get it fixed? if not I have a lead to sell that works to tell the ecu the egr is working even if it isn’t. As long as your engine code isn’t CBBB, which is the earlier engine with egr at the front of bonnet and not the back.

Yeah I didn't say much there - was on lunch break I guess - sorry It could be an ABS sensor with those lights. A duff battery if it has had a long service light will bring up lots of errors and dash lights too. As above do a VCDS scan and it will pin point it right to which ABS sensor it is.

Put a new battery in it.

While this isn't going to be the answer to your problem maybe it will help you solve it. On my Mk1 I had the fans come on and they came on like jet fighter engines. They would always come on when the ignition was on. I looked at many things, the electrical schematics, the so called control modules that are brought up on the web. But nope i could not work it out. A licenced VCDS would not see an error code either. Now I can't remember how I worked it out maybe it was the the simplest thing to change in the electrical schematic, but it was in fact the air conditioning pressure sensor failed but in state that meant no error code had come up it was just asking for the fans to come on max. I swapped it and the issue went (luckily the sensor was on a Schrader valve). Maybe have a closer look at the DPF pressure sensor or temp sensor.

The timing belt does not need to jump a tooth for the cam sensor to say hi im not happy, as I’ve found out and was scratching my head in confusion. If the belt was put on but far enough to the in range limit, then as the belt expands slightly with age it hits the limit for the cam sensor to say hey it’s not right. Put a new belt on set it up right, adjust the pulley cam pulley when doing it. To be safe get a new cam sensor put in as the belt has to come off anyway to change it. Mine did show in vcds cam crank sensor issue though. It allowed it to turn over but not start. Although I’ve changed many cam belts, it took my two attempts at setting this one up right, even with the tools. First time it was only so very slightly out, which normally wouldn’t be an issue. It got mine going again first click of the key. It’s was only minutely out by eye.

The unsealed gromit will cause this much water to enter, the high pressure in the area of the windscreen causes air and fluid to enter the low pressure of the cabin by any route. Hence also the usual water issue on the other side. I have seen this issue before on another car which had a swimming pool in it out the drivers side. Remove the rear passenger well plug of a while to let the damp out. There will be tonnes of water undert he carpet in the insulation foam.

Yep, got the timing tool set and Skoda manual to follow. All seams okay. Wound it round several times to recheck before putting the covers on.

Hi, I need some help with my superb 2009 tdi cr 170. It had an issue where it would start from cold every time. But once warm it would take about 5 attempts to start. The glow plug lamp would come on and engine would not fire. I did a vcds which said bank 1 out of correlation. I then changed the cam belt, the timing looked okay and the new timing positions look fine with the new belt on. At the same time I replaced the cam sensor as it is located behind the timing belt. Since then it has only started once, and never again. Now I’m a bit stumped. The vcds read out I get is below which is the same as before. Any suggestions I would appreciate. I’m pondering if I’ve got some broken wires in the working harness?

my normal lights now. and my head lights

best photo I have of it. Red pipe goes into hose connected with clip, does a tight turn and clips into plastic box with clip. awkward pipe to get to sit in position correctly to allow those clips to go fully home. Be sure they are. The turbo pressure will push the pipe off otherwise especially if the car is remapped.

I can confirm that my main beam was very bright, but dipped beam was appalling when I changed mine.. difference is amazing on dipped lights now 😁
