Hi and apologies if it's been asked before. Driving on the motorway earlier, lost power and a few seconds later the glow plug light was flashing. Also 'Start-Stop Error' showed on the display. Was able to get off the motorway and get home safely. Called the RAC today and they were unable to get out to my location so they sent a sub-contractor out on their behalf but they just recovered the car. The guy reckons it could be injector fault?.....I have no knowledge on these things. I suppose the only way is to get a diagnostic reader. Basically a rough idea of what to expect and approx costs to fix? Thanks in advance I'm in a 2014 Rapid 90bhp p.s. When I checked the car a short time ago the heat plug light was not flashing

Oh, I wasnt aware of a known fault. Will have to have a dig around the other threads 👍🏻

The autospark didn't really look. Into too much. I just drove up with no appointment so i guess he was busy with other stuff. He did however suggest buying a whole new fuse box from the breakers and a new heating regulator. Then he went on to say a 30amp fuse is too much. Reckons by the state of the blown fuse, i was lucky the car didn't catch fire. My knowledge on this kind of thing isn't great. I will now check for any corrosion as you mentioned and see about getting another 30amp fuse.

Hi, sorry if this has been asked before. Heater fan isn't working on any number. Called to an auto spark and he investigated the fuses. Fuse number 32 well blown, in fact, almost melted with a big black burnt bubble on it. The fuse was 30amp, he changed it to 15amp. Less than 10mins of me leaving, the fan stopped working again. Any ideas? 2014 Rapid. Thanks in advance

Hi folks, I've seen guides on here for this but I cannot for the life of me find where the heater resistor is on my Dad's 2014 1.6 Rapid. I have removed the glovebox but unless my eyes are painted on(which is a possibility!) I just can't seem to locate it. Any help would be much appreciated Thanks in advance Kev :)

Thanks Gonna make the most of this weather and get cleaning!

I'm wondering if anyone can help? I've not got any of the correct sockets that will help me remove the front seats. I'm wanting to give it a good clean out and there is so much rubbish the hoover can't get!! Can anyone provide me with the correct size of socket that I would need? Thanks in advance

Got sorted. Used a different machine(and I think the boss man did it this time!!). Relief!

Fair point yeah. Tho as someone said, I should maybe take them a spin and let them see just how bad/off it is.

I seen the guy putting a clamp type thing resting on the drivers seat attached to the steering wheel. I must go back in today

I like Kuhmo myself. Got two new ones on the front today. KH11 I think.

2006 Fabia vRS by the way...

Hi folks, Got 2 new front tyres today and while I was there I got the alignment done. The guy said it was off(as suspected). My question is(and I will go back ASAP)....why is the actual steering wheel sitting slightly to the left? If I were to drive 'straight' then I'm for the other side of the road!.

Thanks, Will do!

Mine is an 06 vrs. £10....not too bad. I'll have to check it out.
