Thanks Forgot the darn number of the garage and was too busy at work to ring them anyway Driving home today - Ping Ping Ping Warning light pretty much stayed on I have a feeling - from reading other posts, that its likely a circuit shorting out due to damp in my boot as my rear window always seems to be badly misted up. Its a total pain - especially just before the holiday season and the time of year where all the old cars are conking out taking garages time up :(

Hi All - Update RAC couldn't diagnose the problem Battery is fine Showed me how to lock the car without the alarm. Off to the garage tomorrow - Ho Hum... :(

LOL - My husband does the exact same thing! I however - being somewhat lazy - park my car next to reasonably nice ones but somewhere nearer the front (as someone else said - avoid the tatty ones) - Oh and I avoid parking next to seriously jazzy cars - if they've got that much money they wont care about anyone else! There's something to be said about other parking - pfft - I'm very particular and get annoyed if I'm not bob on in the middle - but squiffy parking is a nightmare for getting the kids in / out. Either way - your right - I should park further away.... the times I've seen people bump others cars and they just swan off as if nothing ever happend - I feel for you.

Hi there I tried posting this in Techie (thinking it was the best place) but system wouldn't let me - please forgive me if this is in the wrong place. Skoda fabia 2 HB. 2008 model. Still in Warranty. Bought April this year I'm good at war & peace efforts (sorry) but giving as much detail so you can help me out best Driving to work, been pretty cold last few weeks, so on comes the air con to de mist (not sure if this is relevant - but telling you guys anyway) About 7-10mins into my journey the 'door open' light and alarm pings, in doing so the interior light also flashes on, it does this whilst I'm indicating. So - I pull over, get out - test all the doors. Back in, drive off, does it again, not signalling, so I turn off interior light (& Air con), Does'nt Ping for a while. at work about 7 mins later, and it does it again. I do regular short journeys - but did discuss this with Skoda prior to purchase (bout 15-40min stints each day) Same happened on the way back to home. - however, pick the kids up, car alarm goes off whilst I'm in the building. Darn oh god I hope it didn't do that whilst I was at work all day - car park isn't situated where I work - its about a 7mins walk away! - eeek - flat battery? Get home after several - 'PINGs' (its really annoying isn't it! Some time later (and intermittently) off the car alarm goes After the god knows what time, alarm goes off again, so I go sit in the car. with everything off, no key in ignition. About 10mins later the 'door open' light flashes on - literally quick as a blink (i nearly missed it) - Ahh Ha - mystery to why alarm is going off. I've called Skoda Assistance out - but to be honest no idea what they can do Sooooo.... What's causing the door open alarm / light coming on? What can I do about it? Thanks

Skoda newbie here I'm Sarah & live in Staffordshire with the husband and twins. Got my (Black) Skoda Fabia 2 1.2 12v Hatchback 2008 model this year - Love it. Much better than the heap I used to drive. Found this forum when I was searching for my car - found it very useful - had to register cause I need help!! Cheers (in advance)
