  1. Not on the fabia as the mk 1,2 & 3 all sit on the same platform and have the same wheel PDC 5X100
  2. Yes a lot of VAG wheels will fit as long as they're 5x100
  3. I take it you got a MK2 vRS so the parts you need are Oil filter 03C115561H Fuel filter 1K0201051K Sump plug N90813202 Cabin filter 6R0819653 Can't do air filter as I've got a pipe cross one in my vRS estate hope it helps you out
  4. I tend to use OEM parts as much as possible on my vRS estate as you get some come back if it goes wrong I have use Bosch part before and there good got Bosch plugs and coll pack in at the moment and wiper blades had no problems with them at all
  5. I've got Twenty20 Daylight +150 H7 in my fabia rs they are £22.99 (pair) from ABD.co.uk Where a lot better than the standard Halogen bulbs more light on the road and the hotspot is more were you need it be but can't give you a full review to winter and the very dark nights 👍
  6. to be honest i'm getting it done to stop big problems all coming at once as timing chains, water pumps and turbos are weak points. Normally i do it but too busy with work and my dad pass a way no long ago so still dealing with that and i get on with my local skoda dealer and they going to check the hole car over for me at the same time. It give me a head start were to look as i will do most of the work on it as i want to upgrade most parts as i plan to keep it forever.
  7. i'm back in a fabia vRS estate ( had 3 of them now ) i forgot how much fun they are to drive not had it long it need some TLC but got skoda service history up to 2016 and it been serviced at the same place the last 5 years and in them 5 years it's only covered 20.000 miles. engine is good no oil problems still on full mark after 500 miles but its book in for timing chain and water pump at skoda as i can't seem to find it ever being changed and it's on 140.000 miles now. DSG is good on problems (but need to check to see if it's had the recall) will be when it go for it's timing chain. in general it's not in bad shape bodywork is ok need some paint work on some parts wheels need a refurb but it's 9 years old so it's going to need some work and i can upgrade part as i go so looking forward to see were i end up with the car as they have a lot of porential to be a great little car
  8. i'm back in a fabia vRS estate ( had 3 now ) forgot how much fun they are to drive some pics of the new toy

  10. very interesting will need to look into this more as i want to remap my 2.0 TSI sportline and get the DSG mapped as well
  11. took my dads SE L 1.5 TSI for it's service yesterday and said about EPC light being on all the time seem it a faulty pressure sensor they need to order one in as they run out. so look like it's a common problem
  12. Rsrob replied to AndyC's topic in Skoda Karoq
    It's the Bridgestone tyres they are crap In the cold weather and on snow my dad got them on his SE L 1.5 DSG
  13. Thank you I've got a lot more planed for it but lock down is not helping but i'll get there in the end
  14. The best fix for this is bosch aerotwin a 684 s for the front wipers and bosh a 331 h for the rear wiper both my sportline and my dads SE L had judders and sticky wipers and the bosch wipers fix it
  15. Little update got some winter tyres fitted to the sportline there continental wintercontact ts 830 p in 225/50/R18 and there not to bad at all
  16. Rsrob replied to Tim1631's topic in Skoda Karoq
    On the sportline lane assist is a opinion should be standard but its not
  17. You get the remaining year lifted on the warranty and road side assistance
  18. Yes they are a pain I've tryed everything to stop it even got some new ones week later the same 🤬
  19. as of MY21 no rechargeable torch in boot down to cost cutting
  20. On short trips about low 20mpg to mid 30mpg on long trips high 30 mog to 40mpg it's not to bad on fuel for a 2.0 TSI
  21. Would of been more then 6500 miles but with lockdown did't need it for 2 months Eco mode is ok but living in the country side it's up and down hill a lot so can't really take advantage of the lift and coast
  22. my dealer fitted it for me cost me £45 + vat
  23. To start with i've had the sportline 12 month now and covered 6.500 miles in it i'm very happy with the Karoq sportline it a good all-rounder its good at all things i've asked it to do Good Points Looks great, For a sporty SUV Drive train, 2.0 TSI is very good the DSG is great works very well had no problems at all the 4X4 well it one of the thing that in the back ground helping you out if need Roomy, swallowed 4 people and luggage for a weeks hol in scotland doing the NC500 Comfy, the seats are one of the best i've ever sat in on long trips LED headlight, are about the best i've had on a car to date Pan sunroof, lets so much light into the car with a black interior Virtual cockpit, love it should be standard on all Karoq sportlines Bad Points Econorny, was never going to be good but long runs can get 40MPG but its hard work short runs mid 20 MPG to low 30MPG most of the time Wiper, dreadful squeeling things replace with bosch aerotwin as soon as you get the car The fake exhaust trims, why skoda why??? Power, 190 BHP is good but would of like a little more coming from a octy vRS with 300BHP but can add more Verdict The Karoq sportline is a very good all rounder you get a lot of standard kit and it will do all of what you want it to do as a SUV i'm very pleased with my sportline it's one of the best Skoda i've owned
  24. Update time again Well my sportline is 12 months old now and had its first service on friday and i get them to fit my alcantara steering that had on my octy vRS to the sportline need to mod one or two thing switch needed changing and i need a octy 2018 model air bag to fit it but i had got all the thing need to do it. I think it looks good something a little bit different and works with the alcantara armrest cover
  25. fitted LED w16w bulbs to my sportline the indicators are standard LED w16w bulbs and the reverse are 80w LED w16w bulbs off ebay
