  1. https://www.autodoc.co.uk/car-parts/oem/000915105dg This is the OEM number for the battery that most likely was fitted from new 000 915 105 DG I suspect someone dropped in a battery just to flog it, but would need a VIN lookup check to assume I was correct. https://www.tayna.co.uk/car-batteries/types/096/ You want to choose "Wet" as you say you don't have EFB/AGM (stop/start batteries) I would stick to around 70-72Ah area if you do upgrade, as no sense fitting a 77Ah monster that might not be any use overall.
  2. Best way is to not get too attached, it's a means of getting you from A-B safely.
  3. What battery is currently fitted to the car? Could be handy to know and give better advice.
  4. Welcome, hope you are enjoying your Fabia 🤝

  10. Have you tried the air vents in all directions? And have you had a fault code reader on the car before you spend loads with Skoda?

  14. I can only send you the factory release, as for FDM, please install as an addon to your browser. I use firefox and have no issues. The links are only alive for 24hrs, so if you take your time they will expire.
  15. I only have the factory release, not the "patch" version. So you can have that, or you can download Free Download Manager to split the flle download and speed it up.
  16. Yes, but that can break things, not worth doing IMHO.
  17. I have no idea, I have never used Apple phone
  18. Mine are just standard H7 bulbs, but had bi-xenon etc.
  19. For me, there is no additional high beam H7, only the D1S. I could be wrong, but part 9 is fog lamp, and the 2nd part 9 is same location with a long life H7. Anyhow, I could be wrong, images of them off/dipped/high beam will show up what's what.
  20. Well the minimum you can do is take a few pictures of the dipped beam, then high beam activation (ideally at night, but daytime can work if you can see difference) Then you can think about the next steps, as we know already that the dealership is having you on with the bulb price alone (no idea why they cannot take the old bulb out and transfer!?!) Best of luck, hope to see some pictures later or a video if possible.
  21. I did mention you need a 2nd person to assist you, so that you can observe what is happening. Even in the daylight, which is not ideal you could get some pictures of dipped and high beam so we can see if you have additional bulb lighting up. Don't overthink things, you have a stalk on your steering column, that sends a signal to a control unit when you ask for high beam, this is then sent to the headlights to operate either an additional bulb, or a mechanical shutter. I am saying that you might just have a break in the wire that sends the signal to the driver side, and the dealers want to stiff you for a new headlight when it could just be a broken wire. Meanwhile you pay for a new light you don't need and weirdly a bulb that you can get for about forty quid.
