Skoda fabia 1.2htp turbo project
You need a 2 bar MAP sensor for boost measurement, standard MAP sensor will probably be 1 bar for a N/A engine.

Skoda fabia 1.2htp turbo project
11 BHP, are you KIDDING me! From 64 to 75 on a N/A 1.2, what the hell are they smoking? Whatever it is they're obviously rolling it up using gullible idiots money for the rolling papers. I would definitely check which ECU you have before giving them any of your rolling papers!

I don't think you can remap the ECU if it's a Siemens or a Marelli unit.

Sluggish gear change
Did I mention that changing the gearbox oil is a complete waste of time and money a month ago? I see that the linkage has still not been correctly reset and now it's actually worse. You need to find an independent VW specialist and ask them to reset the linkage.

Fabia 1.4 tdi (AMF) boost pressure.
Diesel engines don't make a vacuum, that's why there's a special pump to make it instead. Torque isn't reliable enough for diagnosis purposes so it's safe to ignore it, it's a solution in search of a problem.

Service messages refuse to reset.
Your reset switch has probably failed in the cluster or it's stuck on.

Work the switch from hot to cold and back again a few times, the flap can get stuck.

Red oil light
Ok, go with J.R. suggestion and check the pickup is clean and clear.

Red oil light
Road speed is irrelevant, engine RPM and oil temperature are the only two factors affecting oil pressure in this case. If you let the engine idle when it's hot does the oil light come on?

Electric Windows
No.

Red oil light
The main bearings are worn out and are not holding the oil film, I'm surprised you can't hear the rumble at lower RPM.

Skoda Fabia 1.2 AZQ Timing Help
In answer to your questions: 1. It would be a very good idea to replace the chain while you have it in bits. 2. No.

I have a question for you, what went wrong with your engine when only one valve got bent?

Remote control for skoda fabia mrk 1
Not without getting it recoded and you can't do it yourself so realistically, no.

Fuel Sensor
I too think your tank sensor needs replacing, it's an easy job and the part is not that expensive.

Both front windows not working
The battery is duff, 12.1V means it's being charged but it's not holding that charge.

Coolant / Oil Mayo issue
No, it's cracked.

Coolant / Oil Mayo issue
You need to check the oil cooler but other than that it's a cracked casting.

Check for vacuum leaks in the brake servo pipework, fix any you find and clear the codes.

Foglight Connector Trouble.
Has the rubber gasket come off the plug, if so get it out of the socket, refit it, then push the plug back on.

EPC light with no error codes.
Ok, it seems they're compatible with both diagnostic protocols.
-
EPC light with no error codes.
I think all the Mark 2's are CAN and not K-line so it won't work.

Skoda Fabia 1.2 AZQ Timing Help
Ok, but you'd have to move both sprockets exactly the same amount and without degree markings that's practically impossible, too easy to get in a mess and make things worse. I'd leave well alone.

Skoda Fabia 1.2 AZQ Timing Help
You won't improve the timing, if, as you say the timing has shifted slightly after turning the engine over twice then this is down to chain stretch and unless you have a vernier sprocket you won't be able to get it perfect.
