Yes i have a faulty microswitch ,been like that for a couple of years! First time ive locked keys in though ,i was rushing to get home and totally forgot, we live and learn!

Yes the uppy downy window bit. Oh well i was hoping to just go around my local breakers yards and find a replacement from any fabia of similar age ,probably going to be a bit harder to find an estate. Thanks for the link ,if i cant find one locally i will order one .

Hi all , had a nightmare last night leaving work ,i locked my keys in car ! Ended up having to smash rear drivers side window . Looking for a replacement, are the Windows the same in my estate/combi as normal hatchback ?

Just seen #713 for sale on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/298894896987314/permalink/588835294659938/?sale_post_id=588835294659938

Fabia vrs se for sale,looks a bit rough but might be of interest to someone on here,not mine by the way! https://m.facebook.com/groups/298894896987314?view=permalink&id=579124692297665

I am on to my third car with a vw 1.9tdi pd engine 1. skoda octavia had 30k when i got it 105k when i sold it.(only got rid because i needed a 7 seater to fit 5 kids in!) 2. ford galaxy had 35k on clock when i got it , when i sold it due to gearbox problems(automatic) it had done 250k! 3. skoda fabia (56 plate) purchsed in febuary has only just broke the 40k mark. if as you say you have serviced it regularly, with the correct oil ect, it should easily take you past the 200k and beyond.

thanks guys.....almost ordered 55s!

Hi all, apologies for the question ,but i have used the search function and am still confused! i have a 2006 fabia 1.9tdi elegance estate. just purchased some 16" fabia vrs alloys , what is the correct tyre size that will fit my car? i was thinking 205 55 16?

MAF sensor?

Yes brake lights and all other lights are working, that was the first thing I checked

Hi , sorry it seems my original post didn't appear. had my fabia for a couple of weeks , first problem I noticed was the wet carpet in n/s rear footwell. Thanks to this forum I have purchased some plumbers gold and intend to fix this when we get a bit warmer weather (worried the sealant wont cure as its too cold) next problem was flashing glow plug light. Again this very good forum pointed me in the right direction of the brake light switch. I have done a scan with vcds lite and found two error codes- 16955 brake switch implausible signal 18097 powertrain databus implausible message from elec controller intermittent is the second code something to do with cruise control? ,and linked with the switch problem? i'm hoping so because cc doesn't work! looking on euro car parts website there are a couple of switches to choose from(I'm assuming the one I need is a 4 pin type) part no - 464440011 or part no - 464440090 which one would be the correct one ,or would I be better getting one from main dealer

Thanks for reply. Yes I have checked ,all lights are working.
