  1. I have previously had this issue which was the mechanism on the top of the gearbox. A spray with WD40, followed up with the oil can cured this. get someone to do the left to right gearlever action while you look under the bonnet to identify relevant/required movements.
  2. Starting point from the old fabia-vrs forum, this should confirm if it is actually possible. Enable Cruise Control Using VAG-COM (VCDS) Connect your OBDII lead to the car. Switch on the ignition and start VAG-COM (VCDS) Carry out a full check for stored error codes, note and reset any that you find. You will need to ensure that your Board Network Controller is suitable for Cruise Control. Open the controller 09 and ensure it is either 6Q0 or 6Q1 and not 6Q2. Open controller 01, when it logs in you should, in the upper right corner, see either OOOOSG if cruise isn’t enabled or GOOOSG if cruise is enabled. To enable cruise, choose option 11 Log In and enter the code 11463. Close the controller, then open the controller again and confirm that GOOOSG is shown. You can also confirm by starting the car, stopping it and then scanning for codes on controller 01. You should have a fault code logged which reads something like cruise control system signal implausible. Clear the code and put your VAG-COM (VCDS) away.
  3. I would suggest that that is the security code for the radio.
  4. The unit linked from Ebay is a Windows CE operating system looking at the advert image with 24 items on - top row RH side - so unsure what apps you can load onto it. Stated as 256Mb of Ram where the simplest Android units are a minumum of 1Gb, 2Gb or more prefered. There may be someone to comment on Widows CE system performance.
  5. Unsure if it would actually give different results as it would probably be reading the same output, but VCDS should give values, or an OBD2 bluetooth adaptor with Torque on an Android phone or tablet.
  6. Do these MS5S sizes align, half the price or 10 just a bit dearer. 1.5v 0.09w Minature MS5S Bulb New | eBay
  7. I would suggest watching this video, rolling road testing of tuning boxes.
  8. I have mounted a 12v socket on mine to power my Nextbase DAB/bluetooth adaptor, with requires a plug in power source, but the requirement for power is the same as a USB. I used a piggyback fuse adaptor as typically below and used it on in an ignition powered fuse in the fusebox. This gives the option of using the original fuse rating for the sockets use, and also using an appropriate fuse for the tapping. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ATOF-STANDARD-LARGE-PIGGY-BACK-BLADE-FUSE-HOLDER-TAP-12V-AUTOBEAM/254640779624?hash=item3b49c5f168:g:I70AAOSwKelc-Xuq
  9. Unless there is history of a change, I would say now given that the car is 12 years old.
  10. A bit of history required:- Did the new turbo ever function properly. Did you EGR delete when the new turbo was fitted. If you did it yourself, how did you do it and if through a map edit have you tried re-loading the old map. While I would not expect much boost at 1400rpm, if you used an OBD2 dongle, an android phone and Torque you can view boost in real time.
