  1. Does anyone know of a good lumbar support that I use in my Skoda Fabia vRS. Really get an aching back after an hour or so now. Any good reviews? Preferably something that doesn't break the bank and that holds itself in place. Thanks in advance
  2. I recently found the same oil leak problem. Can anyone direct me to a good guide on how to remove, clean and replace the egr? Thanks
  3. Still wasn't happy with my air con performance so I have booked it on wednesday to have it checked for leaks
  4. Thanks everyone... I managed to get my car to feel cool eventually in the hot weather but had to have it on full for a good 10 to 15 minutes for it to get the temperature down. to maintain it I then had to keep it on fan setting 2 with coldest setting.
  5. I recently had my air con re-gassed and cleansed at the Skoda dealers. Since having it done it doesn't seem to get the cars temperature very cool. Normally I would expect to get out of an air conditioned car and to feel warmer when I get out, however I actually felt cooler when I got out the other day. I had the air con on for at least 40 minutes (mainly motorway driving) on a minimum fan setting of 2. Does anyone have the same problem or know of any possible solutions to make the air con work better? Thanks
  6. Slightly off the main topic here.... were the dash dials expensive? Are they fairly accurate?
  7. I have had rattles with both my Skodas, they are like part and parcel with Skodas I think haha..... I have found where some of them come from (one is the panel where the end of the dash meets the door, this is especially bad when cold) Other than that there is always some rattles and squeaks and bumps (front suspension bushes are a common squeak when going over speed bumps). Its just a case of listening and finding each one to solve them
  8. I have had rear seats out many times... never the front though, can anyone direct me towards a good set of instructions (ideally with pictures) for removing front seats? (Fabia vRS - Cloth & Heated)
  9. Looks like a smart way to make the dash trim look smarter. Would be good to see some photos of it when complete
  10. There's a tip for everyone... Let's call them kItten or cat photos so there is no confusion when others see the word pussy! haha
  11. So I'm guessing Lazy Daisy has kitten photos too... right?
  12. Not sure if this is the right place to post this threat, apologies if I got it wrong. My front driver side wheel has been whistling when at slow speeds (30 mph and less) on right hand bends (gentle bends). I had the wheel off to check all the pads etc to see if I could spot anything. The Skoda garage (when it was in for service) suggested that they think it could be the 'Front suspension role bar retainer bracket' as its split, although I am not convinced that is the cause. Anyone had a similar problem or have any suggestions as to what it could be? This is on a Skoda Fabia vRS (2004) Thanks
  13. Have you advertised elsewhere as well as on here? I'm sure you can sell it... they are sought after (so I'm told). I was going to blame the lack of a sale on the fact that you live in a sparsely populated area of the country but with Glasgow and Edinburgh on your doorstep you must be able to find some interested people willing to make a sensible offer.
  14. Saw a sticker on the back of someones car the other day saying: "I'm not a bad driver, I'm just avoiding the potholes!" Anyone know good place that I can browse comedy stickers etc incase I felt the urge to randomly purchase said random items? :wonder:
