  2. Evening! Hope you enjoy the red bus, and any issues, post in the sections :) also, dont forget to nose around the social zone, we are a friendly crowd for the most part and always good for a chat!
  3. Hi @Lucchese , good luck with the Volvo, its on my very very short list of possible marques to replace my octavia with. just remember, you can still visit Brisky, theres a lot of us that the skoda fold and stayed, and returned (or not) to ownership and stayed, so dont be a stranger 👍😁
  4. it happens!!
  5. welcome to the forum ! Just a teeny reminder that the forum does use english as its base language. I know google translate isnt perfect, but it doea a good job of helping people out with getting help 😁
  6. Hi Scott, Welcome to brisokda! Hope you find any help you might need with your car in the fabia model section. Dont forget to check out the social sections too, we are a generally friendly bunch 😉 and as you found the Brisky forrest already, if you like what you see after a while, feel free to plant a sapling or two 🙃
  7. Did you ever go for a wander in the woods and find them trees?
  8. Welcome to the forum to you and your dad 🙃 If you need help or advice with anything, just search in the Scala sub forum, (most issues have been had by someone already) and if still stuck post a new thread. also dont forget to checknout the social, non car areas, we are a friendly bunch all round.
  9. Hi, and welcone to the team 👋
  10. Morning, ive just moved your post from the classic parts section which requires admin approval to post in. you specify whether your vehicle is a mk1 or mk2 2007 Fabia. i guessed with mk1, but if im wrong let me know.
  11. Please stop posting email addresses within the posts on the thread. this isnt a good idea for individual internet security. please use the pm function for sharing personal info, only with members you feel you can trust with that information. thread is being locked for now.
  12. Hi @TheBlackedOutSuperb your thread was posted in the wrong section so got held up in limbo. Its in the right place now. let me know if you already reposted about the question or found a solution please? tha ks
  13. Hi @leecho66 just popped this into the mk2 Octavia section for you, to get a better chance of help with hot starting 👍
  14. crafted not built.. gawjus, even if not a preferred colour. a bright white, deep red or maybe a royal blue would be car prawn....
  15. I cant remember if the passat seats use the same rails as the mk4 golf platform. so check exactly what car they came out of. assuming they are actually mk4 golf platform - fronts will fit no problem. I think the wiring loom can be fitted without too much hassle. rears might fit but look "wrong" as the shapes across the platform models are slightly different. from memory, the golf seats are narrower than octavia's so leave a gap along the edge.
  16. Well, you need to be a bit more exact about what you want to take apart. theres a lot of different bits. numerous guides for different jobs will have instructions for taking that area apart. eg threads on door lock issues will tell you how to disassemble the door cards - including the switch modules in them. if your even reasonably handy with a screwdriver and torx set (im assuming you must be if your willing to tackle led replacements on circuit boards) you figure it out pretty quick. top of my head - the headlight switch > put it to the corner lights (12 o clock) push the switch into the dash, rotate it and then it will pull out.
  17. My 10 yr old is currently working his way through the entire binky series :) Its a youtube thing i have no issues with him watching unsupervised, unlike so much of the car related dross i have found him watching... hes really enjoying it and he told me 20mins agonhed just seen theres a new episode out 👍
  18. Havent watched either of them. ive just listened to a couple of podcasts that have covered it (in rather hilarious fashion to be honest, along with several other conspiracy theories, just a couple of Those Guys.. who discuss Conspiracies. yeah, im quite sceptical (theres even guide to universe i listen to) but i enjoy listening to stuff from both sides of that fence :)
  19. this one looks like those car-icatures that were popular back in the early 00s. (ya know the ones that gave civics huge wheels, and tiny windscreens, but massive spoilers and bonnets scoops )
  20. Im slightly more concerned about the lad that appears to have been Philadelphia-project'ed into the wall of the building.. it appears the AI has been partially trained on Conspiracy theories 🤣🤣
  21. Hi @Greycar You have put this in the website help section. a mod @Dean might move it to the relevant car model section of the forum for you. in relation to your issue though, it sounds to me like a frayed wire in the door controller unit or wiring harness that goes from the door the main body of the car. its moving about while you drive and causing a short thats activating the locking circuit.
  22. from what i saw the plaintiff said the onboard driver log had recorded his 25mile standard commute as a 75mile journey on a number of occasions. i dont think Warrior was necessarily making a claim about the range per cycle discrepancy, more so putting it out there as a possibility it could impact on it.
  23. from what i have read, the issue isnt with it altering the range, but with manipulating the total odometer mileage until it reads over the warranty cover distance in a shorter time period than it should reach that limit. range manipultaion was a different lawsuit a couple of yrs ago 😆😆
  24. its on thestreet.com classaction.org and carcomplaints.com its not getting media coverage because, well, lets face it the current US new media sphere is being very quiet about most things even loosely connected to Elon or Trump 🤷‍♂️ if i had more details than that i would them, but its all i have at the minute. Im sure it doesnt affect every vehicle, these things rarely do, and it may be a jurisdictional thing - ie its only been done in certain places. but it may be worth tracking for anyone with a tesla
  25. Why do you think Elon is slowly trying to gut all the US safety administrations and consumer protections are being stripped by Donny...
