You've written soooooo much in here in recent times, I'm not sure that your 'haven't got time' argument holds much sway. 😆

Downside of multi-electrode plugs is that there's more metal in between the spark and the mixture being ignited by it. You don't get multiple sparks one to each ground electrode. Watch out for reg number look-ups at the likes of ECP; there can be very wrong results amongst correct ones offered.

Not sure that you're going to find a pad wear sensor anywhere on a UK-sold 1.2 HTP.

No, G12 evo is newer than G13, bizarrely.

Number of negative electrodes is of minor impact. Trade-off between slowing the erosion rate by having multiple, and shielding the spark (fewer is better). As per LLL link supplied previously, the correct Bosch item is their part number F7HER02, genuine PN 101905601F. The second one listed there as suitable for CGPA seems to be no longer available. F7HER02 F7HER02

I might be tempted to see what else is fed by the fuse that powers the oil level/temperature sensors. Can you supply the VIN to allow a build date to be found, and so the best wiring info? Not sure if a stuck closed anti-shudder valve might be consistent with the observed behaviour?

No way

Yes, in HVAC module I think, a measuring block should show you volts to motor of fan.

Have you checked the fuse?

I don't think so. Coolant level warning is another common one to appear, which might have been obscured rather than fixed.

Hello, this sounds like the wire to the starter motor solenoid has broken. Depending on which version of 1.2 engine you have, this may be visible from above if you look vertically downwards to the right of the front of the engine.

No idea, sorry, just going off wiring diagram.

Great shout @xman: the image here shows it quite clearly as just that: Rear Crankshaft Seal with Flange Germany 036103171B (skoda-parts.com)

If main, front interior light is working, it's not a fuse issue. Both fed directly from BCM. The switch, with red/white and brown wires may be the issue instead.

It should be in the position shown here, in the yellow ring Below is an image intended for other purposes originally, which I have edited with red rings to show the holes above the LEDs, one or more of which may have been closed off to mask the emissions light: You might be able to see by lifting the overlay as shown here, but more diagonally, between the fuel gauge needle and speedo needle, or you may have to carefully remeve the speedo needle to get a view of the relevant hole. .

Someone may have obscured it to help when selling it. I found a small ball of black tape above the LED in the plastic bezel within the instrument cluster some time after buying my Polo. Can't remember if I took a photo, will try to find.

Can you not just fit the broken bits of the original, with a little help from sealant to hold together?

The part number I quoted matches what's on the part number label of that one, so yep, should be correct. The number on the black bit is just for the electronic control unit; a subcomponent of the whole.

1K0 614 117 H ABS unit with control unit MK70 TEVES PR:1AC+7K0 according to partslink24

VIN will make it way easier.

Might be worth conferring by PM about the possibility of repair, depending on what price(s) you find.

If you want it to work right, match not only the 6Q1...part number exactly, but also the next line which will be SK250D2DRS on yours, or possibly SK250DDRS.

New-new, or new to you?

Try unplugging the window motor.

Sorry for slow response, partner got hold of me for a succession of "I just need you to..."s The spring does appear to be a match for yours, with red, yellow, yellow paint splodges (you should be able to check that by jacking up that corner of yours for a look). Can't read the label on the shock absorber, so can't tell you anything about that except that yours should be 6Q0413031BL, if original factory fit. That pictured strut is from a car with FS111 brakes (you can see it cast into the outer face of caliper), which yours are not, so the wheel bearing housing which everything bolts up to is different, having integrated brake carriers. Yours has a separate brake carrier part, not interchangeable. Not going to be useful to you.
