Coolant Fan Control 2: P1662 - 35-00 - Short to ground (VCDS Fault Code)
Please check the 30A blade fuse nearest to the strip fuses on the battery fuseholder. Maybe that blew for some reason since you checked the operation with the K module?

Oil again
No 0W40s are 50400 spec, but there are some that are 50200 spec. I doubt it'll make any noticeable difference at all.

Skoda PR Code / Factory Option Decoder
@johanbrandon your posts seem very robotic, do you have a Skoda, if so which?

Headlight glare.
Definitely getting worse. Lots and lots of LED replacement 'bulbs' available and lots and lots of people too selfish and/or unintelligent to know they cause problems for everyone except themselves.

VRs 1.9 MK1 07 Windows steaming up!
Water on the rubber seals at the bottom of the doorway is a giveaway that that door carrier is leaking:

Octavia 1Z: Rear Door Electronics Issues
This could be a problem with the LIN data connection which links the front right and rear right door modules. It is a thin purple/yellow wire and might be damaged at the front door hinge area instead of the rear door. Pin 5 of the black 12-way connector at front, A-pillar connector.

Questionable oil reading on a new 2021 Kamiq 1.0 TSI
The OP's photo almost certainly shows an oil pattern consistent only with not wiping and reinserting, so there's nothing laugh-worthy about @wooly4228's post.

ABS control unit removal
Sure, all good, but someone coming to this thread might not have come across the strip-fuse crack phenomenon, so I thought best to reference it.

ABS control unit removal
Compared to strip fuse cracking I think module failure must be very rare, so no-one should even contemplate blaming the module ahead of checking that fuse. See massive thread full of happy people here: 00301 - ABS Return Flow Pump (V39) - Skoda Fabia Mk I (1999-2007) - BRISKODA

Running temp dropping when heaters on. Please Help?
Me too, and I wouldn't buy the absolute bottom end of the price range either, as repeating the job would be annoying.

Help with Fabia MK1 2001- VCDS Errors
G65 error is just insufficient gas, or related to the control circuit fault, which is very likely to just be a broken wire near the starter motor. Evaporator sensor fault is the only mildly tricky one as it's awkward to reach to replace, but there is a good "how to" guide in the Fabia Guides section. Module 09 faults are odd, as they both relate to items your car won't have, suggesting coding needs looking at.

EPC and Emissions control lights clarification ?
No, I think that's just the lights self-testing. Relax.

Octavia 1Z: Rear Door Electronics Issues
I will try to look at wiring diagrams later, if I get some time. If you do find corrosion it may look something like this (different connectors on your car):

Where the hell is my glow plug relay! 1.4 BNV pd engine
Yes, except the software driving the needle motor makes it indicate 90 for a fairly wide range of real temps.

Where the hell is my glow plug relay! 1.4 BNV pd engine
Not personally looked, but driver's side right of steering wheel, I think. Not sure what trim may need removing to access. Other mk2 owners or maybe YouTube should be able to help.

Where the hell is my glow plug relay! 1.4 BNV pd engine
Fuse is one of the strip fuses above battery, 50A rated with a thick red/black wire coming from it. Right-most one as you look from standing in front of car. Relay is in position 9 of the relay panel behind dash.

Octavia 1Z: Rear Door Electronics Issues
That wetness suggests that the boots are not sealing onto the paintwork at one end or both. That's bad news because the connectors are not inherently waterproof. Examine mating face of loom connectors for corrosion when unplugged from the pillar connector.

Wipers not working
Can be difficult to view the actual contact surfaces of the relay without bending bits to get a better view, and that's not in the category of 'non-destructive'. Judging by the circuit diagram, the black/grey wire is the low speed power feed, green/yellow is high speed, and brown is earth return. The green/purple is park position feedback I think.

Wipers not working
The relay contacts may be burnt such that they make a contact, but not one that's good enough for the current required to get the motor moving. Try another relay, especially if it's an easy pluggable type.

Not sure what you mean, got a pic?

Warning lights issue
Yeah, that battery sounds like it's very end of life, unless you have a significant current drain.
