Do I need new lower control arms - with dealer video?
When's it due an MOT?
-
Battery died, replaced battery now power steering light wonโt remove.
Are you sure you're looking at the correct control unit? Steering Assist (VCDS module 44 under chassis tab, for cross-reference) rather than steering wheel, maybe? If there is no real fault it will almost certainly clear itself after a few drive cycles though.

Spark Plugs - 1.5TSI Karoq
Part number and manufacturer part number shown as second item 4 here, I think. Check that your engine code is a match to DADA. https://www.lllparts.co.uk/catalogs/skoda/CZ/KAR/834/9/905/905000

Newbie Oil Question
You can probably just stick a phone under there at arms length and take a 'selfie' of the drain plug, with it on the ground. Certainly if one side/ two wheels are up on a kerb.

Sound deadening project
@TheWanderer I doubt that the clips will come with it, but they seem pleasingly cheap at 38p + VAT each, 8E0863727A. 10 reqd allegedly.

is there a hose connecting brake servo and intake manifold on the 2.0tsi vrs?
Yep; best idea if they caused it, they fix it. Please let us know what is found.

ยฃ20.59 + VAT, so ยฃ24.71 in your hand at Skoda dealers.

Follow the servo hose back from the servo, looking for any unconnected bits...

Selling a car and Freedom Lite...
No idea, sorry. Doesn't ring a bell though. I tend to think, put the price you'd absolutely dream of getting, then edit/bring it down a notch every few days until you start to get any sniffs of interest.

Yes, see list here that includes "Classified adverts" https://www.briskoda.net/forums/subscriptions/

Ebay sellers misinform, unfortunately.

Fabia MK1 6y2 window motor equivalent?
Any of these modules where 3rd and 9th digit of part number are different is a passenger side module and not functionally interchangeable.

Comfort module isn't involved. Message me about repair and exchange options if you like. ๐ See link in signature at bottom of post if viewing on a computer

Is my battery needing replaced
Doesn't sound right to me. Probably a mechanic unfamiliar with the variable output voltages of the alternator on these cars.

Combi high level brake light part number
Pretty sure it's different between hatch and combi Check here (probably in electrical section once you've picked year). https://www.lllparts.co.uk/catalogs/skoda/CZ/FAB

ECU light.
That was no use whatsoever then.
-
ECU light.
Well done. Fingers crossed.
-
ECU light.
That's probably a full shutdown of a cylinder (or more), to prevent unburnt fuel causing trouble with emissions kit downstream. Pass all this info to Skoda when you do speak to them, it might mean the car should be uplifted there rather than driven there. How far away is dealership?
-
ECU light.
Well played! You can probably take it to another dealer if they come back with "Just after Christmas" or some such helpfulness...
-
ECU light.
Yep, DAD is the three letter version of your engine code, on the bottom row. The fourth letter usually is a power variant so A for lowest power of that code, B for next one up, etc. Handily, that's a match for the diagram I mentioned above, so confirms individual coilpacks. It seems very unlikely to me that two of those could have failed simultaneously, so I'd suspect something probably unrelated to ignition. Please update us with what Skoda find.
-
ECU light.
Nope, but I could look it up from that.

ECU light.
That doesn't look like an engine code. There may be a sticker on the cambelt top cover with engine number on, as well as it being on the V5c. I think it will be three or four letters starting with a D. Just helps me maybe find a wiring diagram, which would answer the question about the coilpacks. The only 1.5 diagram I've found so far, for DADA and DPCA codes fitted to Superbs in 2019 suggests individual coilpacks.
