Window motor repair service
Hello @BeyondEvil, no I'm afraid I haven't got one of those. The only left hand drive motor module I have is driver's side for a Roomster with all four windows electric. 6Y2959802A. I would say that it is rather rare for the passenger side modules to give trouble; have you checked its fuse and wiring at A-pillar bellows to either/both front doors. I can assist with some voltage and continuity tests if you have a multimeter, this can be just as effective as visual inspection of the wiring. Is the passenger side door lock working normally/fully? PM me if you like, particularly if you think you might like to try to sell my Roomster module locally for a big cut. 🙂

Reinstalling driveshaft flange — how to compress spring?

Reinstalling driveshaft flange — how to compress spring?
I seem to remember doing it by piecing together enough extensions to be able to do from outside wheel arch by pushing on the tool in the screw head?

Fabia MK1 door lock barrels
@Bjohn2544 Just take key and VIN to a Skoda Dealer Parts desk and they'll be able to order a matching barrel for you.

Window lifter passenger side
Yep, there's a bit missing but I have no idea what it might be called, 'beige coggy bit'? I could sell/post one to you, but every motor module of this era in every Polo/Fabia in every scrappie will have one.

Hola from the Canary Islands
Nice, particularly like the last pic. Happy dog! 😁 Having said that, the other pics are pretty nice, good combo of beautiful scenery and car.

Fuel filter intervals
If you can't see it under the car near the fuel tank it's probably a combined pump/filter unit in the tank. Unless you're doing huge annual milage just forget about it.

Thermostat issue?
Check with VCDS or similarly capable interrogator what the temperature seen by engine ECU really is. Might be that someone has had gauge needles off and mispositioned on replacement. Easily done. Oil temp readout may give some clues if available and VCDS isn't; though it will not be directly equivalent.

Power Steering Issue
Bolt should be 61mm long, bet someone put a 65mm gearbox to block bolt in by mistake while doing a clutch change. Hacksaw?

Power Steering Issue
Is that damage from a too-long dogbone rear bolt? Is that the bottom side? Can't quite work out orientation.

Disc size
232mm according to Skoda, but I doubt the difference is meaningful. LLLParts

Karoq cam belt change - start saving now !
You clearly failed to use the link I provided to actually look at the post @DBSurrey meant. The one where there's a table of intervals in Skoda's own info, with a - (dash) against the interval for petrol 1.5s in non-dusty countries, meaning no interval specified.

MK1 Fabia 1.2 Ambiente Rough Idle
Ideally you'd swap the fuel injector from cylinder 3 with one of the others to see if the fault follows it, but I'd be tempted to go straight to a compression test if you have a tester.

Nearside sidelights not working
Measure the voltage across battery terminals with engine running. Edit: and get an assistant to rev the engine while you're measuring to see if it varies with rpm (shouldn't much at all). Sometimes if the voltage regulator on the alternator goes faulty you get higher than permissible voltage. This tends to kill bulbs very fast.

Clutch change on 1.4 16V
It's not so much getting it past the subframe as clearing the back corner of the engine. More critical on the way back in than the way out, to be honest, when you're trying not to injure the fingers of your new clutch with the end of the input shaft as you try to line everything up. There's a steel gasket between the block and bellhousing that tends to catch the drive flange as you try to wriggle the gearbox in or out, part 26 here LLLParts

Which fuse for handbrake warning signal... ?
There isn't such a fuse. The switch wires direct to pin 21 of the 32-way connector at the instrument cluster, the other side going to earth/chassis. You should be able to simulate the handbrake being off by either shorting these wires together or just leaving the connector unplugged from the switch.
