If so there's a cat forming part of the exhaust manifold, then another downstream of the flexi joint. I was referring to the first of those, which is close to things like the radiator fan/shroud and engine cover, lots of nearby plastic. See if there's any sign of melting or scorching to those areas.

There are two. What's your engine code, BKY?

The burning smell may be to do with the manicat overheating due to unburnt fuel from the misfiring?

Sorry, wasn't trying to alarm you with reference to compression, it's just a quick and easy thing to eliminate if you have a tester. If you get a fault code for the same cylinder, consider moving that fuel injector to a different cylinder to see if the fault moves with it.

Read the fault codes again, as a first step. Do you own a compression tester?

Rear shock change.
Items 10, 11 here https://skoda.7zap.com/en/cz/fabia/fab/2003-225/4/411-411010/ I use this ebay seller quite a bit https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Genuine-VW-Audi-N90954802-Front-Hub-Strut-Pinch-Bolt-Nut-Kit-Golf-Passat-A3-TT/183142374830?epid=12022526006&hash=item2aa422ddae:g:84MAAOSw4LJbp4-k

Low end of "Normal" for engine oil temp
No, see here: https://www.opieoils.co.uk/t-multi-grade-car-engine-oils-explained.aspx 100°C is the point at which the right-hand number is measured. "Winter" and "summer" would be too vague.

Low end of "Normal" for engine oil temp
Cheers for the input. Looking at the numbers on the graphs for the lower viscosity oils, it does appear that @brettikivi is about right.

No worries Mike.

Reverse light Live and Earth
Black/blue wire is feed from switch, brown is earth.

Low end of "Normal" for engine oil temp
A continuum, surely. @weasley would probably be my go-to person for knowing where to find such info.

Living With A Sportline Plus 272 Hatch
For the diesel, consider creating an account on either fuelly (https://www.fuelly.com/) or spritmonitor (https://www.spritmonitor.de/en/) to keep an online record of all your mpg data. Using brim-to-brim numbers would make it much more 'real' than the day-to-day observations of trip consumption figures. At least with fuelly, and probably with the other one, they do a little signature thing so the current average is constantly displayed with every post you make. For someone so interested in this parameter, it would make sense to do this, I think.

Reversing light or lights
I'd predict that the symmetrically positioned light on the offside is the rear fog? In which case just one.

2019 citgo potenetial leak
You don't seem to be wrong according to ETKA. Electromechanical power steering I see diagrams for. Electro-hydraulic I don't. e.g. here: https://skoda.7zap.com/en/cz/citigo/cit/2013-727/4/

Revs die when idling after a while of driving
I would start here: And then inspect the brake servo vacuum hose carefully.

If you own a soldering iron, I would suggest re-flowing the solder joints of all pins of both connectors on the instrument cluster circuit board.- 15 years - seatbelt change?
I'd be really, really surprised.- Can i use 5w 40 (no dpf)
I shouldn't think there are many people who've tried it, and even fewer who could say for certain what would've happened differently if they hadn't. Why not just try it and see if it has any effect on oil usage rate? If it doesn't, no point in continuing, if it does you'll have some data to work with in your decision about the next oil change.- LEAK!! passenger footwell is soaked
What did I do?- Can i use 5w 40 (no dpf)
I would suggest one that meets 505 01; and please let us know how it goes. - Dashboard warning lights
