Have. Wing mirror indicator to replace on a 2015 fabia for a family friend, looks like a car has clipped it and damaged some of the mirror surround aswell. Ilanyone done this job before and able to help with a how to, or is there any known guides online? Any helps appreciated, cheers

hi guys, ive been asked to look as at friends 04 fabia passenger side front window.. it doesnt work, looks like someone has tryed to jam somehting in place to keep window up but its now sitting half way down is this a commn fault, any ideas on whats needed to fix? cheers

Looking for a fell set of speakers of the mrs fabia,at the moment theres only one fitted to the front so looking for 2 front/2 rear decent qualtiy speaks at a fair price..If no ones got any,can anyone recommend a good place to order some?

kept searching forums for a while and finaly found a post about it,went out swaped the yellow and red and its working..just need some speakers now lol

haha.any idea if a sony cdx-m600r would plug stright in?

Is there any diy method to remove the radio cassette player from the fabia? I dont have any keys at the moment and wondered if anything else could be used?

dont know about that,but i was getting vaux oil from there for my xe alot cheaper than the dealers,was happy with that was the only oil that seemed to shut the tappets up lol i know some vaux sites get discount now from vauxhall,might be worth setting on something with skoda for members

i phoned my local motor factors gave them the price for the part number http://www.vwspares.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=678 they have it in stock but want £20,nuts how much the price varies

i fiited the thermostat and sensor that came with it,that fixed the problem before now it returned, heres what i got before http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/c/Skoda_Fabia_1.4_2003/p/car-parts/car-cooling-parts-and-car-heating/cooling/car-thermostat/?209780020&1&f0a6d258a0ffdeda238f5b7153cac5220221e9ee&000325

its for a coolant temp sesnor,just tryed vwspares £7 compared to £39 dealer,guy there reckons part is better than one from euro..what do yous reckon? softscoop got a link for TPS or GSF?

wondering if anyone knows of any cheaper places to order gen parts than from a dealer?when i used to own vauxhalls theres a place called autovaux that used to sell gen parts cheaper than vauxhall,surly there gotta be something about for skoda?

i guess id be better just buying the whole thermostat unit like i did from euro? edit:just foned chathams in edinburgh,£39 for the sensor lol

ok gen part it is then,thanks for help now for the daft question,why are they called vag cars,its to do with vw?the engine in the 03 fabia is still a skoda engine,the last of?

no problem,wish i done that the first time...would be kool if members could get a discount on gen parts to...

any idea how much a gen part will cost?

temp gauge isnt working,tryed vcds and its reports coolAnt sensor again as fault...sure it was a part recommend on here from euro,i guess you get what you pay for with pattern parts

I replaced the coolent sensor/thermostat not long ago on the 1.4 fabia classic,now its gone again...any reason why it would feck up so quick?It was a pattern part euro,reckon it could be that?

i had been concerned about the HG before,i have since changed the thermostat,new oil/filter gave the coolent system a good flush as it was a mess.for a while there was no gunk and i thought problem solved,however the gunk has returned along with the fabia runing poor (more on start up),it has also lost alittle water.its only being used at the moment to get to work,10 mile there and 10 mile back.it isnt overheating and there isnt white smoke ****ing out it

i changed the thermostat a while back hoping that with a service would stop the gunk build up as the fabia hadnt been serviced right by previous owners...went out today and had a look...i guess thats it now..still to decide what next move will be,the current engine will needa timing chain kit as it rattles like fook and now headgasket might be cheaper picking up another engine and replacing myself.

i followed your guide and used the same stuff from euro car parts,though my coolent bottle didnt clean up as well as yours lol.cheers

did you add the cleaner additive to the old coolent before flushing,if so long was it left in the coolent?

lol i phoned up and the guy reckoned i dont need a gasket..reckoned the thermostat in link will be good enough

I guess for the complete thermostat you dont need to buy the above gaskets?quick reply would be helpfull thanks

there are 2 gaskets for this,will anyone of the two do? http://www.eurocarparts.com/thermostat-housings-gasket

this with a gasket should be good enough right? http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/c/Skoda_Fabia_1.4_2003/p/car-parts/car-cooling-parts-and-car-heating/cooling/car-thermostat/?209780020&1&f0a6d258a0ffdeda238f5b7153cac5220221e9ee&000325
