Cleaning outside of Charge Cooler & Air Con Rad

Followers

Hi,

Anyone got any suggestions or advice on cleaning the front, outside of the charge cooler and Air Con Rad on a 2.0 PD 140?

After 147k its full of flies!!!

Obv I don't want to spray a power hose straight in there cos it will probs knock all the fins to hell.

Rather not have to remove them either since it looks a mission.

Compressed air maybe?

Toothpick ? LOL :P

Key not found

Hi all, recently bought a 2016 Fabia 1.2tsi with 1 key and it's the push button start, had 2 mobile locksmiths out and both have the same problem, they can cut and programme the keys so it locks and unlocks and will start the car but the new key they cut will only start the car if held right up to the button and then you get the dreaded "key not found" warning and noise,the original key works fine so I can't see that it's a car fault and I can put up with holding the spare key up to the switch a

Burnt out clutch

Alex707070 · 13 April13 Apr

Hello, can anyone help! I have a kamiq and at 55,000 my car suddenly failed, teva burning smell and no power. Was told it needed a clutch replacement and brakes replacement. £2,500. I questioned this as I’ve been driving for 34 years and never burnt out a clutch. I was forced to pay. I had raised questions about the car having a fault. Was told it was driver error. Fast forward 8 weeks and my clutch failed again - the same burning smell. Garage are unbelievably wanting £1,500 to replace again!!

Round steering wheel with DSG paddles

Binx1310 · 22 May22 May

I bought a sportline flat bottom steering wheel but it was the heated version with the view button. I knew the airbag would have a bit of a gap but I didn’t like how it looked or felt overall. So I now have that for sale if anyone is interested. I am on the hunt for a round leather steering wheel. Version with phone button not view button, but with the DSG paddles. If anyone can point me in the direction of the correct part number or even if you have one for sale please let me know!
