How'ya Folks,

I'm Niall i'm 27 and I live just on the outskirts of Belfast.

Joined here last week the day after I purchased my 2004 vRS Fabia. Must say the Forum is a fantastic resource!

Absolutely loving the Fabia at the moment, I sold my 06 Focus ST in order to free up some cash and pick up a well priced oil burner to reduce my costs.

So far totally loving the car, it has a remap and poly bushed at the front end with decent tires handles very well and is super chuckable, I really couldn't have hoped for better! I had a Clio 182 before the ST so I know all about chuckable hatches!

It's silver and standard looking so I'm sure you can imagine that ok.

I have a few plans for it, being 17" wheels, coilovers/lowering springs and a 312mm brake upgrade to match the OH's Cupra Ibiza TDi.

I intend to stick around for a while so I'm sure you'll see me lurking about!

keyfob misbehaving seriously

somean49 · 12 hours ago12 hr

Octy 2 1.4TSI ESTATE CAXA Quite uncertain where to enter this question. The keyfob#1 has started to cause serious problems with the car alarm system. So far keyfob#2 is working with no problem. Car alarm starting randomly and only disconnecting the battery helped. Yesterday the alarm kept sounding/flashing even when the engine was running - undrivable. Is there a home cure whereby I can remap/reset the key fob? My very helpful auto sparks is unable to help

Skoda Felicia rear light, I saw something strange

D.FYLAKTOS · 18 April18 Apr

One of the scourges of Greek roads are abandoned motorcycles. Some they have suffered major damage and are not being repaired, some because owners have abandoned them because they no longer want them, other they are stolen, etc. The process to be removed from the from the State takes from 3 months to 3 years. All of that time this motorcycle it pollutes the environment and also takes up parking space. You can't park your car because such an abandoned bicycle is standing there often rotting and s

Real world views and query

Twen · 15 minutes ago15 min

Hi I am thinking of getting a Elrok as our first ev replacing or Karoo. Looking at the edition model 85. I wondered if there were any real world views from owner about their experience especially if the first ev owned. Secondly I have been offered an 82kw Elrok from a dealer in stock but another dealer has 84KW available in the next month or so from another. This confused me slightly as these numbers seem to be used interchangeably can anyone confirm provide any guidance/advice on the best opt

Door Umbrella

Johngerard · Wednesday at 14:284 days

Neigbour with a Fabia Mk4 called me recently, his drivers door and the rear (right) passenger doors were partly open with what looked like a stainless steel rod jamming the two doors in their partly open/closed positions, to make a long story short, it was the door umbrella that apparently had shot out somehow or other and jammed the two doors, he had partially opened the back door to let his dog out I think and had let his own door partially open, or something like that. The car was still unde

Infotainment system switches itself on

petersu · 20 May, 20242 yr

Hi, It happened twice now that I walked past my parked and locked Mk IV Octavia and I noticed that the infotainment system was on and the radio playing. Anyone had this before? Both times it was on a sunny day, so quite warm inside the car. Is there any way so that the infotainment system can only be switched on with a key present? Car is from Sep 2020 with 1941 software version. Thanks, Peter
