Prospective new Fabia owner

Followers

26 July, 201114 yr

Hey all! I'm Simon, I'm 36 and from Norfolk UK. I'm thinking of trading in my old BMW 318ti Compact for a Fabia. I'm gonna go test drive one this afternoon...it's a 54 reg 1.4 16v Ambiente, 33,000 miles, gun metal grey, full skoda service history and 2 previous owners. It's up for £3495 which, considering the mileage, I think is a reasonable price...although there are 1 or 2 parking scuffs on the body work and it needs taxing, so there's room for bargaining. Are there any issues I should be looking for as I don't know a great deal about the Fabia.

Cheers people!

Sagittarius 19" alloy cover loose and fell or theft?

DGAsp · 18 hours ago18 hr

Hi. Just see that my 2023 skoda sportline karoq 19 inch wheels 19 inch. Sagittarius I believe? One of the covers is missing. Unsure if has been missing long and wanted your take on whether it has been stolen or has just fell off due to bad clips or design flaws. See photo of good wheel and the trim removed. UK right hand drive. Passenger rear. I think this is the missing piece? https://www.skoda-parts.com/spare-part/57a601169cfl8-wheel-cover-skoda-45385.html Not the cheapest. And a quite b

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

Oil leak
Skoda Octavia Mk2 (2004 - 2013)

Oil leak

beezera10 · 1 hour ago1 hr

2008 Octy 1.9Tdi PD 1Z5 BXE oil leak. I've removed the plastic pan, cleaned everything up and inspected for wet areas. The leak doesn't appear to come from the rear or bottom of the engine, or from the left hand side of the engine (fuel filter side). The tandem pump at the top doesn't appear to be wet. The leak appears to be higher up the engine and just below the oil filter housing where it does seem quite wet. The oil filter housing isn't leaking (from the top, at least). I know how diff

Intermittent front assist

Intermittent front assist

Stevesuperb2020 · Thursday at 18:352 days

Front assist on my 2020 dsg sel superb works sometimes. I've cleaned the sensor area and the top of the windscreen as I believe there is a camera that the front assist uses. Means auto cruise control won't work. Any ideas?

Digital Clock and Dashboard Clock

Rich P · 26 October, 202526 Oct

Hi. I've just had the touchscreen replaced and happy to say everything is all working again with the exception of the clock which is stuck at 12:00. The second hand is still working though. The time on the dashboard behind the steering wheel is working fine and can be adjusted. Can anyone please advise me ho to adjust the clock on the touchscreen when it is in standby mode? Many thanks.
