So guys please tell me,

Whats the first thing to do to your new Fabia. (apart from run it in)

Mods

Checks

Anything that needs to be tweeked.

Things dealer forgot.

And, has anyone had the ECU re-maped?

On my last car I polished it with Autoglym professional. Did it give me any more value on trade in by Toyota.... no.

But I will do the same with the Fab.

Our Monte after getting her home has had Nightbreaker Plus headlight bulbs fitted, Comma wax seal applied to the outside of the spare wheel well; for some strange reason Skoda forget to protect this area on higher spec models and the rear drums had a coat of VHT paint, although the matt black finish is not keeping the rust at bay, so going to try gloss instead.

For winter the cars also lost the 17" rims and is running on Skoda 15" 'line' alloys and 195/55 winter tyres; might prove handy looking at the forecast. Oh and further applied Autoglym Lifeshine. Purchased the kit from flee bay; think a better job was done than past experience paying the dealer to carry out this treatment.

Otherwise the MC will remain stock, not into mapping etc. myself.
