Hi,

I've just purchased a Skoda Fabia VRS SE. Hopefully it's a good one, it's passed the first test of making it home with no issues.

I was recommended this forum over on Pistonheads, there seems to be a lot of good advise on here.

I'll get some pics up soon.

2 year service + brake fluid + Aircon service

Bryfly · 2 June2 Jun

My dealer just emailed me to make booking for it's 2 year service and said I should change brake fluid and have Aircon serviced at the same time, while I understand the brake fluid change, (something years ago we never did at 2 years) im not sure the Aircon needs doing. What's owners views on having these done, car is only on 6k miles and Aircon works great, is it just to get more money out of owners?

'Component protection enabled' after Columbus MIB2 firmware update

Dave77 · 12 July, 20232 yr

Hi all, I've just updated my MIB2 Columbus from MHI2_ER_SKG11_K3330 to MHI2_ER_SKG11_K3343. The installation completed okay and shows the new version installed but it seems to have enabled component protection. Now the unit has had component protection disabled and SmartLink (AA) enabled before, my car is a 2014 Octavia so originally had a MIB1 in it. Would a firmware update have reset those?

Removing the glove compartment

AMartinD · 31 August, 20169 yr

Hi folks, me again... Does anyone know if it's possible to remove the hinged moving section of the glove compartment from its outer enclosure without having to remove the entire glove compartment assembly from the dash? Something has 'escaped' over the back of the glove compartment and is trapped between the movable section and the outer enclosure with the result that it's preventing the glove compartment from opening fully, so I want to extricate the offending object before anything get

Spurious Emergency Stops

iamdrew · 4 February4 Feb

I owned a 2017 Superb Mk III and recently swapped to a Mk IV and love the car apart from one very dangerous fault. Occasionally, the car decides I’m about to hit something and slams on the brakes - so hard, that you think you have hit something! It has happened several times whilst manoeuvering at low speed in reverse which is somewhat disquieting. But it has also recently done it whilst driving forwards - in no way on any occasion was there a risk of collision with either stationary or mobile

Generally, i dont like to be one of those people to open up another topic that has been exhausted time and time again, but after extensive research, i really am struggling to find a forum response that matches fully with my issue. I brought my 1.2 tsi 2016 CJZD Rapid earlier this year. As soon as I picked up the car, i noticed the issue, but the garage i purchased it from had wiped their hands clean. Since then, i have been trying to research and diagnose the issue without throwing the parts c
