Fabia vRS newbie

16 July, 20169 yr

Hi,

I've just bought a 63 plate Fabia vRS in Green with only 18k miles. I've found these forums really useful in making the choice so I hope you've all helped me pick the right car! Very impressed with the test drive, pick it up Friday!

Only thing I'd like to change for now is the head unit for sat nav / dab. I'm sure I'll find many useful suggestions in the fabia forum.

2013 Fabia 1.6 Diesel TDI - I can't find my oil filter or oil pressure switch to replace them!

2013 Fabia 1.6 Diesel TDI - I can't find my oil filter or oil pressure switch to replace them!

FenrirKin · Wednesday at 23:441 day

What it says on the tin, really; recently my oil warning light came on, flashed a few times, made a really loud intermittent beeping sound, and then turned off again. This happened several times during a journey, but actually stopped after a little while. I checked the oil level, and its fine, so I reckon it's an issue with the oil pressure sensor/switch (I did get an OBD tool, but that came up as no error codes, so I'm really in the dark here). I have a new filter (while I'm down there, I may a

First time starting a project thread, bear with me... Heard about this Roomster not too far from me that might be heading for a scrapyard, and decided to try to acquire it. That went well and it came to my place this last weekend. Early 2012, 1.2 TSI, 5sp manual, 158k miles on the clock. This is it, just after being washed. Paintwork is far from pristine, but that's not something I care much about. I'd looked up the spec via the reg plate before seeing pics of the car, so there were one or t

Scala SE L 2024 Infotainment unit updates

NigelR99 · Tuesday at 13:562 days

For the past few weeks my Skoda Scala Infotainment unit has been prompting me to do updates. Almost everyday I get the prompt to do an update. I only get the one prompt in a day. I believe the procedure is to park, accept the update, turn off the ignition, exit the car and lock it. I think some updates only apply when you next start the car. Searching the web suggested several different ways to get the updates to "Action" A couple of days ago I discovered that notifications may show what is goin

Amundsen MIB1 Firmware update finally completed - MSTD_EU_SK_P6230 MU0490

vRSAnt · 5 May, 20251 yr

I used a copy of this MSTD_EU_SK_P6230 MU0490 if anyone else needs, the site I think I had it from was mibsolution.one is currently down though. I was wary of the copy I had and passage of time, but it worked fine installed, I just have to clear the fault code ( have odbeleven but pro ran out and doesn't cover the adaption by looks of it) Excuse the state of my interior I don't use the car that much and could use a vaccuum.
