I've got a fabia 1.9tdi. Just wondering what would sound better and if there is any performance differences to either decatting or doing a back box delete? Thanks

No performance benefits at all, I've no objection to performing a mufflerectomy to make your tractor louder but decatting is irresponsible because you're increasing emissions needlessly.

Syphon fuel or not?

Ben12345 · Thursday at 23:081 day

Hi, I have a 2004 1.9 AWX TDI Last October I parked it up as since getting it (1 owner service history) it has had timing kit and new turbo and then the dmf and gearbox needed fixing I was unsure if I was going to keep it but I think I might now as only 105k. Question is should I syphon the fuel (1/4 tank) been sat since October or should I add biocide and top up? Whats the risk and how realistic is it of causing damage if I just run it on the diesel thats in there and do nothing to it? @r

Not sure if I might contemplate selling this at a later date ( what is it worth I'm thinking when closer to mint at least £8K right>), but for now at least offers me one means to travel around when I get around to doing my vRS clutch which I'm loathed to use for now as it feels like its more urgent for replacement Under dads ownership he claimed this car is perfect but its not mint mint unfortunately his rose tints must have been on (buts its a decent spec with very low miles for year I men

What oil spec? 2021 1.5 TSI

gsf600y · 7 hours ago7 hr

Struggling to find anywhere exactly what oil type my engine should be using. The owner manual says "ask a specialist garage for the correct engine oil", which is bizarre - can't the manufacturer of the vehicle just tell me! On a previous with a dealer, they put in "Edge Prof LL IV 0W-20". I've just had a service via the RAC today, and they gave me the remaining oil in the tub, and I've just noticed it's "0W-30" and also says "VW 504.00/507.00" specification.

Squeaky windows

EmersonB · 20 June20 Jun

Hi all. About a month ago a picked up my first car, a 2016 Fabia. The dealership noted 'applied lubricant front window mechanism' Since driving it the past month, the window was become very squeaky! I've applied silicone spray WD40 today but no fix. Any other thoughts? The noise is unbearable 20260620_184523(1)_1_1.mp4

Aftermarket radio microphone

Lou27 · 7 May7 May

Hi everyone, I have browsed this forum frequently in the recent weeks to research for my new radio. I am confident in installing it and also a DAB window antenia. I was wondering if anyone has installed a microphone with their radio (for bluetooth calls) and how they did it. My radio came with a microphone included. Thanks all.
