Hello Fabia owners,

Before taking the car to the local garage and their efforts to fix it, I wanted to know what was most likely to need replacing or repairing? Or any likely causes?

 

Does it need a new thermastat? I waterpump is bringing on coolant when I start it.

 

Basically I drove it on the hottest day today idled at roadworks for 5 minutes then would not start as engine was so hot.

Waited an hour and was fine and drove for 15minutes all fine.

Thanks in advance.

So is this a 1.6 TDI CR?

How old, how many miles covered, has it had any servicing other than oil & filter changes?

Has it had the emissions fix?
