@sepulchrave  You have got it totally wrong about me and Fabia Mk2 vRS.  they never cost me a penny, i made money on them.

I do body work / paint and mechanics mechanic and anything covered by warranty would go to a Dealership. 

I do not pay for techs or mechanics sorting cars bought to sell, i barter my time for theirs.

 

I will listen to someone saying the same as Skoda / VW group and technicians said if they can see the bigger picture.

There are none as blind as those that will not see.

 

The thing is i bought and sold twinchargers, ones that were rejects because oil users or because they were not getting fixed.

Sold them to people i know and know how they ran when fixed, and the fixes were easy as the faults were easily identified and nothing major.

  I know where the cars are i bought and only one is no longer on the road as written off.

 

Sorry if i can not be bothered listening to someone that can not see the actual engineering faults that VW designed and engine issues and why the first editions were discontinued and then the 2nd version.

There are original cars around with the original engines and issue free, it is simple to know what can save a CAVE or CTHE engine from having faults, issues or failures.

If VW Group had bothered actually getting the fundamental faults right it would have been 'Simply Clever'.

An entrepreneur, that explains everything.

 

I myself am not, I rely on others to do that bit, I have no interest other than general technical considerations.
