I would really value your experience and knowledge. I bought an android head unit to upgrade the Swing radio in my wife's Fabia. The head unit I bought was rubbish and didn't even turn on. I immediately put the original radio back in exactly as it was. Now the battery drains. I have taken the radio out all together until I can figure it out. Has anyone any ideas what might the problem?

CD autochanger fault

Slash112000 · 4 minutes ago4 min

Hi all, I noticed a few forums posted over a decade ago, but unfortunately didn't seem to relate. I've got an issue where the cd auto changer had a fault. I pressed the eject button which spat the magazine out. I checked over the cds and everything seemed fine. After reseating the mag, the stereo no longer recognises the magazine, and says "no magazine". Since then I've tried to eject the mag, but had no luck. Has anyone had any issues with this? I removed the autochanger in the idea of fitt

Thoughts on buying a 2007 2.0 PD TDI (auto) Octavia estate?

smokeyjon · Wednesday at 21:091 day

Hi. I know there's a 'considering buying' forum but this is about an oldie so I thought this may be a better place to post...(a query for the long committed fans?)? I already have a 2005 Octavia Estate (1.9TDI PD105) and it is by a country mile the BEST car I have EVER owned. I bought it in 2013 for <£2.5k and apart from needing to do the clutch straight away it hasn't needed much over the 80k miles I've done in it since. However it is close to 180k miles now, the clutch is juddering and

Rear Door/Window Chrome Trim

Djang0 · 29 May29 May

Afternoon all, First time poster (long time lurker!) I have a 2016 Skoda Superb L&K 2.0TSI and the rear chrome trim on the to of the passenger door/window has decided to fly away. I noticed last week that it had become a bit loose but I pushed it back on. It stuck firm to the touch and wasn't an issue until today. I think the correct part is 3V5839643F JV1 but was hoping someone could kindly confirm it? I noticed a few older threads with a similar issue but I couldn't see a part number
