Hello all fellow Skoda owners, new member here. 48yo male living in Hampshire UK. I've recently bought my first Skoda a 19 plate Octavia Hatch 2.0tsi SE L DSG in silver. Unfortunately it was a bit of a distress purchase as my previous car (Golf GTI mk5) was written off in an accident so I'm not new to the VAG world just the Skoda part of it!

Anyway I've a few questions that I'll try to post in the correct place.

Safe driving, thanks.

Hi, I've just purchased an SE L EXECUTIVE TDI DSG estate in white. Thrilled to bits with it. Looking forward to wax polishing it. This forum seems to be very friendly and helpful. I found it trying to figure out why the torch in the boot won't light up. Cheers.

Motecarlo, 1.2TSI 105hp 2014 Timing chain tensioner failed

AF185 · 17 hours ago17 hr

Hi, My tensioner failed at low revs and speed, the car juddered and stalled. It restarted and I drove home about a mile steadily. It seemed to drive normally if a little noisy. Next day it would start but not run. The check engine light was on. Pretty sure the Timing jumped a tooth. Q. do the valves always hit the pistons? do the valves always bend? Might I get away with an new tensioner and re-time? TIA

Fabia- Infotaintment Issues

smudge18 · 23 February23 Feb

I have my Fabia from new 12 months and have always had intermittant issues with the infotainment screen. Usually the touch screen doesn't work, or you press any button and it selects the Radio. Also, it's like it's locked so I can't answer or make calls, look at Google Maps ( I use Android Auto) I have been to the Main Dealer 5 times, have had the touchscreen replaced and it is still having issues. Apparently a part is on order from Germany which should have been here back end of last year and

Fabia Fault Codes (Just purchased car)

joeninho · 15 hours ago15 hr

Hi guys, Just looking for a few opinions here. Bought my wife a 2012 Mk2 Fabia (1.2 Greenline TDI CR CFWA) a couple of weeks ago from a reputable small garage. MIL appeared after about 8-9 days. Comes on for hours then off again. Rinse and repeat. It is throwing 3 codes: P2016 - Intake Manifold Position Sensor (Circuit low) P2015 - Intake Manifold Position Sensor (Range performance) P0672 - Cylinder 2 Glow Plug Circuit I saw that you can use a bracket to limit the actuator movement on the
