A bit of help please

Featured Replies

Morning all

It’s great that there are sites like this to offer mutually supportive advice. I have a Fabia Bohemia estate first registered in 2007. I bought it from my stepfather who had it from new. It’s been a great car since I got it in 2023.

I need a bit of help on a couple of things:

  1. After a flat battery the radio code is required to start it again and I can’t find it and step dad doesn’t recall where he kept it. How can I find out what the code is?

  2. I need a rear window wiper and Halfords don’t seem to stock them. Any advice on a decent replacement?

Thank you in advance for any help and assistance and happy driving.

Cant help you with the radio code but I ended up getting a rear wiper from the Skoda dealers for the wifes Fabia recently.It seems strange Halfords dont stock them, I found exactly the same thing

Have a look to see if there a motorfactors near you. They may well stock them as our local one had one on the shelf as someone ripped my sons off on his mk1 fabia.

As for the radio code switch ignition on and make sure radio is switched off then switch ignition off and leave for 20-30mins. Switch ignition on then radio and it should resync and start working. If it still asking for code then it may be in the radio instruction booklet or car booklet. Check its not in glove box as well. If the above doesnt work then I am afraid you may need to contact dealer it came from.
