Backstory to this car - This was my parents car. It had a bad water leak and it used to overheat so they took it to a garage and they replaced the header tank as the old one had cracked. It went through loads of water even after this I think, so the tank didn't help very much! The brakes needed doing & the radio screen was playing up (about 1/3rd in the middle of the screen is just blank) and then the engine started making an awful noise so they assumed the engine was knackered especially with the water leak and they didn't want to spend any more money on it after all these problems in a short amount of time. They have downsized anyway and don't use the car very much, & just wanted to get rid of it to be honest. Would recommend Rob and Chris for any salvage, messaged them and they came straight away the next day to collect. Thanks Rob & Chris! :)

@deviantrider9309 3 года назад

Did wonder when i saw the new header tank had the system been over pressurising & caused it to split your parents didn't put a K seal or any other add in the system did they to try & stop the problem ? & its ended up masking it ,Think rob needs to put some serious miles on this before he even thinks of selling it else it could come back & bite him on the arse

Boy, I’d buy a car from you guys in a heartbeat, wish I lived nearer. I recon there must be loads of cars scraped that can be kept on the road but then there aren’t many like you two.

@samoopsd 3 года назад

From what I know, those header tanks/coolant resevoirs on these VW engines get replaced as the level sensor inside them tend to fail quite early on, and the entire tank needs to be replaced as the sensors are molded into the plastic.

@dogbite5509 3 года назад

Respect that you are keeping the car alive and giving it some well needed TLC of oil, filter and other service items. You deserve to make some money on this car. Its def worth £2K ono

@SamRichardsonImage 4 месяца назад

Had one of these for 3 years - almost the exact same spec and colour except it was the 1.4 diesel. Amazing mileage, only ever minor issues with it for the most part. Ultimately, it developed an issue with the electrics in the driver side door and it caused the alarm to go off all the time. I probably could have sorted it but I wanted something with cruise control and android auto. I do miss it sometimes though, my Fabia estate was an absolute trooper for the entire time I owned it.

I can remember when we used a long screwdriver which one end was placed against a component with the other end against your ear to diagnose the location of the noise. Any long piece of metal would do but handle end of screwdriver softer against your ear. Fantastic video yet again boy's.

@jamesward5721 Год назад

You guys have no idea how handy the UK MOT system is - here we have to book an NCT - you can be waiting weeks for a slot. If it fails, you can wait another few weeks for a re-test. It's a total pita here tbh.

Rob the A/C compressor pump seals can dry out if not used or sat for a while. Hopefully low on gas. Always run your A/C weekly even in the winter a good tip. Keeps the seals lubricated.

@howardlake6178 3 года назад

Another great video, and £1495 all day long. A customer of mine years ago was a VW dealer. I turned up, and all the signage had changed to Skoda. 2 years later, 'Skodas are way, way, better built than VWs. People never bring them back any more'. If you work in a Czech car factory, you have a higher standing than Fritz in the German factory, was the theory...

I love you guys! Straight in there to find the problem. I guessed belt and tensioner as it squealed the same as my 9-3 before the tensioner sheared off. Simple fix really. Great call doing the brakes and getting a spare wheel, service, etc. Love it. Looks ace and definitely saved from the scrappy!! Great price 😎

@JMc.D 3 года назад

It’s great to see something being saved that can be saved rather than mindlessly scrapping a car that doesn’t need to be. Tidy car, estate, has the tow bar fitted, MOT, full service, valet, new brakes and a days labour for £500. Couldn’t beat it.

@grahamepigney8565 4 месяца назад

The amount of heat, several hundreds of degrees, needed to warp a brake disk is incredible and won't happen even if the car is driven fast and badly. The most common problem is that the calipers have not been cleaned out when the pads have been changed. But easily checked using a run-out gauge.

@trevorjarvis3021 3 года назад

Appears to be an excellent buy for somebody at £1495 - full years mot, serviced correctly and new front discs and pads! With a sorted air con they should have trouble free motoring for a good while. Cracking content - just goes to show what can be achieved by a couple of switched on, decent, honest guys!! I thoroughly enjoyed that.

I know they chop and change. Manky oil is the enemy of chains. Ex took a BME (1.2 3 cyl 12V badged HTP) from 64 to 118k when something else took it. A fill of oil was 2.8 litres (5L of 10w40 Shell was about £14), filter was change from £3.

It's a shame they were about to scrap a car like that basically for the lack of maintenance. That kind of tells a story about people nowadays. This Fabia has an engine btw was not sold here in my country. After some maintenance and cleaning inside and out it just looks amazing. Good job again. Somebody will be very happy with someone else's scrap... It's just great how a little care can give a new lease of life.
