2023 and the article is still helping Fabia owners. 🙂

Thank you for this. No replacement part required, the catch had just fallen out.

Hi Alex
Your article is still helping people! I sorted my Fabia this morning with your excellent guide. Couldn’t have done it without it. Sometimes this detailed step-by-step is exactly what you need, not a lengthy video. Many many thanks.

Hi everybody,

thanks for all the comments! I’m glad to know this post was (and keeps being) useful/helpful!

Back then when I posted it, I would have never thought this was such a design flaw from Skoda.

Hi Alex
Although it’s been a few years since you’ve published this help guide, let me state that this has been more than helpful and that you’ve saved me £135,- which I was quoted by D. M. Keith, my local Skoda dealer with whom I service exclusively, it makes no difference to them ; they’re just after a profit.
Anyway, thank you is all I want to say, you’ve made my day.

Best wishes
Libor
