Talking Thanks to the forum

hi everybody,

just to let you know that i have managed to replace the evaporator vent sensor in my fabia elegance without removing the dashboard!!! therefore saving myself £350, which is what the skoda garage quoted me, and its only taken up two hours of my afternoon. the aircon is running sweet now, in fact so sweet its almost like siberia in my car!!
many thanks to the guys on this forum for their detail on this particular issue,
i hope other people can gain as much benefit from this forum as i have!!
keep up the good work men.
with great thanks
Mark

I hope the cuts to your hand & back strain gets better soon !

Well done !

I've done that job as well & I couldn't have managed it without this forum & in particular "Lummox" (who can apparantly do this job in 30 minutes flat ! ) who gave me invaluable instructions.

Enjoy your working air-con again.

<shameless plug>perhaps worth joining the freedom scheme for a mere 12 quid </end shameless plug>

Glad you're sorted and good job

Been a paid-up member of this site for a while now, and although the end result has cost me a fortune, it's also saved me a relative fortune

Yes, you are quite right !

I've just joined.

£12 is a small price to pay for the expertise available on here & it pales into insignificance against what you might save, this thread being a case in point !

Thanks again guys.
