Ues oem oils gearbox oil part number is G055 512 A2 takes 1.8L The mechatronics oil part number is G 004 000 M2 takes 1L The drain plugs are on the bottom of the gearbox m14 for the gearbox one and m6 for the mechatronics one i think can't remember Need to remove the battery and air box and dust cap at the back of the gearbox by the selector unit and the one by the starter motor for the mechatronics there is a fill plug for the mechagronics but you will need to remove the starter motor to access it how I change my oil I got a one liter bottle with a screw cap and a long hose and filled it that way it's not a hard job but you'll need to take a couple hours to do it right but oils a bit slow going in the gearbox and the mechatronics unit

The side lights in the headlights on the fab Rs don't work as DRL are the side lights they dim when you turn on the side lights

Yes definitely wrong shock absorber is too far into the Hub the bolt is meant to go through the hole then pinch the Hub to the shock absorber and they're used Old Bolt which is a no-no and it's a stretch Bolt quite highly torqued to 60nm and then angle-tighten 90° i would take it back get them to fit a new shock absorber and bolt and do the job correctly

you've got two real options a repair kit were you get the plug and wiring or a new wiring loom from skoda i went for new wiring loom on both doors as mine had been repaired before two to three times to repair the wiring with the repair kit you solar the new wiring to the old and heat shrink the repair and test

For a OEM turbo actuator £300 is not to bad as for recommend suppliers i've always used skoda-parts.com for OEM parts as there cheaper then dealer most of the time but you got to walt 10 or so days for delivery. Euro car parts are not to bad on most things and there ebay or go to the original part maker usually they are cheaper then skoda

When I did both my front door wiring looms on my fab MK2 I got new ones from my dealer £190 with VAT for both O/S & N/S looms not to bad really. There was some wiring looms kit's in eBay but they looked a bit cheap to me
-
Only place I found one for my fabia MK2 vRS was dealer at £390
-
The fuses you want are 57/58 both 15A in fuse box driver side under steering wheel.But it more likely to be the new headlight switch as they come with front and rear fog lights and the vRS as only rear fogs on the switch remove the new switch and put the old back and see if the headlights works

The downpipe and cat is in one and the only place I could find one was Skoda dealer and it's not cheap £1.250 +vat
