Best to check for signs of water ingress from the rear doors, check the carpet in the rear for dampness.
Check that no warning lights show on the dashboard, PAS can be a problem with these cars.

I have a new Fabia with the 1.4 TDI engine, remarkable engine for a 3 cyclinder diesel but no where near as economical as claimed.
