Can anyone tell me why the Skoda Fabia 1.4. 8 valve engine was discontinued?

I could be wrong but i think it was the same old engine that was in the Favorit and then the Felicia.My wife had a felicia for 7 yrs with next to nothing wrong with it. I think the engine was just a bit basic and the 3 cylinder 12v 1.2 ( which is a vw ) engine replaced it. My wife now has a fabia with the 1.2 and it is a really good engine so far.

Yes, I think the 1.4 8v was the last remaining Skoda designed unit. VAG have now standardised engines across their ranges.

Not only that, but basically the same engine was used for Donkey's years before then in the old rear engined Skodas, too.

In short, it was the Czech A-Series.
