It's almost definately linked, you probably need a new brake light switch....very common Fabia and Octavia fault. I've seen the EPC light come on even if 2 of the brake light bulbs have blown.

Thanks Daverapid, you were 100% correct, the culprit was the brake switch, the Fabi is now back to normal, having also been serviced she now runs incredibly smooth, also changed the spark plugs which did improve the car's peformance.
