Geez I heard you had trolls but SERIOUSLY looks like half the comments are from clueless highschool students. "I think it's a diesel because the oil is black and I can't see the coil packs". Yeah. Never seen an oil change yet WITHOUT black oil. And you don't always see the coil over plug type coils because they're usually under a cover.

Remember, remove the filler cap first, or a vacuum air lock will develop inside the engine as it drains, retaining some if the dirty oil inside.
@dogbite55094 жыл бұрын
When the old engine oil has reached the point of dripping, its worth flushing some new engine oil through by adding it to the oil filler opening, to completely get rid of the old stuff and put the sump bolt in when this new oil is just dripping.

Personal Suggestion !! VW Audi group car owners should contact there local TPS store for any VAG car parts. Specially service kit and manufacture recommended Quantum long life fully synthetic engine oils. In price comparison with GSF car parts or Euro-carParts they’re only few pounds extra as it’s always worth spending little extra for OEM parts and peace of mind.

Except all the aftermarket parts for all these European cars have better quality plastic than the OEM. What I have seen from aftermarket oil filters I fully agree though.
@JamesAllen3006 жыл бұрын
If you need to know how much oil you need for the car, Euro car parts put the amount in the fitment details. I have never seen this before, but the reg number for the Skoda and the 5w 30 shell oil came back with the following......Other Information Cap 2.8 ltr, Cap 3.6 ltr. I have never seen this before where 2 oil levels have been quoted. Anyway, I use their oil level guide for other makes and they haven't got one wrong yet!! Hope this helps.

The colour of that oil was shocking for a petrol car, looks like it hasn't been changed for a long time. If it also has a turbo the owner is asking for trouble. My Leon TDI has the oil filter on the top of the engine. I use a Pela vacuum oil extractor though the dipstick hole, so much easier than getting under the car.

Need more love for Skoda on this platform. People still stick by the old prejudices and stereotypes of post-war, pre-Vag Skoda. Wonderful cars to drive; reliable cars, and great ol workhorses. Our 15 year old Octy is still ticking. Less than 100k on er, original headlight bulbs, never failed us and has yet to fail an MOT. My current car, Fabia Monte Carlo 1.6TDI CR (108Bhp) is just as easy to service and fun to drive. They're lovely cars and honestly; why pay the extra cash for a high end Volkswagen when you can get the same, if not more on a high spec Skoda for less. Just a thought; your engine sounds a little rough for having less than 50K. My previous monte carlo 1.2TSI (86Bhp) didn't sound so rough and i was wondering why yours sounds so loud. I mean lifter tick is a given with the engines. It's a sound you get accustomed to. But that is quite loud for what i'm used to. sadly to say Monty didn't get to reach 32K miles before he was wrote of by a box van (funny thing being that the van was in a much worse state than Monty was. He's on the road with a different owner now).

On these Oil Filters, the Top O-Ring gets Stuck in the Filter Housing. At 4:57 you can see an Old O-Ring from an Old Filter Stuck in there. The Oil-Pressure will get lower than it should be. Seen Cars with 2 O-Rings stacked on Top! These Engines are notorius for Timing Chain failure, this will make it even worse. You can hear it rattling when you started it up. Also, if you reset the Service Light with the Buttons on the Cluster, you will only get a 15k km and 1 Year Intervall. To get the 30k km and 2 Year Intervall you have to reset it over a Scan tool. You should correct this!

I’m a mechanic by trade, you should never fill oil to the full mark on the dipstick as it can cause other lights to come on, always put enough oil in so it’s just over half way as that will be enough. If you put to much oil in you can get a light coming on saying oil level to high meaning you’ll have to start all over. Also why did you check the oil level before running the motor, that will give you a false reading as the oil has not circulated
