Good luck or ambush? Select Skoda Octavia with mileage. Three main problems Skoda Octavia A7 Oktavia problems

The first generation was the object of studying the German TUV inspection service during the passage of 2005 inspection. TUV experts revealed typical faults of this machine.

Total assessment

disadvantages

By inheritance from Golf IV Czech Octavia got many sores. The breakdowns and failures are often associated with defective air flow sensors, driving the drive belts. Electrottel windows hang on half the farm, the installation of side mirrors is always knocked down. To the weak points of diesel versions of Octavia, it is possible to take a non-disconnected coupling, which capitulates before the powerful torque of these engines. Quite often come across the door locks. And in the machines of the first year of release, it annoys a rattling cladding of the cabin.

Conclusion TUV.

Body, chassis

Octavia is well opposed to corrosion, casting machines due to unacceptable rust even on the seventh year of life are minimal - 0.1%. True, a trend is traced here - almost all cases are associated with corrosion of the elements of the rear suspension. Occasionally a dangerous rust appears there on more fresh machines.

Electrician

The state of the on-board electrician in Octavia is always worse than the middle, starting with three years. The reason may be defective components or rosy owners, but the total one - the key parameters to the model there are numerous complaints. In the third year of life, 10.2% octavia technician did not receive life due to electrician failures, in the fifth - 17.2%, and in Germany did not pass in Germany each fifth machine (21.9%).

At this point, the main problems of Skoda Octavia are associated with the rear brakes - their effectiveness is always slightly worse than an average of a fleet. Nevertheless, according to experts, it is impossible to put an unequivocal "non-not", since the front brakes are always in excellent condition, and the production of brake discs at a good average level. In addition, the performance of the parking brake and the overall state of the brake pipelines, as a rule, does not cause complaints.

Ecology and exhaust

The system of nutrition on Octavia hermetic at any age, but the exhaust highway requires attention. More than 2% of the three years were able to pass their first inspection only after replacing the silencers, and there were 6.2% among the seven years. It is noticeable worse than the average parking lot.

Czech Octavia makes the impression of good-free cars devoid of any pathological ailments. And yet they would not prevent more efficient rear brakes and durable silencers.

It took place in December 2012, and Russian sales started on June 1, 2013. At the end of the same month, the production of the model at the full cycle began in Nizhny Novgorod. Unpatriotic customized citizens may say that it is the domestic assembly that caused the quality drop in the third "Octavia", but they will be in the root of the wrong. In fact, defects are found on machines of both Russian and European origin.

So, the strong body of the car can distort the rapid appearance of chips and scratches, regardless of where it is made. Due to bad aerodynamics, all dirt and water from the windshield turns out to be on the side windows. In addition, the rear review worsen miniature outer mirrors. There are complaints and insufficient. Some owners are ready to sacrifice 20,000-30,000 rubles to install additional "Shumkov". In fairness, we note that the "crickets" in the cabin is a bit, and their livestock does not increase over the years.


But on Liftbacks, the plaffers of the backlight of the license plate often fail due to moisture in them. Dealers usually set more sealed, LED 500 rubles from more expensive versions "". But the regular wiper brushes from the hands are badly coping with their responsibilities - most owners usually change them to new from other manufacturers. By the way, the "wipers" are effectively working on the glass with heating, which are not all versions of the car can boast.

The Russian versions of the car were put by gasoline turbo engines with a volume of 1.2 liters (105 hp), 1.4 liters (140 and 150 forces) and 1.8 liters (180 hp). In 2014, the base 1.2-liter engine was replaced by an atmospheric "four" volume of 1.6 l with a capacity of 110 forces. Turbodiesel is represented by a two-liter 143-strong (from 2015 - 150 hp) by the unit. All motors except the atmospheric are distinguished by increased oil consumption - the topping is usually spent to 1.5 liters per 15,000 km. But if the flow significantly exceeds this limit, you must urgently contact the service. There are cases when the head of the warranty cylinder head is replaced. Equally as a turbocharger. But after the end of the warranty period behind the turbine, the officials will have to lay out about 100,000 rubles, and for the head - almost twice as much. True, many non-original parts and nodes have recently appeared, the price of which is noticeably lower than that of branded.

All gasoline engines on Skoda Octavia are designed for fuel with an octane number of 95. Some owners in their own "" poured the 98th, although it is for nothing. But the 1.6-liter "Four" can safely work at 92nd. True, to save in this case will not work - the car will require fuel slightly more than on the 95th gasoline. It should be noted that the thermostat (6500 rubles), gas station (15,000), candles and ignition coils, as well as the fuel injection nozzles (26,000 rubles) may be prematurely in motors.

Engines work with one of five gears: five- and six-speed "mechanics", a six-band hydromechanical "automatic" or six and seven-speed DSG robots. As for the MCP and, they are generally reliable and trouble-free. The clutch is withstanding an average of 100,000 km, and its replacement will cost 42,000 rubles for the original set of details. On expensive versions of Skoda Octavia, sometimes together with the clutch, you have to change the two-mask flywheel - from 48,000 casual.

But modern robotic double-clutch boxes are still delivering to the owners of Czech cars a lot of problems even despite the fact that over the last ten years they have been modernized several times. In addition, the manufacturer gives a five-year-old for mechatronics and clutch knot. Nevertheless, cases of serious breakdowns take place today. If you certainly need an "automatic", we recommend paying attention to the usual ACP, which is characterized by decent quality and durability. True, it is combined exclusively with a 1.6-liter gasoline engine with a capacity of 110 forces.

In the OCTAVIA suspension, the rear shock absorbers can be called a weak point (on average 6500 rubles), which often have to change after 30,000 - 50,000 km of mileage. In the front suspension of the rack (7000 virgin), they are withstanding noticeably longer. It must be said that the chassis is rather tough and not every car enthusiast. There is one more but. All modifications of "Octavia" with a capacity of up to 150 forces are equipped with a semi-dependent rear suspension, and the flagship is 1.8-liter and - independent multi-dimensional. Therefore, only expensive variants of the Czech car can boast filigue handling.

In electrical equipment, some failures and glitches occur, however, more complaints from users cause features laid into the design. For example, many owners are unhappy with the fact that the regular audio system is deprived of the CD player, instead of which is equipped with a flash card slot. It is very difficult and mutually independently change the halogen light bulb. In addition, it is worth a lot - from 2000 rubles. By the way, very often burn out the lamps of external and internal lighting of the car ...

Summing up, we can say that in the content of Skoda Octavia is by no means cheaper than her German cousin. But "Czech" markedly behind him in terms of liquidity - over the years, the car decently loses in price. Three-year-old Liftback in good technical condition today you can buy from 450,000 rubles. Completely lifting amount, given that the price list on a new octavia begins with almost 900,000 casual.

Turn

Any manufacturer dreams of putting your brainchild for everyone to review. Moreover, if we are talking about such a prestigious Paris Automobile Salon. Manufacturers of the Skoda concern in 1996 were exposed to the court of specialists and the audience a new OCTAVIA car. It was a kind of exam: the Czech concern completely passed under the flags of the Senior Comrade Volkswagen. Octavia was their firstborn, completely new model, made on the VW Golf platform. The Skoda Octavia car (Skoda Octavia) claimed that the transition to a more "heavy weight category" class is higher, where cars produced in Czech factories have not been the half.

This appeared in 1996 by the new Skoda Oktavia at the Paris Automobile Salon

Higher hopes assigned to the updated production, implying that German pedanthide and the famous quality automatic dockey on Skoda cars. Calculated manufacturers that the car will be successful in the middle class, since the price was very tempting.

The management of the company was looking forward to customer reactions. Car enthusiasts have met the novelty heat than justified the hopes of manufacturers. Indeed, the new Skoda Octavia was characterized by a better assembly. The potential buyer could be satisfied, acquiring hatchback with a sedan features - such a combination of styles.

However, not everything so happened as I would like. The first cars, like children, hurt constantly. The central castle is constantly capricious, the trunk button was hit. Explicit flaws of plastic docks in the cabin were visible. We must pay tribute to the German designers, which promptly, literally on the guarantee, fixed flaws, gradually removing the "growth diseases". There were only those defects that occurred during the operation of Octavia.

The appearance of Octavia undoubtedly became more modern and more attractive. But what about "children's diseases"?

A few words about positive moments

On the "roads" of the post-Soviet space, the car showed himself from a positive side, withstanding all the "charms" of harsh (including) of Russian road reality. There are a number of positive moments that are simply impossible to be silent.

  1. Already as standard, Skoda Octavia comes with the protection of the engine crankcase. Protection is not made of plastic, but it is reliable - steel. We are objective: many models go at all without any bottom protection.
  2. Power units are in principle normally, do not sneeze, do not complain about the quality of our fuel. At the same time, the life of the candles passes a full cycle. The Germans do not put platinum, but establish simple, in which the service life does not exceed 30000.00 km. After the specified period, they are subject to replacement.

"Digging" in the "Patient" engines, we are looking for flaws

That is good, so this is the choice of aggregates represented by Skoda Octavia. But experienced "comrades" are not recommended to acquire a car operating on gasoline precisely 1.8 liters, not a turbocharged. It is, however, by him, as well as the power unit, the volume of 2.0 liters often arise the ESU (electronic control system) the engine, which will not always start at the first turn of the ignition key. Either the sensor may be the control unit itself, may be the perpetrators of the unstable engine operation. But the owner of the car from this, as they say, does not become easier, on the contrary. It will be forced to get from his own pocket a round sum of "American money" about 1000 $ -1300 $. This is not given the cost of the service service itself. Additional disadvantages of an off -urbated 1.8 liter engine - poorly started in winter. However, there are complaints with a 2.0-liter engine, which in the heat is started not by clicking the finger - the explicit overheating of the unit affects. He can also be capricious, poorly started in crude weather. There is also no interference to the interference with poor-quality domestic fuel.

Probed mainly octavia power unit 1.6 liter with a capacity of 101 liters. In Favor, there were turbocharged engines 1.8 liters of 150 l / forces. By the way, well who showed themselves at VW Passat. It was the engine of 1.8 liters who offered a lot of amateur options to "put up" above the iron. Tuning this unit approved German comrades, offering a lot of industrial options for improving not only the power unit, but the car as a whole. Tuuning engines are far back better than their serial fellow. We think that with the advent of new notes in the work of the motor, their owners are reached (in the good sense of the word).

The minimum price of tuning costs $ 800. This includes the replacement of the "brains" of the control system of the power unit. The engine power takes off to 190 horses! Statistics says that 20% of all sales throughout the entire light fall on a turbocharged engine operating on diesel. This is a diesel engine of 1.9 liters in 110 l / forces.

Machines with such a move accustomed from us. It is surprising that this diesel unit will be happy to use our diesel fuel without complaining of quality. Let's say more, the specialists of the company Bosch on fuel equipment, unfortunately, are forced to recognize that at least 50% of the failure of the fuel system is factory malfunctions, and not our solarium. There is a car on the frost almost always from the first turnover.

Those who are only configured to buy Skoda Octavia, we want to say that it is not necessary to independently deal with the oil change in the engine. The weak point of Octavia is considered a thread in the hole for draining testing. If you do not want to get into the amount of about $ 90 per pallet of the crankcase (plus a 40 $ stands its replacement), then it is better to impose duties on the shoulders of experienced workshops a hundred. Moreover, they are familiar with this problem.

There are in the line of power aggregates at Skoda Octavia engines of 1.8 liters consuming gasoline and 1.9 liter unit, working on diesel turbine with all-wheel drive transmission. What malfunctions, disadvantages of these motors? They have one general: not really a reliable control unit. From it you can wait for "dirtyness" by about 2,000 km of run. With regret, we inform that the host of an unhappy car for repairs must lay out $ 60 plus the control unit will pull at $ 400. In the future, the owners of the car with the all-wheel drive version must be regularly on the service book to replace the oil in the couphete. These aggregates of a certain tenderness are not deprived: Capricious, it is not always perfect.

Disadvantages of transmissions

MCPP In the total mass of trouble by automobile owners, Octavia is not presented. Although if you do not adjust the tension of the cable that is the link between the lever of the gearbox and the box through the recommended 15,000 km of the mileage arises. Save the more it is not necessary worth such an operation only $ 15.

Sick place at Skoda Octavia, equipped with a gasoline turbocharged engine and manual transmission, is a grip. All in the hands of the driver, his travel manners. For the same reason, before the deadline, it can end up its "labor path" suspension, its elements.

Warning for "Extremes": Mad race will not stand shock absorbers and rear silent blocks calculated by 80,000 km / 50000 km.

The weak site of Skoda Octavia equipped with an independent suspension traditionally protrude stabilizer racks. The shortcomings of the strength of the racks touched not only Skoda. They are inherent in almost all modern cars.

Disadvantages are detected in the operation of the control unit, which is responsible for opening the doors, including the trunk. The cost of works is about $ 40. On some models, the ignition lock is hired. The weak link is the ventilation and heating system (deflectors). The disadvantages are weak fastening of the muffler. The gum on which he is attached, persistently do not want to serve more than one year.

Cars in the body The wagon is sick with the closure of the fifth door - the trunk. Bad, especially in winter, the castle of the trunk opens, with whom it is necessary to tinker. Although it is recognized by all that the trunk of OCTAVIA spacious and problems with the transportation of necessary things does not occur.

As the option is invited to install an additional trunk on the roof of the car. But in this case, gasoline consumption will increase slightly. Difficulties may also occur when removing the additional trunk installed on the roof. We are talking about constant pollution, the castle opens with difficulty, it will agree to the obvious disadvantages.

Contradictory information comes from Czech-made car owners. Some say that the trunk lock is difficult to open. Others, on the contrary, argue that the latch of the trunk lock opens spontaneously. The trunk doors are easy to fit to the body itself. The weak gasket from this on Ughab and the uneven road of the trunk doors make constant noise and taut. The driver as a match flashes, starts on trifles. We think that there is nothing worse than listen, where to vibration and noise in your car comes from. Agree that it is this noise that distracts the driver from control.

If you adhere to the manufacturer's recommendation, then in a conversation with colleagues such words and phrases will disappear: the car does not start, the turhalit motor. You will not list the shortcomings, and bending your fingers with the word minuses. Clean, take care of your car, he will answer you the reciprocity - the long work of all the nodes and aggregates.

Certificate of Skoda Octavia A5
(photo, modifications, engines, gearbox, main problems, prices)

general information

The second generation of the Skoda Octavia generation received the designation A5 (based on its platform) and replaced the previous model of Skoda Octavia A4. The new version was presented in March 2004. The car is built on the A5 platform (intra-water designation PQ35), which it divides with the second generation AUDI A3, Volkswagen Golf fifth generation and other promotional models. In addition to the new engine line, the model received a more spacious interior, in particular more space for the feet of the rear passengers (weak place of the prior generation). In addition, the road clearance was increased in front and rear.

The production of the model was established in many countries, including Russia - at the end of 2007, the production of Skoda Octavia in Kaluga was open. In India, the second generation of Octavia was sold under the name Laura to distance themselves in a higher market segment from the first generation model, which was also sold there until 2010, but from 2010 to 2012 the price of Laura was reduced and she was already focused on that part of the market, where Prior to that, the first generation was positioned.

In the OCTAVIA A5 model, there were two all-wheel drivers: 4x4 and Scout. Both versions used four-wheel drive with Haldex coupling. Each modifications have increased ground clearance: 24 mm for version 4x4 and 40 mm for scout. The scout itself was introduced in 2006 and was available only in the body of the wagon. Outwardly, it was different from ordinary octave increased bumpers and plastic body kit that attached to him a more cross-cut.

3. Body Skoda Octavia A5 (LCP, Corrosion Hearts, Problem Places)

The Skoda Octavia A5 body is good galvanized and is not afraid of the effects of external aggressive factors. But it is only as long as there was no external intervention in the LCP or body repair. No matter how well they tried to repair the body, especially if there was a replacement of one or more elements, the zinc coating will not be uniform, which means that the appearance of corrosion foci in places of repair is very likely.

Do not believe that if they write somewhere that the paint from the thresholds or the arches of Skoda Octavia A5 peers from old age, it is very unlikely. The paint itself does not get out of cars, most likely it was simply a body repair, which was done inappropriately. But this concerns only completely launched cases:

Small chips are possible, since the zinc coating has a negative side: the paint is on the zinc, it is not so tight as on the ground, which covers the neoscinal steel body parts. Thus, you should not be surprised if the stones will leave enough noticeable chips that it is worth tying enough quickly so that the chips do not increase their area.

There are also other purely Skodovskiy features inherent in almost all models of the brand. For example, the rear bumpers are very tightly attached to the body, and during the operation of the car, the bumper sits on the body. This leads to the fact that the paint begins to wipe, and at the junction of two parts there are foci of corrosion (the so-called "beetles"). For those who have no one else manifest itself - you can remove the bumper and apply a transparent vinyl film between the wing and bumper - it will save the body from abrasion of paint.

On all versions of Skoda Octavia A5, very good door seals are installed, which do not allow water to get into the car's salon, even in cases where the body drives very deep puddles. But these seals, unfortunately, wipe the paint on the body very much, after which they are accepted for zinc coating. It is necessary to avoid the appearance of sand and dirt in the zones of contact of seals and the bodies. The essence is also that the abrasion of paint is happening not only at the moments of opening and closing the doors, but also because the doors themselves are somewhat walking in their movements, due to the fact that the body does not have sufficient rigidity torsion (peculiar to elephants before The appearance of the MQB platform).

Also on the thresholds of Skoda Octavia A5, a layer of anti-agravia is applied on the border of which, LCP (microcracks) defects may appear, which ultimately leads to the appearance of sufficiently noticeable paint detacies. In order to catch such defects at the initial stage and try to clean them and paint, it is worth spending on this edge with your finger: if the detachants and softness do not feel - it means everything is fine, and if the edge of the anti-agvine coating began to move under touching the finger - it means in this place Already began to disclose paint and anti-gravia.

Surprise paint on the hood of Skoda Octavia A5 is very good and even with an active ride on the highway, chips on the hood appears not so much as it might be. What you can not say about the roof of the car, there just chips are formed quite easily and begin to expand quite quickly.

4. Body colors Skoda Octavia A5 (paint codes)

You can learn your paint code either by decoding the VIN number, or by a sign with the options of options from the service book (the same table is duplicated by the sticker in the trunk next to the spare wheel niche.

For example, in the photo below we see the code 9154 . We look at the table matching the paint and among the full code we find 9154 / F5x / 5t5t, which suggests that the car to which the nameplate belongs in the photo has a color Satin Grey..

5. Interior Skoda Octavia A5

5.1 Preparation options Skoda Octavia A5

Skoda Octavia A5 had various color combinations in the interior. Most often in Russia, this is a black interior of the color "Anthracite", but in Europe and other countries it was possible to choose anthracite combinations with light gray and beige inserts.

Depending on the configuration, decorative inserts in the cabin changed:

  • Black plastic (Classic and Active configuration);
  • Painted in silver metallic (Ambiente and AMBITION);
  • With imitation of the structure of aluminum or wood (elegance);
  • Black piano varnish (Laurin & Klement).
At the dorestayling version there was another version of the salon "Dynamic" with sport seats

The most rich in the equipment of the interior finishing version was Laurin & Klement, only her decorative inserts on a black piano varnish. This version also has been equipped with leather seats and seats with combined finish from Alcantara and Skin.

The RS versions also relied the salon with a completely leather or combined trim, while the color execution of the seats could also vary. Seats at Octavia RS have a more bright profile. Also on RS versions stood a three-wing steering wheel with a sporting grip, decorated with perforated skin.

5.2 Multimedia systems Skoda Octavia A5

Skoda Octavia A5 was completed with various multimedia systems that differed in their functions. At the same time, dorestayling multimedia systems differed from those that were installed on restyled cars.

Head devices Skoda Octavia A5 (Dore styling) (02.2004-10.2008)

Skoda Melody
He was equipped with a CD player, AM / FM radio, RDS system, coding system to a specific machine, 2 x 20 W sound amplifier and an input MINI-JACK connector to connect Hands-Free headset. It has the ability to connect a multi-module and maxidot display.

Skoda Stream
He was equipped with a CD / MP3 player, AM / FM radio, RDS system and a large monochrome spot display, allowing to output outdoor temperature data, show time, and duplicate climate system climate system, parking sensors and a connected hands-free headset. Sound amplifier has the same power as Melody: 4 x 20 W. It has the ability to connect a multi-mallow, maxidot display and CD changer.

Skoda Audience.
Equipped with all the same features as Skoda Stream, but in addition to them there is also a built-in CD changer on 6 disks.

Skoda Cruise Navigation System
It has a large monochrome display that displays the navigation direction using schematic arrows. The system also displays the number of kilometers to the target and the remaining time of the path. Navigation instructions in addition to visual designations are also accompanied by voice comments. For navigation, special navigation CDs are used that require updates and change for different regions. The rest of the functionality corresponds to what the Stream head is offered.

Skoda Nexus Navigation System
It has a color liquid crystal display that displays detailed navigation along with the locality map. The display displays a detailed route to the target, and the information is duplicated on Maxidot dashboard sliles. It has the ability to alert about the road atmosphere.

Head devices Skoda Octavia A5 (re styling) (11.2008-06.2013)

Skoda Blues.
The same device that in the dorestayling version of Octavia A5 was called Skoda Melody. He was equipped with a CD player, AM / FM radio, RDS system, coding system to a specific machine, 2 x 20 W sound amplifier and an input MINI-JACK connector to connect Hands-Free headset. It has the ability to connect a multi-module and maxidot display.

Skoda Swing.
The base 2-DIN model offers functions like FM / AM radio, CD / MP3 player, visualization of parking assistant on a monochrome display with a resolution of 302 x 45 pixels, Bluetooth (in some models) and USB support, AUX (in some models). Does not allow you to connect such functions as a rear view camera, output to the screen, there is no possibility of navigating, viewing photos and videos.

Skoda Bolero.
It has a significantly large functionality compared to Swing. A touchscreen color screen with a diagonal of 6.5 inches and a resolution of 400x240 pixases allows you to connect the rear view chamber. An indicators from the climate system and other sides of the comfort are also displayed. Has support for multi-melling, MaxiDot display, SD cards. The player supports CD and MP3 formats, as well as incoming AUX and USB ports.

Skoda AMUNDSEN / AMUNDSEN +
This head unit had a color touch screen with a diagonal of 5 inches and with a resolution of 400x240, support for navigation software, CD, SD. Bluetoth in this model was absent, but it was possible to install it additionally. Navigation in this GU worked from the disk, and not everyone was supported by the cards. Also in this GU there was no connector for the rear view camera, which made it impossible to put it up.

AMUNDSEN + has the ability to download cards directly in memory of the GU itself, which eliminates the need to use a compact disc with navigation for these purposes. Also amundsen + has a built-in Bluetooth model and makes it possible to connect the rear-view chamber to the gu.

Skoda Columbus.
The device was equipped with a large 6.5-inch touch screen with a resolution of 800x480 pixels and LED backlit. Columbus also had functions such as support for navigation, video playback, as well as internal memory, which allowed you to download maps and navigation updates directly inside the header.

6. Technical Features and Hidden Functions Skoda Octavia A5

Skoda Octavia A5 is built on the PQ35 platform and has quite wide opportunities for coding and activating various functions of the internal equipment of the car. With a list of functions that can be activated on Skoda Octavia A5, you can find a separate forum page that is dedicated.

6.1 Suspension

Skoda Octavia A5 suspension is completely independent: McPherson front and multi-dimensional rear. Oktavia A5 suspension is unpretentious and reliable. But you have to be prepared that once in 60-80 thousand km it will be necessary to change the stabilizer racks 1K0 411 315 R. It is less likely to flow shock absorbers and breakage of springs (although, if he strongly load the trunk, then the rear springs and the amrizers will require replacement on the mileage of about 50 thousand km).

6.2 Torkes

Front and rear disc brakes (front - ventilated), which differ in dimension depending on the engine model. At Skoda Octavia A5, the following front brake mechanisms were put on:

  • 1ZF. - Teves FS III 280x22 mm for 15 "" disks - (discs 1K0 615 301 AS, pads 1K0 698 151 F) - for basic modifications 1.4 MPI and 1.6 MPI
  • 1ze. - Teves 288x25 mm for 15 "" disks - (discs 1K0 615 301 T , pads 5K0 698 151.) - for basic modifications 1.4 TSI and 1.8 TSI
  • 1ZB. - 312x25 mm for 16 "" disks - (discs 1K0 615 301 AA , pads 3C0 698 151 C) - for modifying RS
The rear brake mechanisms on Skoda Octavia A5 were supplied in the following versions:
  • 1kd. - C38HR-A LUCAS 253x10 mm - (disks 1K0 615 601 AB , pads 1K0 698 451 J)
  • 1KF. - CII41HR-A LUCAS 258x12 mm - (wheels 1K0 615 601 AJ , pads 1K0 698 451 g)
  • 1ks, 1kt. - Zoh Bir3 38 Bosch 272x10 mm - (disks 1K0 615 601 AA , pads 5K0 698 451.)
  • 1kp. - cii38hr-a lucas 282x12 mm - (disks 5q0 615 601 g , pads 1K0 698 451 g) - RS version.
On how to independently replace the rear brake discs and pads on the Skoda Octavia A5 can be found in a separate one.

6.3 Transmission

Skoda Octavia A5 was equipped with both front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive transmissions. All-wheel drive transmission uses the Haldex Traction system with a computer-controlled central coupling, which is capable of automatically redistributing the torque, transmitting an effort to the selected wheel to 85%.

On various modifications, the Skoda Octavia A5 was set by the following versions of gearboxes.

  • 5-speed MCPP 0AF.
  • 5-speed MCPP 0a4.
  • 6-speed MCPP MQ250 02S.
  • 6-speed MCPP MQ350 02Q.
  • 6-speed hydrotransformer
  • 6-speed robotic (with wet clutches)
  • 7-speed robotic (with dry clutches)

7. Frequent problems and features of the maintenance of Skoda Octavia A5:

Skoda Octavia A5 is reliable and has established itself as an excellent option for pragmatics, which not only does not cause special hassle, but also performs a lot of all kinds of tasks in terms of universality and the convenience of transportation of goods. Despite all this, there is also octavia A5 and a number of features that you should remember.

7.1 Tensile the chain of the MRM mechanism and Mouse Melting 1.8 TSI

Diesel and atmospheric drives the drive mechanism of the timing belt, so do not need to neglect its replacement once in 90 thousand km. (The plant recommends that inspection every 60,000 km and replacement of 120,000 km). Turbomotors have a chain drive, which, according to the plant, is designed for the entire service life. But this is not the case at all, because it is not enough that the chains are stretched on these engines, so before 2012 they could make a crossroad due to the constructive flaw of the tensioner of the timing tensioner.

7.4 Problems with Robot DSG

According to the manufacturer's plant, a 7-speed preselative robotic DSG box is designed for 300 thousand kilometers of run, but the situation with it is complex. In fact, this "robot" turned out to be the most problematic place Octavia. The minimum, with which the owner may encounter, it is clanging, which is coming out of the box when driving at low speeds. Plus jerks and vibrations within the first two gears. For a lifetime, such phenomena do not affect anywhere. Unlike permanent urban exploitation, if a significant part of it falls on traffic jams.

The mechanical part of the "seventures" is unlikely to force to contact the service. "Mechatronics" is able to demand a replacement for 30-40 thousand km. Well, if it was done before the end of the warranty. What is even more interesting, the "preselement" itself appeared on Skoda only with restyling. But then the 6-speed automatic transmission was returned to version with 1.8 TSI. And correctly, the problems described are more characteristic of the most powerful modification.

7.5 sufficiently reliable, but not perpetual automatic 09G

AISIN TF-61SN "automat" is still known as 09G according to modern standards of not bad. Up to 100 thousand km need to be monitored except for the inner left boot drive, which has a tendency to rush after the winter season (3,000 rubles). The inner left screen can also fail and start creating unpleasant vibration during acceleration.

After 100,000 km of mileage, slip and shocks "on hot" can begin, while "on the cold unit" everything will work fine. All this promises the owner to replace the hydroblock. But then the burnt friction and destruction of "planetics" can follow. This happens not at all and some cars with automatic transmission 09g pass 250-300 thousand km without any special problems.

Remember that the oil in the automatic transmission is also changing every 60,000 km, as well as on the DSG.

8. Prices at the time of production and in the secondary market

The price of Skoda Octavia 2009 "Ambient" at the time of production in Russia was located within 499-735 thousand rubles for the body of Hatchback and 535-755 thousand rubles for the Universal (COMBI). The price of Skoda Octavia 2009 "Elegance" ranged from 629 to 779 thousand rubles for hatchback and from 669 to 819 thousand rubles for a wagon.

Looking at such prices now, you begin to "bite elbows", and you think, that's what I had to buy then to go now and still not know problems (of course without DSG).

To date, the secondary market is filled with a mass of proposals for the sale of Octavia A5, as they were produced very much, and in Russia it became one of the best bestsellers. Proposals for more or less decent copies begin with 300,000 rubles. But here you need to be very careful, since Skoda Octavia is one of the favorite cars for a taxi (confirms reliability and versatility), especially version 1.6 MPI with MCPP. It is clear that such cars will be squeezed "to the last drop"

Therefore, it is better to watch the proposals at a price closer to 500,000 rubles., But and there it is necessary to be alert, because it is now about octavia in good condition - a great success and an excellent investment.

Restyled cars of the last years of release 2012-2013 will be the best option, as they did not have completely empty sets (dealers made discounts and heated interest in the outgoing model), and 1.4 TSI engines have already received an upgraded MRM mechanism. Therefore, it is worth choosing either 1.4 TSI MCPP or 1.6 MPI MCPP / automatic transmission. Versions with 1.8 TSI Though powerful, but suffer from metal and ultimately require replacement of the piston group.

Also should always be remembered for basic, which will help not make obvious errors when choosing a car.

My cars: Skoda Octavia A5 AMBITION 1.6 MPI (BSE) 102 hp ACPP-6 09G and some more German garbage \u003d)

Skoda Octavia passenger car is known worldwide. He is produced by the German company since 2013. The manufacturer offers two body options: Liftbek, wagon.

Weaknesses Skoda Octavia (A5) 2004-2013 release

  • Chassis;
  • Interior design;
  • Electronic control system;
  • Thread in draining testing;
  • Control block;
  • Automatic transmission;
  • MCPP;
  • Clutch;
  • Front stabilizer

The suspension is ideal for Russian roads. It is soft and quiet, well smoothes irregularities. The only disadvantage is the knock, which appears when moving on small revolutions back and forth. Not everyone can determine the cause of the shortcoming. Some masters sin on the fluctuations formed during the operation of the engine. They are transmitted by the exhaust system, which gives them to the body. Eliminate the sore is unlikely to succeed.

Suspension details decent service life:

  • Stabilizer bushings - 50 thousand km, sometimes up to 80 thousand km;
  • Ball supports - 100 thousand km;
  • Support bearings - 140 thousand km;
  • Silent blocks - 170 thousand km;
  • Sleeves of transverse and longitudinal levers - 110 thousand km.

Salon design

The weak side of the car is salon. Its design does not differ creativity and originality. It is quite simple and ordinary. Creative search is a big risk that is not always justified. The manufacturer adheres to conservative views in this matter, therefore does not experiment. His main goal is to preserve the comfort, the convenience and pleasant view of the car.

Electronic control system

Not a turbocharged engine of 1.8 and 2.0 liters, which works on gasoline, not the best version of the car. The defects in it is the electrical control system. Quite often during operation, problems arise with it. To the engine started, you need to turn the ignition key several times. This suggests that the sensor or control unit failed.

This situation is observed not only in winter, but also in the heat or crude weather. The cause of the malfunction can be low-quality gasoline. You can eliminate the problem by replacing the node that is unstable. Not only the price of it is high, but also the cost of specialists will require additional financial costs.

Thread in draining testing

Some craftsmen independently change the oil in the engine. In this case, it is not worth doing. Since there is a thread that is not better quality in draining. If you do not consider this vulnerable spot of Skoda Octavia, then the likelihood of what the cost of purchasing a new starter pallet will be required. Its cost is located in the area of \u200b\u200b100 dollars. To this price, you must add payment for replacement. It is about 50 dollars.

Control block

Many octave disease A5 bad control unit. After two thousand kilometers of operation, problems arise with him. Repair of a node costly pleasure. The owner of the car will have to spend at least 500 dollars. This includes the price of the details and services of the Master.

This unit is sufficiently genuine and capricious. So that it will last longer, the owner of the all-wheel drive model must be replaced by the oil dealer only.

The weak place of the automatic gearbox is a hydraulicone. It is quite capricious and requires regular cleaning even with a timely replacement of oil. Otherwise, the probability of failure of valves is large. One of them controls the locking of the hydrotransformer, and the second regulates the main pressure. A small resource in linear solenoids, speed sensors, wiring, couplings and a full drive.

One of the most common complaints of the owners is related to the troubles in the work of the MCPP. The manufacturer advises the adjustment of the tension cable through Mileage 15000. It binds the lever of the PPC and the box. If this is not done, then problems with the aggregate are inevitable.

The cost of such a procedure is not more than 10 dollars. Therefore, it makes no sense to save. At this point it is worth paying attention if a used car is bought.

The clutch often becomes the cause of the problem of the machine. It depends on the appearance of the driver's ride style. If it is bad, then before the deadline will come to the unsuitability of the suspension and its elements.

Shock absorbers and rear silent blocks are hardy. They are able to withstand the passage of up to 80 thousand kilometers. But if you regularly organize serious races, this period will decrease at times.

Stabilizer's pole

Many cars rack stabilizer have a sore place. Skoda Octavia A5 did not exception. The breakdown in this node occurs due to their insufficient strength for Russian roads.

The main disadvantages of Skoda Octavia (A5) of the 2nd generation

  1. High cost of spare parts and master services;
  2. Control unit that adjusts the opening and closing of doors, trunk;
  3. Ventilation and heating system;
  4. Fastening of the muffler;
  5. Large oil consumption of oil;
  6. Glass PTF;
  7. Hard suspension.
