  3. Iv had the car for over 4 and half years I got the car in about 100k and now have done 250k in total regular maintained etc oil filter and oil change and dipstick hasn't been changed
  4. The guy that did the dpf was a specialist but the problem started before that been good few months I had this problem when I got the car in 2018 but I was advised not to use oe oil quantum and I switched to granville and have used ever since and had no problem until few months ago when the crank seal was replaced as there had been a slight leak and after that is when the oil consumption became more consistent every 5 days or so top up 1 litre plus below is the record iv kept of the times I had put oil in past few times 248555 1 litre oil 29 Aug 2022 7 9 22 engine light 249627 1 litre engine oil at 249629 23 20 7 9 22 1 litre at 11 sep 2022 250100

  13. hi i have a 64plate skoda octavia mk3 2.0 tdi and recently the engine management light has come on and the code that keeps popping up is the p023a having a read online it shows charge air cooler circuit but the mechanic i use was confused what it was even the parts shop so i rang the skoda dealers and they told me that code could be the issue with a pressure senor on top of the manifold or the egr just wondering has anyone else had this issue and what would be the solution?
