  1. Hi, I bought my Octavia about 3 months ago and I've enjoyed it a lot. After a while I took my car to regular service got my oil changed, spark plugs and every filter changed. But right after the service (about 20km) check engine light pops up and took my car back to the mechanic. Code was P2196 and we just erased it. Engine light didn't show up until about 2000km later. I decided to change O2 sensor and thought it fixed the issue but after about 1000km check engine light came out again. This time I felt that engine was cutting out around 2000rpm when cold. But as soon as it warmed up it stopped. This was fixed by changing ignition coils. Check engine lights up about every 1000km and it disappears itself if I don't reset it. It doesn't seem to have effect on fuel economy or running. Here's what I've done to try to fix it: Changed lambda sensors, Cleaned MAF sensor, changed ignition coils (to fix the misfiring) and used injector cleaner. I took my car to the mechanic but there I was told everything should be fine. The question is what should I do with it? It's becoming annoying since I drive around 2000km a month and need my car every day. Thanks in advance!
