How Often Should I Get My Car Serviced?

The service requirements will vary depending upon the model and engine. Fabia Models require a lubrication service at 10,000 miles and an inspection at 20,000 miles or 12 months whichever is sooner. All Octavia and Superb Models can operate on either a fixed or a variable servicing regime. Variable servicing allows a car to be driven up to approx. 20,000 miles for petrol engines, 30,000 miles for 4 cylinder diesel and 24,000 miles for V6 Diesel. Further information may be found in the Service Schedule contained within the vehicle document wallet or by contacting your local retailer.
