Just collected my Octavia after its third service plus cam belt change ( a bit early) at 53000 miles.

A bombshell is that, for all new Skodas, they will need an additional oil and filter service every year or 10,000 miles, whichever comes sooner. I could not believe this but queried it several times.

I appreciate that this does not affect my car, but it may affect any decision to buy a new Skoda in future.

Anyone else come across this revelation?

Not sure whether i believe this unless they have gone down the seat route!

You are right on having your cambelt changed early....67k too early if its a CR.

Locked, already discussed here:
