Noticed this when washing the other day, the paint has peeled off, size around 1cm at the widest area

Didn't realise the primer is black underneath?

How much should I expect this to cost to repaint, or shall I just do a touch up?

Don't suppose Skoda will touch it under warranty!?

You might get away with just a respray on the bottom of the door. My guess at price would be approx £100

I might attempt a touch up kit first, just to protect it.

Need new tyres and due 3rd variable service in 3 months, so looking to not shell out too much!

 

Thanks

I had a similar sized area on O/S/F door, presumably where previous owner scuffed it when opening - I had one of the 'smart repairs' done to it and it cost me £60.

Thanks, I may consider that

I also had a similar patch on my Octavia, I did it myself with the genuine Skoda £8 touch up pen. Unless you are on your hands and knees you'd never tell.

I think I will go down this route first, will pick one up from dealers on Friday

 

Cheers

Hi I have a 2009 diesel VRS and have the same issues at both wheel/cill section - paint and protective finish gone!  Missed at the service?  So a lot going on re Audi recognised this on their S-line cars and fitted clear helicopter tape as fitted to the rear wheel arch's to combat stone chips.  So with me it is a service issue, but also maybe a design fault with wider tryes and wheels and no mud flaps available so no mitigation planned by Skoda.  I am happy to keep you updated on this?
