A US oil lab recommending 5k miles changes, astounding...

Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk

Nobody knows what Skoda Service used - during my life in UK...I saw Fuchs...Germany would be similar I guess.

 

A name doesn't matter - my point is never use cheap rubbish from garage/service. You see what happen.

 

I used to speak with an expert on oils - he is also known as Myth Buster. Diesel Engine oils max 10k km if lucky - soot is number one killer. Premium oils still have additives and viscosity but they are already full of rubbish.

 

It doesn't matter for people who drive 1000km annually - I drive 30k+ km per year....A car on official service would be dead in three years in my case. i have no time to be stuck 1000km away from home base.

Point firmly missed, especially ironic in this case.

You do about the same mileage as me. Having stuck to 10k mile servicing / oil changes for the last 12 years, haven't had any problems such as you describe.

Interestingly neither have we had any issues with our fleet of vans at work which do 30k+ miles a year.

Skoda use Shell oil, rebranded "quantum" in their (VAG) own bottles.

This is the same throughout Europe and likely globally at any VAG dealership.

Oils must meet the VAG standard regardless of brand or cost unless you wish to kill your engine. If an engine is dead at 200km then it's been abused, and looked after poorly including using cheap oil including the wrong spec.

As for the insults, this isn't how it works on briskoda.net. Expect something winging it's way to you shortly on that front.

And how many your cars did last 500k km and still have higher compression pressure than in tires? ;-)

And what does that comment have to do with anything I said, anything you said or the price of fish?

Actually my previous Octavia used no oil in 115k miles, fuel consumption was unchanged. I never had to top the oil up.

You seems to have hard time with reading and understanding of comments sir (I know my English is bad but all people I worked in UK with, understood me clearly)

 

Misunderstood comments - reporting as "abusive".

 

Perhaps, you should start reading all over again and think hard before you enlighten people here.

 

It is like talking with children from special school. I present facts about oil and cars and you speak about cooking.

 

Please, report me again that I'm abusive - show people how great person you are.

I'm not too sure how you speak to people in Austria (and I appreciate that there may be misinterpretations in how you are perceived by people in the UK(and vice versa)) but you have to realise that public arguments and derogatory comments will cease immediately as what you 'want' to say, may be viewed differently by others.

 

At this moment I'm leaving the thread open but would like to see things move on in a more 'Briskoda' sort of way. That's where everyone has constructive posts - but without any more snide comments.

I have reported none of your posts. Say what you want about me, you can't begin to understand how little I care.

I've just removed a post by mikeholroyd as he was probably typing at the same time as I was and probably didn't see what course this thread was going to take?

Sniper29a,no one has reported this again, I have seen for myself how you behave English as a first language or not. Your tone needs to change.

Consider a 2nd warning on its way.

Various posts on here have been removed by the moderators for pretty obvious reasons.

 

Is is any wonder that you reported for being abusive when you tell one member to see an optician because he must be blind, and to post a comment telling me to kill myself? Get real. In all the years I have been a member on Briskoda I have never, ever been subjected to that kind of abuse. And never once have I ever posted directly personal and abusive comments to anyone else, no matter how much opinions differ. Abusive and totally unnecessary? Damn right you were bang out of order.

 

As far as enlightening people, I think I speak for the majority when I say that we would rather be enlightened by the VAG experts rather than some of the comments you try to convince us with.

Everybody has seen and interpreted reports in readable size but ONE - he must be blind. What is abusive about it? Some joke about optician - you English have no sense of humour.

 

"I recommend to kill your self - would you do it?" What is abusive about this statement. It is reply to your argument about blind following of recommendation. What is abusive about it? At least in rest of world it means IF SOMEONE RECOMMENDS SOMETHING, IT DOESN'T MEAN YOU MUST DO IT. I could write it better so it is clearly understood. I see you understood this statement as taunting or so.

 

If you are not sure - either ask or don't speak at all.

That's enough - thread locked.
