Advice on end of warranty

Featured Replies

Evening folks,

My Octavia VRS is approaching its 3 year birthday and as such apart from it needing an MOT it is coming to the end of the standard warranty period offered by Skoda uk.

I am after experience/advice on the ares I need to check/get looked at priori to its end so that she it ends I do not get a nasty surprise!!!

I have a few areas where the speakers have a vibration from the bass that is not right and will get looked at but I am. Or after areas where genre are known issues or areas of concern.

I am not trying to screw anyone around, I just want to ensure my pride and joy does not have a bad day/month and will keep going with my little one on the way!!

Many thanks folks

Hi Matt

For what it's worth I've had my Octavia VRS II for 3 years now and I've extended the warranty twice after the 12 month dealer warranty @ £449 pa inc breakdown but haven't had a single reason to claim on it. One common issue on these is the lower edge of the windscreen can start going milky and I considered getting that done under warranty but decided against it in the end as it wouldn't have achieved the same factory bonded seal - but a personal choice and depends how badly affected it is. And I'm not sure if the infernal boot seal issue is a warranty fix or not but it's been discussed on this forum before (water not being channeled away properly and coming in at the bottom edge of the seal - check your spare wheel well!).
