Service and oil change info

Featured Replies

I'm confused by the myskoda app. The service bit says inspection in 475 days/at 11000 miles and oil in 339 days/at 6300 miles, my mileage is 8944, should I have had an oil change already? I've had the car from new, since March this year.

Not unless you ask to have the car on Fixed Service Intervals when you were going to collect it?

 

The cars leave the factory on Variable / Flexible servicing, so 18,000 -20,000 miles / 24 months. 

 

If changed to Fixed Servicing 9,400 miles / 372 days at the PDI then maybe because the Dealership does it  without permission,

or the Owners / Driver / Fleet want that or the Lease / Service plan requires it.

 

The car if reset should not be showing Oil Services and Inspections at different times. 

24 months from the PDI, or hand over.  They mess things about.

Funnily enough I had a problem trying to reset my oil service reminder, it was stuck to 4700 miles/180 days.

 

Tried a few times with diag tool and instruments but it didn't work.

 

Had to dig a bit deeper and it appears someone had set the oil quality to low.

 

Set it to flexible now it won't come on again for another 18000 miles/720 days.

Is there a setting in the system for an oil setting of oil quality low?

 

Not just a Fixed Oil Service Regime which suits Non Long Life Oil,  as in to VW502 00.   That is not a Low Quality oil.

Not that I can find, I'm going to take my life in my hands and have a conversation with the dealers service dept tomorrow! 

Yes there was low, good and quality.

Where is that? 

Sorry it was using diagnostic equipment, you will probably find your car hasn't had an oil change yet and it's on the flexible interval.

Just as a comparison ... my vRS Tsi was new in March but I got it with 16 miles on it at the end of September and the app is showing;

 

Mileage        778

Inspection   in 655 days/at 19,199ml

Service         in 613 days/at 16,900ml

^^^  Thanks. 

Again just the sort of nonsense that comes up for Service Intervals.

 

This Green Fixed Service Regime chart is inaccurate, eg, Cam belt / DSG but it is what came about from 2019 when Skoda UK changed the Minor / Interim & Major time about, 

and the Extras cost Extra.
