Servicing - Inspection & Oil Change

Featured Replies

Has anyone had their MK2 serviced yet?

I’m due an “Inspection” in 4000 miles and an “Oil Change” in 2800 miles.

Can these both be done at the same time? Seems rather pointless booking it in twice within a month of each other?

I’m currently on 16,000 miles and it’s the 1.5 PHEV.

Nosy but, who supplied & handed over the car or did the PDI on it.?

Yes get both at the same time. At the Oil & Inspection service.

Someone made the mistake at the PDI or last service not to have them set to be at the same time.

There is no just an 'Inspection'.

There are Oil & Inspection services.

?

Should the 1.5TSI PHEV not be only on 'Fixed OIl Service Regimes' as the 1.4 TSI PHEV,s were.

9,400 miles / 372 days. ?

Yours must be on Variable / Flexible. 18,000 - 20,000 24 months..

The reason for Fixed Oil and filter changes was that maybe the engine was not fired up much if doing lots of running on charges.

You mileage and engine used is probably high enough, or VW Group / Skoda have changed the Schedules.

I bet the Dealership that handed over the car have no price for just an 'Inspection'.

Make sure they do a Body condition inspection at the Service.

Skoda / VW are the ones that say if ever a Corrosion Warranty claim that no record of being done. Not that the T&C,s says that they should be. But their bumf says included.

Car was registered in December 2024 so this will be the first service.

It appears to the 18,000-20,000 variable service regime as it’s saying around 3000 miles time or 500 days.

I’ll get both “services” done on the same visit.

Thanks for the info.

I have automatic service scheduling enabled on the MySkoda app so the local dealer should contact me soon the arrange the service!

There are not 2 services. The 'Inspection' is a red herring. A false item.

It could have showed as Oil Filter @ 1 year and Oil & Inspection Service at 2nd year.

Fixed Servicing regime.

But someone never set the service indicator properly.

Variable / Flexible or as was Major Service as in first service at 2 years / 18,000-20,000 miles should be the Oil & filter and reset of the stuff.

The DQ400-e DSG Service is due at 40,000 miles.

My Superb new in December 2024 when I was told service every 12 months. MySkoda app says service in 481 days which seems more like a 24 month service interval. Who should I believe. IMG_3647.png

To the best of my knowledge all new Skoda vehicles are still set to variable (or longlife) service regime when new which is up to every 30,000km (18,600 miles) for those who drive generally longer journeys. For people who do mainly shorter journeys the service can be changed to 15,000km (9300 miles - or every 12 months).

In your case it looks like it is set to variable servicing so unless you do lots of short journeys I would leave it on the current service schedule and get it serviced when it will let you know via the app and also on the car dash.
