Hi,
My 2008 1.9 L Diesel Octavia Rider has been sparingly used - 35K kms done in 9 years.
All of a sudden, on a drive in Bangalore, it spluttered with heavy emission of white fumes, & engine vibration & noise. The car had no previous history of these symptoms. (Previously, it has driven smoothly & powerfully with the only minor issues being need to change brake pad, oils etc).
Now doing it's time in a Service station, the suspicion around faulty fuel injector, to issues around the engine are being investigated.
Another issue encountered is rodent biting through wires in the bonnet - that has been a recurring issue - this has led to electricals - A/c, indicators not working as a result.
Can anyone help with their similar experience with Skoda Octavia & how they resolved this issue. Who is the best mechanic to help in this situation.
Overall, the Skoda ASS seem inconsiderate - when it comes to trying to resolve this issue methodically & efficiently - they're money minded & want to maximise their bom estimate.
Thanks,
Vivek.

I have been using octavia rider since 4 years.
Robust machine, excellent mileage.
It is dream car for highway users because of very good safety features & mileage.
Bit heavy for city use.
But always check the reputation of dealer in your city.As aftersales service is utmost important for your peace of mind.
Very good fuel economy around 20 to 25 Km / L in diesel on highways, Feels like you are in a vaultLess leg room in the rear, Poor & irresponsible service back upExterior/Styles

Great car, difficult to get spare parts. There is a lack of enthusiasm on the part of skoda dealers to service or repair this car. Most of the dealers who sell skoda cars have multiple car agencies, such as Volvo, BMW etc, & their focus is primarily on selling those other vehicles. The distributors of skoda should ensure that only those agencies are hired who's primary interest is in Skoda.
