Motor oil for Skoda Octavia. What oil is better to pour? Original vag oil - cat.number

The engine on a Skoda car is subject to wear and deformation over time. To prevent this process, it is necessary to correctly select motor lubricant according to the tolerances and specifications from the manufacturer. quality oil will not only ensure the functional performance of the system, but also protect it from damage.

What are the tolerances for Skoda different models

Skoda Rapid

The Czech manufacturer indicates in the manual a VW Long Life III lubricant with a viscosity of 5w30 for models Skoda Rapid with powers and volumes of engines:

  • 122 HP TSI - 1.4 l;
  • 86, 105 HP TSI - 1.2 l;
  • 105 HP TDI - 1.6 l.

For more powerful power units, the manufacturer recommends VW Special Plus 5w40 oil. It is poured into atmospheric engines installed on Rapid.

Factory in new car, released from the assembly line, they fill in Volkswagen branded grease with tolerances of 502 and 504. When performing maintenance, specialists can offer motor oils with other specifications and tolerances. For example, Skoda service centers can offer oils from the Shell, Mobile or Castrol brands.

Skoda Octavia

In the Octavia A5 power units, the manufacturer recommends pouring synthetic-based products. As for tolerances, they must comply with VW 502/504/505/507. Viscosity - 5w40, 5w30. However, when performing maintenance, 0w30 grease is poured. Car enthusiasts prefer:

  • Motul 8100;
  • Castrol Edge;
  • Shell Helix Ultra;
  • Neste City Pro;
  • X-Klin;
  • Liquid Moly.
  • TDI 2.0 - 3.8 l;
  • TDI 1.9 - 4.3 l;
  • TSI 1.8 - 4.6 l;
  • TDI 1.6 - 3.8 l;
  • MPI 1.6 - 4.5 l;
  • TSI 1.4 - 3.6 l;
  • TSI 1.2 - 3.6 liters.

According to technical regulations, an oil change is carried out after 15 thousand kilometers or earlier, depending on operating conditions.

Octavia 7

The operating instructions indicate that for vehicles with a flexible drain interval, it is necessary to fill in oils with VW 504 approvals if the engine has a volume of 1.2-1.4-1.8 liters and is equipped with a turbine.

In turbocharged engines with volumes of 1.6 and 2.0 per diesel fuel it is recommended to fill VW 507. If a limited interval is set on the car, then for gasoline internal combustion engines greases with 502 tolerances are suitable.

The Czech manufacturer pours into cars by default Skoda Octavia 7 Castrol oil Edge 5w30. It complies with Long Life III tolerances, which may be indicated on the canister in conjunction with the specifications from Volkswagen.

After passing the maintenance, motorists prefer to change the branded lubricant to alternative analogues from manufacturers:

  • Mobil;
  • shell;
  • Motul.

The viscosity index is selected based on the operating conditions and temperature indicators of a particular region.

Speaking about the frequency of replacement, it is worth proceeding from the applied tolerances. It is best to change the car oil after reaching 10-15 thousand kilometers.

Volumes of liquid poured into motors:

  • TSI 1.2-1.4 - 4.2 l;
  • TSI 1.8 - 5.2 l;
  • TDI 1.6-2.0 - 4.6 liters.

Octavia Tour

The replacement interval for Octavia Tur ICE systems is from 10 to 15 thousand km, depending on operating conditions. The manufacturer recommends synthetic-based lubricants with an index of 5w30 or 5w40, depending on the parameters and engine size.

The amount of oil to be filled is up to 5 liters. With regard to tolerances, the product must comply with VW 503-504. Tolerances of older versions of VW 501-502 may also be suitable.

Skoda Superb

The Volkswagen automobile concern uses 5w30 synthetic-based factory oil for internal combustion engines Skoda Superb. It meets Long Life III VW approvals. This is practically the same lubricant as Castrol SLX. In service centers, synthetic-based lubricant from the manufacturer Shell is poured into the motors.

You can fill in motor oils from other manufacturers. The main indicator is the compliance of tolerances 502-504 and product viscosity classes 5w40, 5w30. Also, do not forget about the frequency of oil changes recommended for ICE systems equipped with turbocharging. If the Superb model has an engine size of 2.0 TDI, then it is better to use Castrol 5w30 with a tolerance of 507.

Grease with VW 504 approvals must be used when the mileage reaches 15 thousand km. Some motorists prefer to replace after 10 thousand km. The regulation allows an earlier replacement if the car is operated in harsh climatic conditions.

Skoda Yeti approval

For power units installed on Skoda Yeti, original GM Dexos 2 grease is suitable. It meets VW and LL approvals. The following tolerances are indicated on the packaging:

  • VW 504;
  • VW 501;
  • VW 502.

Service centers for 1.6 MPI atmospheric ICE systems running on gasoline fuel use Shell Helix or Castrol Edge with viscosity indices of 5w30. Such power units comply with VW 502/504/505/507 approvals. Experts also suggest pouring motor lubricants from manufacturers:

  • Motul 8100 5w40;
  • Total 9000;
  • Liquid Moly.

When choosing, special attention should be paid to specifications and viscosity. As a rule, 4 liters are used for Skoda Yeti engines. Replacement is carried out based on climatic conditions. The recommended frequency is 10-15 thousand kilometers.

Oil in the internal combustion engine system Skoda Fabia

Engine fluid per model Skoda Fabia must have a VW 502-505 approval and a viscosity grade of 5w40 or 5w30. Recommended Castrol Edge.

You can also pour synthetic-based formulations with a viscosity index of 0w30. In Skoda service centers, experts use this oil for Fabia with an engine capacity of 1.4.

Often enough Skoda owners Octavia A5 and A7 question replacement intervals engine oil in your car, as well as how much and which one is better to pour. Also, the owners of these cars are concerned about oil consumption during operation. In this article, we will answer all questions regarding our own oil change, as well as its choice, and we will touch on the topic of repairing the level sensor in the engine crankcase.

First, a little about motors

Skoda Octavia A5 and A7 cars were equipped with 1.4, 1.6 and 1.8 liter engines, the injection systems on these engines were called mpi and tsi. Reliability and ease of maintenance have a positive impact on the reviews of the owners. Repair of these units becomes necessary after 300 thousand kilometers, and this is a considerable resource.
Few characteristics:
  • The Skoda Octavia A7 1.4 tsi engine is turbocharged and has a power of 140 hp.
  • The Skoda Octavia A7 1.6 mpi engine is equipped with point injection, and its power is 110 hp.
  • On the Skoda models Octavia A5 Tour was equipped with a 1.8 tsi engine, with the help of a turbine, this engine has a power of 152 hp.
  • The same power unit was installed on the A7 Tour model and has more power - 180 hp.

The choice of oil for cars Skoda Octavia

As we know, the oil change interval is 10 thousand kilometers, only at such intervals the engine of your Skoda Octavia A7 Tour will serve you for many kilometers without breakdowns. Of course, such reliability will be achieved if original solutions for Skoda Octavia are used.

Skoda Octavia 1.6 and 1.8 tsi engines are very picky about the quality of the oil, in order to answer the question of what kind of oil to fill in, we will give some tolerances regulated by the manufacturer.

  • VW 504
  • VW 502

It is these tolerances that must be indicated on the label of the canister with the new liquid. When using high-quality fluids, Skoda Octavia 1.6 engines - 110 forces and 1.8 will last more than one hundred thousand kilometers.

If low-quality materials are poured, lubricant consumption can increase significantly.

So that you know which oil is better to pour, we will answer - the original one. It is the original lubricant that performs its functions as well as possible, thereby protecting engine parts from increased wear.

Getting Started

To get started, we need a certain set of tools, which consists of a set of screwdrivers, as well as socket heads for 13 and 17 millimeters and a ratchet.
  1. To carry out such work, it is necessary to use a viewing hole or a car lift.
  2. Unscrew oil filter using a special puller, then install a new filter and tighten it.
  3. Dismantle the plastic crankcase protection, then unscrew drain plug and wait until all the liquid has drained into the container.
  4. It is advisable to carry out this work on a warm engine, since the viscosity of the lubricating fluid decreases, thereby increasing its fluidity.

  5. Screw the drain plug, then mount the crankcase protection in place.
  6. Fill with fresh liquid, observing the level. Carefully check the level and limit the amount of oil poured. To know how much to pour, you must use the dipstick. This dipstick has divisions, on many cars the distance between the minimum and maximum is one liter.
  7. spin filler plug, then start the power unit and check that the lubrication system pressure lamp has gone out.
  8. Stop the engine and check the level again using the dipstick. If necessary, add liquid in small portions. Using this method, you will have better control over the amount of fluid being poured, and subsequently you will know how much lubrication your motor needs.
  9. If the liquid is at the minimum mark, it is necessary to pour about 400 milliliters, this should be done in several steps, filling the entire volume.

As soon as the level has reached a mark between the minimum and maximum, you should stop pouring liquid and this work can be considered completed.

Attention! If the engine of your car eats oil, you need to set the level to the maximum mark, and then carefully control the volume.


Solving problems with leakage and lubricant consumption.

If you find that your car's engine is eating grease, and the level is decreasing, you need to inspect the unit for leaks. Perhaps the volume sensor has become unusable and needs to be replaced.

Repair of the level sensor is not possible due to its design features. On motors A7 1.4, 140 forces, this malfunction occurs quite often. Therefore, the owners of 140 strong engine often complain that the motor eats grease, about 400 milliliters per 1000 kilometers. Do not be upset, you need to immediately inspect the crankcase for leakage of the level sensor, most likely the problem is in it.

In general, Skoda Octavia A7 1.4 tsi engines - 140 forces have a factory approval for lubricant consumption in the amount of 200-400 milliliters per 1000 kilometers. This consumption depends on the driving style of a particular driver, as well as the operating conditions of this vehicle.

To reduce lubricant and fuel consumption, A7 1.4 tsi - 140 hp motors should not be subjected to extreme loads. Moving smoothly without sudden accelerations, you will not only reduce lubricant consumption, but also protect your car from increased wear of rubbing parts.

Sensor repair

On the Skoda engines Octavia A7 1.4 tsi - 140 forces, as well as 1.6 mpi - 110 forces, the level sensor must be replaced in case of damage. The same picture is observed on a 1.8 liter unit. Of course, there are some cases in which repair makes sense.

To change this sensor, it is necessary to pour all the grease from the engine crankcase until it flows out completely, after which, having disconnected the connector, unscrew the three bolts securing this part in the desired position. After removing the sensor, it is necessary to thoroughly clean the contact surface, then install a new part and fasten it.

After installation new part it is necessary to replenish the amount of lubricant again.

This procedure is best combined with a scheduled oil change in the engine. After replacing this element with a Skoda Octavia A7 1.4 tsi - 140 forces, as well as 1.6 mpi - 110 forces, the lubricant consumption will decrease significantly, and you will not have to constantly pour decreasing lubricant.

In the event that the motor eats grease after replacing this part, most likely, it will be necessary to repair the entire unit. Perhaps the lubricant eats precisely because of the increased wear of the piston rings. Also, the motor eats grease after overheating or eats due to failure of valve seals. All these reasons can be at the same time, and then the power unit eats grease in huge quantities. Complex repair power unit comparable to half the cost of the entire car, and this is a considerable expense of finance.


Conclusion

My experience.
Previously, I poured LiquiMolly 5W30 TOP TEC 4200 LongLife III oil - the consumption was about 500 grams per thousand.

UPDATE 01/14/16
Now I switched to Shell Helix Ultra 0w30, tolerance 502 - consumption has decreased!
It was about 200 grams per thousand.

Specifications for oil from the Skoda owner's manual

When topping up, you can mix various oils together. This not applies to vehicles with flexible interservice intervals.

Filling volumes are given taking into account the replacement of the oil filter. Check the oil level when filling, do not fill too much.

For vehicles with flexible service intervals Only the following oils may be used.

To maintain the properties of the engine oil, we recommend topping up with oil of the same specification only. In exceptional cases, it is possible, only once, to add no more than 0.5 liters of engine oil of specification VW 502 00 (only gasoline engines) or VW specification 505 01 (diesel engines only).

Do not use other engine oils - risk of engine damage!

When to change oil

In severe operating conditions in a large city or very dusty areas Recommendation for changing the oil and filter every 7 - 8 thousand km.

Checking the oil level

The vehicle must be on a level surface and the engine must be still warm after operation.
- Stop the engine.
- Open the hood.
- Wait a few minutes for the engine oil to drain back into the oil pan and remove the dipstick.
- Wipe the oil dipstick with a clean cloth and insert as far as it will go.
- Remove the oil dipstick again and check the oil level.

Oil level in zone A- Do not add oil.
Oil level in zone B- You can add oil.

The oil level may then rise to zone A.
Oil level in zone C- You need to add oil.
It is sufficient that the oil level is in zone B.

Engine oil consumption is normal. Depending on driving style and operating conditions, oil consumption can be up to 0.5 l/1000 km.

In the first 5,000 km, oil consumption may be even higher.
It is therefore essential to check the oil level regularly, preferably at every fill-up or after a long drive.

When the engine is under heavy load, such as long motorway driving in the summer, when towing a trailer or driving in high mountains, it is recommended to keep the oil level in zone A - but not higher.

When the oil level is low, it lights up. control lamp in the instrument cluster. In this case, check the oil level with the dipstick as soon as possible. Add the appropriate amount of oil.

CAREFULLY
The oil level must never be higher than zone A.
Risk of damage to the exhaust gas aftertreatment system!

If in this situation you cannot add oil, do not continue driving. Stop the engine and seek professional help, otherwise serious engine damage may result.

Adding engine oil
  • Check engine oil level » see above
  • Unscrew the engine oil filler cap.
  • Pour in oil of the recommended brand in portions of 0.5 liters.
  • Checking the oil level.
  • Carefully screw on the oil filler cap and insert the oil dipstick as far as it will go.

Do not add additives to engine oil- this can lead to serious damage to engine parts! Damage caused by such causes is not covered by the warranty.

Useful oil change tips

Drain the oil after driving while the engine is still warm. If the engine is cold, start and warm it up to operating temperature. Fill with the same brand of oil as the oil that was in the engine.
If you still decide to change the brand of oil, flush the lubrication system flushing oil or oil of the brand to be used. To do this, after draining the old oil, fill in new oil to the lower mark on the dipstick. Start the engine and let it run for 10 minutes Idling. Drain the oil and only then change the oil filter. Now you can fill in new oil to the required level (up to the top mark on the dipstick).
