Question 1

Which petrol engine is best in a used Skoda Octavia?

Accepted Answer

The 1.5 TSI is the all-rounder: four cylinders, usually 150 PS, and cylinder shutdown to save fuel on the motorway. The 1.0 TSI suits mostly shorter trips, while the 2.0 TSI is kept for the RS and 4x4 versions.

Question 2

How much road tax does a petrol Skoda Octavia pay in Luxembourg?

Accepted Answer

Its CO₂ figure × 0.6 × a band factor, which is 0.5 up to 90 g/km and rises by 0.1 per 10 g. A petrol Octavia therefore pays a third less than a diesel with the same CO₂ figure.

Question 3

What should I check on a petrol Octavia with a DSG gearbox?

Accepted Answer

The smaller TSI engines use a seven-speed dry-clutch DSG: check that it pulls away smoothly from cold and does not judder when manoeuvring. The 2.0 TSI pairs with a wet-clutch DSG, whose oil must be changed at set intervals.

Question 4

Which engines does the new Skoda Octavia petrol have?

Accepted Answer

The 1.5 TSI with 116 or 150 PS, manual or as an m-HEV mild hybrid with DSG, the 2.0 TSI with 204 PS, DSG and 4x4, and the RS with 265 PS. Each comes as a hatchback or Combi, in Selection or Sportline trim or as the RS.
