Skoda Octavia Oil Change - All Filters and Service light Reset

[@BenState]

Put a plastic bag (without holes) around the oil filter housing prior to removal. keeps the mess down.

[@oystonout8924]

Great informative video. A lot of videos are painful to watch but this was easy to watch, listen and learn. Parts are being researched now to do the fuel, air and pollen filters. Many thanks

I drove a Skoda rental car while in Germany and I could swear I was driving a BMW. I liked the car. Nice job editing this one. It was a joy to watch.

You came to Germany and didn't come around to say hello !!! Probably busy having too much fun in the Autobahn😁😜 ... They are solid motors Wyatt super reliable and nowadays the inside probably nicer than BMW, Thanks mate i appreciate

Service reset is done buy holding trip button in with ignition off, holding it down and turn ignition on then release and follow up buy pressing again when prompted.

[@tonyknights1]

Excellent tutorial, just followed it to the letter and completed the service without any problems. Many thanks for sharing the knowledge, it's much appreciated!

[@janjan1667]

Beware, there is one significant problem! Since the cabin filter is horizontal and there is dirt on the top, you are not able to pull the filter out so that the dirt does not fall directly into the fan! And there, at best they just rattle, at worst they make a bigger mess. Always when replacing, you need to use a sheet metal jig that slides under the filter before removing it! It can be bought, but of course you can just make your own. That's what the debris that gets collected during the change attacks. It's a hassle, but it's true. I don't know why the designers didn't use a vertical fan like they used to. So watch out for that!

[@kevinbaird7277]

Excellent video, i have to do this job tomorrow on my Superb 3V with this engine, the oil filter was easier to get to on my last Superb 3T, it being on top, now they put it underneath, crazy.

Mmmmm genuine parts 😎 Nice job mate, the old filters looked to be not too filthy. That's a well looked after car 👍

[@CarsExposed]

The owner was splashing the cash on this one 😁, not really believe or not it's cheaper to get VW genuine service parts rather than aftermarkets .... The filters are always in good shape with this one, I service this Skoda every 3 months or so changing the air filter oil filter and oil, and every 6 months all filters ....Cheers mate👍👍👍

You must fill the tank of fuel filter with electronic comand of the fuel pump.

[@jboland1192]

some do, some dont

[@cooolmanko]

What I am doing is sucking out all fuel around filter, wipe everything put in new filter and top up diesel from can and then close

[@BenState]

just open and close the driver's door with the key out of the ignition. this will prime the system and you'll hear it.

[@xCain69x]

Awesome job mate!

[@kapilarora897]

Hi , fantastic video very helpful. Can u please tell what size extension bar and wrench do we need for oil filter ?

[@djpetuh]

Thanks for the great video. But these still one question. How to change the oil in the gearbox. The service people say it is kinda "not necessary", however there's an opinion you still had better do it after some 80-100 000 km. For me it sounds reasonable. But I have no idea how to refill the gearbox oil. You can easily find the drain plug underneath the gearbox, but I cannot find the refill plug.

[@CoolDude-tz5co]

Steeldime A I got my local mechanic to change the gearbox oil at 85k miles. He said the oil that came out looked very dirty, well worth doing at a cost of around €30, will be changing it again soon after experiencing gearbox problems in previously owned non-Skoda cars.

[@Funky_Geek]

Having done the fuel filter myself on VAG cars, you’re supposed to use your software (e.g VCDS) to prime the new fuel filter before you start it. If you don’t, you risk starving the high pressure fuel pump which can lead to premature wear and issues.

[@brando261]

Or if you don't own a VCDS as a get around, you could fill the chamber with Diesel additive, or fresh diesel to avoid air getting into the system. I just use a diesel additive which helps clean out the injectors at the same time.

[@BenState]

or open and close the driver's door a few times.

Nice one, but what about the dsg oil and filter?

[@amerb6231]

Nice and thanks bro! 😊

[@aim71ork]

Did you have much trouble refitting the damper on the glove box.. I found a pain . End up using a long handle flat screwdriver to snap back in.

[@InfiniteEchos]

Nice, clear, easy-to-follow vid. ..thanx for the upload. Quick question: in the new oil filter box there's 3 items: filter, large rubber o-ring/seal [both mentioned] and a small, separately bagged, rubber o-ring [not mentioned here] ..what is this last item for? Thanx in advance 👍🏻

[@TheOpenboater]

The small o ring is for the drain plug on the filter housing. The plug is in the middle at the bottom of the housing and should be removed before you take off the housing as it allows you to drain any oil from the filter.

[@EXOVCDS]

Skoda pollen filter access seems easier than VW. =)

Hi mate. Hanging fuel filter looked starightforward providing right size used - but is there anything that could go wrong? Heard someone said mpg dropped after he’d done it

Oyston Out hello mate Straightforward indeed super simple, I guess the only thing that could go wrong is leaks perhaps but would be pretty obvious because the smell etc and it would affect miles per tank... otherwise it shouldn’t affect mpg unless O2 sensors aren’t working properly or not changing the air filter I guess 👍 cheers

Thanks mate, Ideally every service remembering that we are dealing with preventive maintenance, realistically tho yes every other service that’s what I do, the fuel filter still looks in very good condition at that point ... but we also have to take in consideration how often the service is getting done, personally I service my cars every 10k miles ... cheers

I'd prefer to see the remaining diesel removed from the housing as it can contain water and grit. The filter can then be installed dry and the system filled via the pump running for 30 seconds using VCDS or other software.
