The first generation Octavia shares a platform with the Volkswagen Golf IV, and technically both machines are almost identical. But the Czech car initially cheaper and more accessible content. It turns out that unlike Golf he really love people
The appearance of Skoda Octavia Russians reacted quickly and adequately. The car, we call it, go. There was no huge agiotage, but sales were very active. And this phenomenon has a simple explanation-Czechs offered German quality and reliability (in essence, Octavia is the same Golf) at an acceptable price. The car existed in two versions: 5-door hatchback and station wagon. The main consumer decency is a very large trunk, with a nominal volume of which is an impressive 528 l. Moreover, the hatchback looks like a sedan, which is also particularly appreciated by our compatriots. The vehicle was released from 1996 to 2010. Moreover, since 2004, Octavia Tour-in parallel with the second generation. In the autumn of 2007, production was organized in Kaluga where there was a large assembly of the model. In addition to the [ [ hatchet]], the [ [ universel Combi]] was assembled here, and even the rechargeable modification of RS with 180-strong turbotorsAnd exactly a year ago, the Skoda Octavia Tour was welding. The arc version of the car was distinguished by a more brutal grille of the radiator, the "misty" front optics and other bamperameModifications, besides the hatchback, we have a fairly widespread and universal Octavia Combi, which accounts for about 20% of the total number of machines offered for sale. Combi is much more likely than the sedan to meet with a four-wheel drive transmission. Skoda Octavia CombiA is a rare guest in the domestic market. This practical car is being produced as a hatchback and a station wagon. Under the bonnet, it has a 1.8-litre turbomotor (180 l. ), which only combines with a 5-speed manual gearbox. The Skoda Octavia RSLAG MLONCHOMOA in our secondary market the dealer versions of the first generation model and Skoda Octavia Tour dominate our secondary market. Approximately one tenth is accounted for by the copies imported from Europe. There are also 4x4 variants, and occasionally versions with an RS index. Octavia's "Empty" is not enough on the market. The first owners usually ordered different options. Therefore, without a "gentlemanly" set of electric glass and mirrors, air-conditioner or climate control, the car meets the second owner and pick of used Octavia, despite its initially modest equipment. For example, the standard version of LX in the dormant machines consisted only of a steering wheel drive, adjustable for height and departure of the steering column and audio preparation. On the other side, the GLiX variant additionally implied a driver's airbag, an electric power transmission, a front glass and a mirror with heating, fog lamps and tinted windows. SLX was added to the previous ABS, passenger airbag, climate control, and cast wheels. After the 2000 restartling, the levels of the pick became Classic, Ambiente and Elegance respectively. The salon of the dormant version is distinguished by a large peak, in half of the front panelistone also the lukus version of Skoda Octavia in the version of Lauurin & Klement, which included a leather interior with a tree, xenon lights, a hatch with an electric drive. "Only four-cylinder engines" were used for the seat of the used Skoda Octavia. Benzinovs were represented by power units of 1.4 l (60 and 75 l. ), 1.6 litres (75, 100 and 102 l. ), 1.8 l (125 and 150 l. -with a turbocharging) and 2 litres (115 l. c. ). There were also 1.9 litres of diesel, with an atmospheric power of 68 litres. and with a turbocharged yield of 90, 100 and 110 l.c. Standard transmission for all engines-5-speed manual transmission and proposed for motor order 1.6 (102 l.) and 2 l 4 is a vending machine. 16-valve. 1. 4 MPI has appeared in the gamma since 2000 and was installed mainly on the budget versions-modifications with such engine were actively purchased in due time by corporate clients Skoda Octavia Tour, with engines 1.4 l (75 l. ), 1.6 litres (102 L. c. ), 1.8 l (150 l.) and 1.9 litre turbodiesel (90, 100 and 110 l. ). The first time was mechanical and automatic transmission, and since 2009 it was only the MCP. All the aggregates were German. The most popular are the 1.6-litre "quartet". Not the last one in the popularity rating is a 1.8 litre turret tour. The first is simple by design and has proven to be durable and reliable. Smaller problems are mainly due to the low quality of domestic fuel and the anti-holdout reagents that enter into the electrical connectors, pads and blocks, resulting in malfunctions. For example, the lambda-probe signal is distorted from dirt and salt. Over time, it will get out of service (replacement-4,500 rubles). ). The temperature sensor of the coolant temperature sensor (1990) cannot withstand the attacks on the wheels and the "unclean" road. ). The "bodny" gasoline will sooner be killed and the thermometers will be filled with a total of 4250 rubles ($1). ). All engines have a actuator GRM mechanism. The reel is being updated with skates (3500-7250 rubles). depending on the engine). Every second replacement, along with the pump. Turbo engine loves free breathing and needs to be regularly replaced by air filtration All these problems are also more common for the 1,8-litre engine. If you do not adhere to the air filter replacement procedure, it will be time to update the air flow meter, which for this engine costs about 8,000 rubles. And driving with defective candles may soon lead not only to their renewal, but also to the replacement of the ignition (1,500 rubles). ). True, the main problem with motors 1. 8T on Passat, with Skoda Octavia engines not. Turbocharger (17,000-30,000 rubles) lives much longer, thanks to the better location of the oil pipeline to the bearings of the turbine. And don't forget to replace GRM straps in a timely and a timely one. km And that's the actuality for all the engines ...The gearbox is often driven by an engine whose resource can exceed 300,000. km The oil is littered with oil for the entire life of the service, but by 150 thousand tons. Km does not prevent it from being updated. Over time, it will be necessary that the adjustment of the rod or rope (with turbol-motors) when it is felt that the gears are being included with the force. The cordon on the 1,6-litre version is able to withstand 200 thousand tons. km, and in cars with motor 1. 8T is one and a half times less. The clutch of the clutch of the air clutch is sufficient for 200 thousand tons of clutch. km of mileage, and careful drivers and more. The replacement of the kit from the carrup of the nip bearings and the guest drive is about 12 000 roubles. This mechanism is capable of absorbing about 130,000 tons of tourists. The cost of replacing it is one and a half times the track-4-speed "machine" is also durable with the timely, once in 60,000. Km, oil replacement. A four-wheel drive with an electro-controlled sleuth Haldex, which redistributes the torque to the rear wheels when the front wheels are punctated, is very reliable. It was used successfully a couple of decades ago on VAG's models with a motor drive differently. It is necessary to change the oil with the filter every 30 thousand dollars to make the muft together with the car ". km travelled. HOUSING PART AND CHUNLER Octavia is based on the aggregate of Golf IV, and the machines are similar to the design of the johnson of the MacPherson front, and from the rear to the rear of the rolling beam. The mode is pretty strong. Also, Russian versions of Octavia since 1999 have been equipped with a reinforced suspension with up to 170 millimetre plates, as well as crankcase protection. The structure of the front suspension of Octavia, distributed to this class, is McPherson. It should be noted that most of its elements are strong and durable. For example, ball supports (about 2,000 roubles). (...) (...) (...) km They also change separately from the goldfish, usually the first in 30 ,000-50, 000 people. The total number of the stabilizers is 150 rubles. ). (...) (...) (a) A minimum of two times the maximum. About the same number of live pillars of the amorus racks (from 700 rubles) and the front bearings (35,000 roub). ). The ball supports are separate from the levers and are worth only 990 rubles. And they're hating a hundred thousand miles away. km The resource of the shock absorbers (from 5,800 rubles). The front and 3,900 rear positions) increased to 150 thousand. km The back suspension on the front-wheel drive does not deliver. The total income of the Russian President was RUB 81.71 billion. Up to 100,000 people were in the service. km However, after 1999, when cars for the Russian market were being equipped with a "package for bad roads", the resource of these parts has increased almost in the one-and-a-half of the semi-dependent suspension of the front-wheel-drive machines usually does not cause any trouble. The modification of Skoda Octavia with a 4x4 transmission assumed an independent rear suspension. It requires much more attention. 60 to 90 thousand The km of mileage will have to be updated with four lateral and longitudinal levers. In the helmsman's office for 150,000 people. a mile may be stuck in the steering gear. However, it is not expensive to replace it-only 13,000-18,000 rubles. Rouen arrowheads (780 rubles) Up to 100,000. km The period of service of the steering control and its components depends directly on the manner of driving and the overbearing road surface. In normal conditions of use, the rake holds up to 150 thousand tonnes. Km, the nozzle of the helmsman's arrowheads are simply soaked with 100 thousand kilometers. km The cost of the 100-ruble cost is estimated at 80 rubles For the brake system, the sealing rings of the brake lines will be corroded. It is advisable to change them forcefully when the brake fluid is updated. However, the remaining details are durable: the headpiece is usually 20-40 thousand pieces. (...) (...) Up to 100,000 live in the United km And rear drum mechanisms on 1.6-liter modifications can hold out for 100,000 miles. km The size of the trunk (528 l), which increases to an impressive 1328 l in the folded back seat, the hatchback-unconditional leader among the Skoda Octavia golf course models is protected from corrosion reliably if not taken into account the copies restored after the negligent garage repair. However, the rear door of the estate can rust rust at the place where it connects with the molding. The axis of the winders and the locks of the doors are also affected by road chemistry. In winter, electric windows often come out of the system because of sealants to the glass. The Octavivia panels are securely protected by two-way galvanic coating. So even the color of the paint on her body is not bloom. However, on the back doors of the envirotable universals, the paint coating over time is wielding with a plastic lining over the number plate, the Otava-Used Octavia-the choice of pragmatist. And that means that she's safe with her reliability, she's not onerous, and she has practically no weaknesses. Even the design is obsolete. And to buy "almost Golf" at an attractive price-Octavia is cheaper than the "German" of one year of issue and with a similar engine, about 25%-and is quite tempting. In addition, if it is initially a technically sound machine with a 1.6-liter engine and an MCP. Sergey Fedorov, Editor
