Superb Maintenance Schedule

[Fluffy]

bros,

 

anybody know the what should be service at each service interval?

 

Oil change at every 15,000km right? together with oil and air filter change.

 

when to change ATF?

when to change brake fluid?

when to change timing belt + water pump?

 

anything else need to change?

 

anybody know where skoda has a detailed maintenance scheduled checklist?

 

thx

What I can remember:-

ATF and brake fluids change at 60K.

Timing belt at 90K.

Spark plugs at 60K.

 

Think air filter need not be changed every 15K.

Pollen filter probably change annually.

 

Will try find the detailed schedule obtained in 2005.

The wonderful thing about the Skoda Superb is that it is rather low maintenance and bullet proof engine - especially when you take good care of it.

You can if you want to but following the recommended change intervals is quite good already.

when to change ATF?

60,000 km - I just did mine. Now it purrs again...silky smooth ride when gear changes.

when to change brake fluid?

60,000 km - Just did mine.

when to change timing belt + water pump?

If not wrong 90-100k onwards, quite alot of work involved for this.

anything else need to change?

Battery, sparks (recommend every 30k, some say 15k - up to you)

Air Filter - K&N is not bad but noisy, I reverted back to OEM filters.

Hi bro,

 

Oil Change: Recommended interval is at every 15,000km. However if your driving pattern consists of a high percentage of start-stop driving, you can consider performing the change at ever 10,000km.

 

ATF: 60,000km is a safe interval. I have known of a few Audi A4 and Passat owners who change at every 40,000km to 50,000km interval, to ensure that a gearbox change (due to premature failure) is not warranted.

 

Brake fluid: every 3 years or 60,000km whichever comes earlier. If the brakes feel extremely spongy, it is a clear indication that the fluid must be changed.

all this years, I've always wondered whether the wkshop does all these checks ...

[Simpleman]

We all can continue wondering till the cows come home.

 

Key point is: VISUAL CHECK!

See only lah!

See clearly or check thoroughly is another matter.
