Since Xiaoming bought it in 2017, it has been more than two years since he unknowingly drove the car. After using it for more than two years, the overall feeling of the Octavia 1.6 displacement is still quite good. In addition to feeling a little weak in terms of overtaking and acceleration and the power after turning on the air conditioner in summer, other aspects such as space and quality have advantages over similar cars. Anyway, time flies so fast, and it’s time for maintenance again. Since there are not many kilometers to drive, he also set a maintenance cycle for him. He uses semi-synthetic engine oil for about 6 months or less than 5000 kilometers each time, which is still good for the car. This time, I still make an appointment for maintenance on Skoda’s online WeChat terminal, which is very convenient.
At 9 a.m., I drove to the pre-inspection area of the 4s shop, and the front desk staff issued a pick-up inspection form and a maintenance service order.
The front desk staff took protective measures for the car to prevent it from getting dirty.
There were few cars to be maintained on Monday, and soon the car was waiting at the workstation for maintenance work.
The maintenance master brought over the original accessories used for this maintenance
The maintenance master raised the car and first removed the oil drain screws to drain the oil.
Lower the engine guard while draining oil
Finally remove the oil filter
Take advantage of the spare time to drain oil to check the tires and replenish the tire pressure.
Deduct the gravel in the tire gap
After draining the oil, install a new filter and oil drain screws.
The maintenance master carefully adds new Castrol’s preferred semi-synthetic engine oil
After the oil is added, check the oil level on the oil dipstick and see that it is about 3/4 of the upper and lower limits of the oil dipstick.
The maintenance technician removed the cover of the air filter element above the engine and took out the old air filter element.
Put in new air filter element and tighten screws
Finally, use the computer to check whether the various data of the car are normal, and the maintenance is over.
While washing the car, I took advantage of the time to visit the original accessories display area, among which car models are my favorite.
Maintenance settlement list
This maintenance cost: Castrol semi-synthetic engine oil 288 yuan, original machine filter 108 yuan, oil drain screws 15.29 yuan, working hours 30% off, 161.7 yuan, air filter 71.09 yuan =644 yuan.

Service evaluation: The skills of the 4S shop masters and the service attitude of the front desk are also acceptable, with a comprehensive evaluation of 4 stars.
Summary: It is necessary to maintain the car on time. You can check the car to eliminate various hidden dangers and keep the car in its best working condition at all times. Car cars have begun a new charter.
