Octavia A7 problems. The new generation of Skoda Octavia (A7) - there is no limit to perfection. Luggage compartment Skoda Octavia

Many owners note that Skoda Octavia is an incredibly reliable and unpretentious car. However, even such a reliable and verified machine is not completely devoid of some faults and problems that can suddenly wait for each owner. Today we will deal with the cause of most faults A5 and A7 and learn how to quickly find a source of problem.

Electrician

One of the most sensational and frequent problems of the A5 and A7 owners is a bug of airbags that occurs, on average, on every second furrowing spaces of auto roads. The airbag error occurs when the car often goes in a wet climate, or has some marriage into the details supplied from the factory.

An octavia security system error can manifest itself in the form of an appropriate signal lamp located on the dashboard. As a rule, errors in the operation of a particular airbag sensor occurs already at the start of the engine - when the computer checks all the electronics and internal intelligence.

Both on A5 and on the A7 of the fault error of airbags serves the wrong job electronic contactslocated in the middle rack of the door. It often turns out that in wet weather, water penetrates into the wiring, and the wires connecting the side sensor of the airbag shock with the wiring of the power supply, zerify and stop properly in contact with the places of compounds.

In this case, the owners of Skoda Octavia A5 come as follows.

• The corrugation from the front door is removed, and the interpretation of airbag wiring terminal is removed. As a rule, the scurvous wires can be seen immediately.
• In order for the airbag error to leave, it is worth cleaning the compounds of compounds with a special spray, which solurate the oxide and will lead the A5 and A7 wiring.

Climatic installation

Unfortunately, the error associated with the operation of airbags is not the only problem that can wait for the owner tour. Often, the owner faces outsiders in the salon, which was not there before, and cannot immediately find the source of unpleasant sound.

One of the most commonly encountered foreign sounds in the cabin is a loud, characteristic whistle. The owners were noticed that if such a problem was such a problem quite often, then on A5 and A7, she was practically sled.

Nevertheless, the manufacturer has failed to completely exclude this problem, and gradually the owners have learned how to fight it quickly.

If a distinct whistle is heard in the cabin, something resembling creak, then it is certainly about the faulty working stove engine.

Why does such a problem arise with what it is connected with?

The answer to this question is simple and obvious. The car at its work is constantly facing the penetration of dirty air coming from the outside. To combat the current situation on the tour there is a whole system of filters that protects the engine, climatic installation and fuel injection system from premature clogging and failure.

The stove is not an exception to the rules, and for its proper work on A5 and A7, as well as on the older version of the tour, constant cleaning of air from dirt and extraneous particles should be ensured. Unfortunately, this important condition is not always observed, and if this situation was somehow solved on Skoda Oktavia A5 and A7, then the filter may simply be available on the tour version. Thus, gradually the dust is settled on the motor, the lubricant is abruptly, and the mentioned foreign sound appears.

This nuisance for Skoda tour is solved "in the forehead".

• First you should disassemble the stove and clean it carefully from dust. It will not be superfluous to apply the pressure of the air and the compressor, it will provide better cleaning.
• Next, the system lubricant and its assembly is made.
• In addition to install salon filter From A5 or A7, the components of domestic production can be applied as an alternative.

Suspension

Riding in bad roads It may not affect the state of some suspension elements. Most often, such details such as shock absorbers, silent blocks and springs come out, which take the lion's share of load and quickly lose their properties.

In the case of Skoda, the details that have factory marriage, imperceptible cracks may further fail, and make themselves known completely suddenly.

One of the similar problems has a stabilizer rack. Their fault shows a characteristic knock, which is coming from below. Fast diagnosis and replacement of the warranty, as a rule, helps. Otherwise, the reason is to look elsewhere.

Summing up

Despite its reliability and unpretentiousness, the elefbeck from the Skoda has some characteristic problems that require operational repairs. If the source of the problem is detected on time, it will be possible to avoid more serious and expensive repair and enjoy the ownership of Skoda for many years.

Skoda Octavia Third Generation.

Oddly enough, the premiere of the new Skoda Octavia. A7 3 generations passed quite calmly. There was no excessive public attention to the new Czech. Perhaps this happened because of the outreach output of the model (competitors released Oktavia classmates for half a year - a year earlier). But in any case, the new third Skoda took its own sales for the same months - as much as 54% of the total number of cars sold Czech brand in Russia fell to a new octavia A7!

In Europe, sales started in the fall of 2012, and in our country Skoda Octavia A7 came in the spring of 2013.

To say that the car has changed a lot for the better - the owners of the previous generation will be offended. And correctly do, because the 2nd generation still looks quite fashionable. But the third generation of Octavia became completely different - faceted that.

The exterior of the novelty from Skoda

This car is bright in its own way and on the roads allocated from the total mass. He is falling back to find out what kind of brand it is. Aggressive stripes on the hood and sides of the car are very well. The design has become more predatory and sharp. In the glance of headlamp reads the challenge to all competitors. Yes, they, by and large and no.

Octavia is clearly the leader in its C-class as a dimension (4659x1814x1461mm) and by the number of functionality, which in it so much that all together it pulls on the class above.

The new Mkube modular platform (MQB), on which Octavia is built is also native to Golf and Audi A3's Volkswagen. And very well showed itself as in soothing qualitiesAnd subject to the capacity of the cabin. After all, compared with the previous generation, the wheelbase has become longer by 108 mm (2685mm).

At the same time, Octavia 3 generations "Losealed" by 102 kg, thanks to the use of new materials.

Road clearance A7 is 155 mm, this is a completely comfortable indicator for a car.

The car icon also underwent changes, from the green with the inscription of the brand, he was transformed into a chrome-plated, and the inscription and removed at all. And now he settled in a comfortable niche of the radiator lattice.

Luggage compartment Skoda Octavia

By the type of body OCTAVIA Liftbek. That is, it looks like a sedan, and the fifth door opens with glass. This type of body is a clear plus is a wide loading space and no partition between the trunk and rear seats, like a sedan. Accordingly, translate the refrigerator for new Octavia - not a problem. Moreover, the volume of the trunk is 568 liters, and with the folded rear seats It comes to record 1554 liters. More only.

Car interior

Salon Skoda A7 became a little wider - by 4.5 cm, and longer - by 6 cm. It had a positive impact on the foot space rear passengers. Although it cannot be said that in Octavia 2 generations were closely, by no means.

Perfectly worked out dashboard, all in their places, logically correctly located. Intuitively pull yourself towards that button you want to click.

On the quality of the assembly, it is even said indecent, as the Germans, and Skoda is already as 25 years old as part of the WAG concern, their cars are made perfect.

If we talk about the design of the cabin car, it is pragmatic, restrained and roads. Moreover, this applies both to the decoration of the chairs and torpedoes and to the general impression of the cabin.

Very comfortable landing with a bunch of chairs adjustments. BUT steering wheel It has a decent stroke reserve. This car is very comfortable.

Functional features of Skoda Octavia

Even in the most initial configuration, the Ekod Skoda has:

• 2 airbags
• On-board computer
• Electrically regulating mirrors and heat
• Regulation driver's seat in height
• The cooled compartment in the glove compartment and many other necessary and simply pleasant features.

And B. maximum configuration There will be:

• 220 volts socket
• Auto Parakshchik
• Maxi Dot.
• Start-stop system and many more.

Motor and transmissions of New Octavia

Concerning motor selection For Skoda Octavia, then the main 3: 1.4l - 150 liters. p., 1.6l - 110 liters. from. And 1.8l - 180 horses.

All gasoline engines, and diesel engines are not brought to Russia, due to the poor quality of diesel fuel in our country.

Transmission 5 and 6 stroke mechanics are represented, 6th speed automata and DSG robot on 6 or 7 steps. In general, choose from what.

Complets W. new Skoda. Octavia is also three: Active, AMBITION and STYLE.

Summing up, I will only say that this car is designed for comfort conjugated at speed. Therefore, if you like long-term travel on weekends and comfort at daily trains around the city - this is your car.

This car has gained love and respect among car owners of all CIS countries. This is not surprising, because it provides many years to ensures the most favorable ratio between prestige and price! So that new model Skoda Octavia A7 (about the previous one - we wrote), you can not doubt, will not master the predecessors, for it has absorbed all the best and has become even better.

Reviews about Skoda Octavia:

Exterior:

• It is made in the best traditions concern Volkswagen.. Smooth lines, deliberate modesty, successfully combined with style, charisma and solidity - this is exactly the impression produces a new A7. In profile, it is very similar to the sedan, the branded grille of the radiator is not doing anywhere, the modest and solid feed is decorated with the same lanterns. True - "just ingenious!".
• The wagon is less popular, but created according to the same principles - rationalism at the head of the image.

• However, such officials can come to the soul far from all. Classic and, to some extent, fresh design clearly do not like the fans of eccentric and stylish sports cars From Japan and France, although in relation to the dynamics of Octavia, there can be some of them from them ...

Engines:

Traditionally, a wide range of power aggregates is presented for the German auto industry, among which there are gasoline and diesel.

Opens a list of 1.2 liter "gasoline". Despite the modest volume, its characteristics are impressive - due to the turbocharging the power of the motor is 105 liters. C, and torque - 175 nm! Moreover, it is already available with 1400 revolutions. It accelerates cars to hundreds for 10.3 seconds, which is very good for such a modest volume. Even with him at the crossroads do not have to be peering into the leader foot.

Next comes turbocharged, petrol aggregate 1.4 liter volume. It is even more powerful - 140 "horses" under the hood and as many as 250 nm of traction, which is available with 1500 revolutions per minute! Not all competitors can approach such numbers. Acceleration until hundreds for 8.4 seconds. Impressive ... This is the perfect option for the city, and for the track.

Well, the most powerful and rapid engine was 1,8stSi. This "beast" gives 180 liters. from. And he has a diesel load of 250 nm, and it is available from the lowest - with 1250 revolutions! 7.3 sec. Up to 100 km / h! You can leave with him behind all the diluted zabyak on traffic lights. In addition, all these engines are not only powerful and tregile, but also very economical - gasoline consumption does not exceed 6.4 liters when driving in a mixed cycle.

A 2-liter, 143-strong turboodiesel, costs a few mansion. He just has a huge torque of 320 nm, and it gives the maximum thrust in the optimal operating range - from 1750 to 3000 revolutions. Fuel consumption is surprisingly low - only 5 liters in the cycle "City-Route". Nevertheless, despite the fact that it consumes "diesel", with overclocking to weave for 8.9 seconds. Such a door will leave behind many "gasolines".

• The disadvantages of such force aggregates include the complexity of the design and, as a result, high cost in operation and repair, as well as large risks when buying a car on secondary market - Octavia A7 may require a serious application of hand and means ...

PPP, suspension and drive:

With regard to the chassis, different versions have serious differences. The front suspension in all modifications is made according to the standard and time-tested McPherson scheme. As for the rear, then on modifications with an engine 1,8tsi is an independent multi-dimensional. In all other cases, a torsion beam is installed behind. In principle, even the beam fully justifies itself with respect to manageability, however, the presence of a top-end engine in 180 "horses" obliges ... a couple of such a suspension is available exclusively front-wheel drive.

With gearboxes, everything is not easy. The car can be equipped with either "mechanics" or "machine gun", but this is not a traditional hydrotransformer, but a preselective transmission, which provides dynamics and efficiency not worse, and sometimes the best than with the "handle". In addition, there are no characters characteristic for ordinary automatic transmission and pause when switching.

The number of gears in the manual transmission varies - if there is a 5-speed box with a 1.2 TSI motor, then all other gasoline modifications are completed with MT with 6 transmissions. What is the most interesting thing - the MCPP diesel engines is not provided at all.

DSG can also be different - gasoline models are equipped with a 7-range box, while for turbodiesel is available exceptionally 6-band.

• Such a variety of choice, of course, cannot but rejoice, however, for the owner, this abundance can turn into considerable spending. If K. mechanical gearbox There are almost never any questions, then there are more than enough preselective transmissions. With a long ride, the box is heated, jerks and shocks appear when moving from the 2nd to the 3rd gear. Besides, this type PPC extremely roads in repair due to the complexity of the design and relative novelty. Consequently, acquiring cars with DSG, the service must be passed exclusively at the dealer and not "fly" with warranty.

Interior:

The salon was performed in German solo and efficiently. As in appearance, officials dominate in the interior. The location of the controls is thought out as if the car makes each client individually - you can use the keys and disk controls with closed eyes. The seats are very comfortable, "tidy" is read perfectly, the steering wheel falls into the hands, behind the place is enough for three passengers, and 568 liters of baggage can be taken (1558 l with a decomposed rear sofa!).

• However, history with appearance can be repeated - many do not like such "dryness" and severity in the interior of Czech. Many noted that the word design for the creators of Skoda is alien. However, the design is an amateur.

Prices:

The price of this car starts from 589,900 rubles. It is so much asked for the basic version with a 1.2 TSI engine and MCPP. For DSG will have to give from 647 900 rubles. 1,4-liter modification will cost in sum from 764,900 rubles. for the manual transmission and from 804 900 rubles. for at. Top motor costs from 839 900 rubles. For the "mechanics" and from 879,900 per "automatic". Diesel price tag - from 924 900 rubles

The novelty was presented in December 2012. Thanks to the work of the main designer of the project, Joseph Kabana - the car managed to combine such important properties as bright appearance and practicality, which all previous generations Octavia were famous for.

If you compare the body of the liftback of the second and third generation, then the following changes are obtained in the overall sizes:

Length 4659 (+90 mm.);

Width 1814 (+45 mm);

Height 1476 (+14 mm.);

Wheelbase 2686 (+108 mm);

Road clearance 155 (-9 mm.);

The width of the front track 1549 (+8 mm.);

The width of the rear track 1520 (+6 mm.).

The volume of the trunk also increased - for a lifbecue to 568/1558 liters, for the station wagon (COMB) to 588/1718 liters.

In 2017, the Skoda Octavia A7 restyling was held, as a result of which some dimensions A little changed, so the length was increased to 4670 mm., And the width of the rear track began to have a value of 1540 mm. In addition, the headlights of the head lighting were changed, rear lights, front I. rear bumper, as well as the radiator grille. View comparative photos of versions of Octavia Dorestayling and restyling can be in force aggregates Change only one, engine 2.0 TSI now has 230 hp, against 220 hp on dorestayling. Car with 1.8 TSI engine can now be chosen either with front driveor driven on all wheels, which is implemented thanks to a multi-disc coupling and its control unit. According to the salon, the minimum changes.

Skoda Octavia III engines.

Dorestayling in the Russian Federation had 4 types power plants With gasoline fuel - this is one atmospheric 1.6 MPI (mod. engine CWVA.) with a capacity of 110 hp With 5800 rpm and three turbocharged 1.4 TSI (CHPA and CZDA) with a capacity of 140 and 150 hp At 5000-6000 rpm, 1.8 TSI (CJSA; CJSB) with a capacity of 180 hp At 5100-6200 rpm, as well as 2.0 TSI (CHHB) with a maximum power of 220 hp With 4500-6200 rpm. Diesel was represented by only one turbo engine of 2.0 liters. TDI CR (CKFC; CRMB; CYKA) with a maximum power of 150 hp at 3500-4000 rpm. As I wrote above, with the arrival of restyling - Installation 2.0 TSI added an additional 10 hp.

The most popular engine for 2017 can be called 1.4 TSI, which is the most optimal in such cumulative characteristics as the price, dynamics and efficiency. The engine is included in the EA211 power plant series, which came to replace the EA111 series. 1.4 TSI EA211, unlike the predecessor, has an aluminum block with cast iron sleeves, the diameter of the cylinders was reduced by 2.0 mm. to a value of 74.5 mm .. Crankshaft It became easier, the piston move is 80.0 mm. GBC has 16 valves, two distributive shaft. Unlike 1.4 TSI EA111, the exhaust manifold, which is integrated into the GBC itself, began to be located behind. On the versions of the engine 140-150 hp Phasemators are located both in the inlet and on the release (not to be confused with a version of 122 hp, on which the phase student is located only on the inlet). The drive is used as a belt, the replacement interval of 70-90 thousand km.

Of typical problems All gasoline engines can be noted the replacement on the early runs of the thermostat. Not rare cases of failure of the turbine actuator supercharged). Until September 2014, this problem was solved by a full-fledged substitute for the turbine, after the design made changes and the supervision regulator was made possible to replace without replacing the turbine. 1.6 MPI engines are the most simple of all, but also have problems - this is the failure of the air conditioner compressor, fuel pump, as well as increased oil consumption up to 0.5 l. / 1000 km. Details about the 1.6 MPI engine in various modifications can be read

Power plants 1.8 TSI and 2.0 TSI from the EA888 series have the timing chain drive. Mass supply these engines also did not bypass, but cases became single unlike previous generations of these motors. Let me remind you that the main cause of an increased engine appetite 1.8-2.0 TSI of the previous generation to the oil was the drainage holes mastery rings. As a rule, the beginning of the proceeding process began on runs 50-60 thousand km, full of drainage rings ended on runs 100-120 thousand km. The dealer, in this case, changes the pistons with the drainage of greater productivity. On the new 1.8-2.0-liter engines of Zhor Oil, judging by the profile forums, but these are single. In general, it is considered that the most troubled gasoline engines At Skoda Octavia A7 are 1.8-liter.

Good and turbo diesel 2.0 TDI CR. A fairly reliable and unpretentious aggregate. The only cant is the timing belt tensioner, which comes out of order ahead of time and asks for a replacement on runs 140-150 thousand km.

Transmission Skoda Octavia A7.

For engine 1.6 liters. There are two options: 5-st. MCPP and 6-st. Automatic transmission Motors 1.4 and 1.8 are already 6-st. MCPP or DSG-7. The manual manual transfers in both cases is considered very reliable, as a soldier, it is possible to note the early wear of bearings, which leads to a characteristic Voice, but in general, nothing critical. Hydromechanical automatic transmission is as very reliable, but up to 120-150 thousand km. Mileage may be a problem with a hydraulic block. About DSG7 (DQ200) already written a lot and read about it and but it is necessary to add that compared to early versions robotic boxes In this model, at our time, they significantly improved and the percentage of breakdowns decreased significantly ... Although of course, in my opinion, the amateur is a bad option for the calm operation of the car, especially if the warranty on the car is over.))) to restyling Skoda Octavia A7 2017 with engine 1.8 TSI with fully drive, as well as on 2.0 TDI CR and 2.0 TSI, install DSG6 (DQ250), which is considered more reliable, the main thing is timely replacement Oils (interval 50-60 thousand km), prevent the wheel slip and try to pushed in traffic jams less. DSG-6 resource when properly operation Can reach 200-250 thousand km. without autopsy.
