  1. Timing Belt Replacement Interval

    Why change the cambelt when it can be visual verified? See post #11. It's not a starship engine, it's a simply belt. I will extend my search to see if Seat Germany has this policy regarding timing belt. I understand, UK Seat has employees and they must be paid. So every penny is welcomed. Wish...

( This cambelt change at...

  10. Timing belt and Waterpump query

    @GTunney, I have the same engine on my Skoda Octavia 3, !.4 TSI 103kw, code CHPA. In the maintenance manual, for our engines, it 's not specified this interval for changing the timing belt.

I am not interested for more power, I am 50 years old so I have a peaceful driving style. That "min.95 RON" is marketing, it helps selling cars, that's...
  14. Cupra on normal 95 ron fuel

    I didn't understood why ONLY Skoda write in owner manual that using higher octane brings a few hp and low consumption and the other VAG manuals didn't mention about this increase hp/decrease consumption. I also feel this improvement, even though my engine has only 140 hp. @andycupra: You are...
  15. Cupra on normal 95 ron fuel

    Hi, I have a little dilemma. I read the Seat, Audi, VW owner manuals, forums from UK, France, Italy, Germany referring the recommended (best) petrol for your engine.

    Hi , Two months ago, I bought a Skoda Octavia 1.4 TSI 140 HP and since then, every morning (since day 1) when I start the engine first time or when the engine is cold (after 4-5 hours), I hear a strange(whining) noise (less than 1 sec.). I searched the forums in my country for people who have...
