looking to buy a Skoda Fabia RS Wagon, what to look out for?

Good result. I have done about 3800km since the oil jet update and put 200ml in at one stage. That compares to between 200 and 500ml per 1000km previously.

So I finally took my RS wagon in for a dealer visit, as it had used about 4L of oil over 4000km of driving.

Oil consumption test commenced.

Also got an updated engine map for the idle issue. Hopefully that might address the single instance of the "EPC" light coming on too.

And they have ordered a new clutch for it as well, since the DSG has not been as good as it could be.

Kind of expected some or all of these issues, so no concerns here. I love the car. Goes great, very comfortable and the extra space of the wagon is a ripper.

Occasional rough idle on cold start.

The fix worked mostly, though it still seems to do it sometimes but not as severely.

I have since had my oil squirters replaced since this post, and the clutch change improved the DSG operation though I still reckon its not as good as it could be. Definitely not a patch on the 6 speed in our diesel golf

I got told it was the cats warming up, another time it was injectors warming up.
ive had the epc light come on once and that was over 40k ago.


Clutchpacks done few weeks ago and tbh it still shudders on hill starts worse than it did new.
