    Volkswagen platforms at Czechoslovakian prices?

    • +8

      There is no Czechoslovakia since 1993.
      And all Skoda cars sold in Australia are actually made in Czech Republic.

          Czechs actually hate with a passion the term Czechia …. most will still say Czech Republic …

    I’m a bit lost by your title. Are you saying you get the normal 5 year warranty then get another 7 years plus a bonus 2 years, totalling 14 years?

    • -4

      All Skoda cars have 5 year warranty. You get extra 2 years of warranty on TOP OF the 5 year warranty by buying the service packs.

      Is it really that hard to understand?

      • +7

        Calm down. When you write it the way you did, yes it is hard to understand. Guarantee I’m not the only one confused by your title.

        • +1

          How would you write it?

          • @ThisIsNotZeus: “Buy a 7 year service pack, get 2 years bonus standard warranty” or something like that.

            • +2

              @Slo20: Fair enough. I literally copied the title from Skoda website. English is my 2nd language so pardon me for it not being it by your standards.

              • +1

                @ThisIsNotZeus: I just had a look at your original title, and in no way did it sound like you were getting a 14 year warranty. Was perfectly obvious that you were getting a 2 year addition to the 5 year warranty.

                • @Mitch889: currently says: "Upgrade to a 7-Year Car Service Pack ($600-$1,850) and Get Extra 2-Year Car Warranty"

                  To me, this sounds like you upgrade to a 7-year car service pack that cost between $600 to $1850, and get extra two year car warranty free. So you end up paying between $600 to $1850 for 9-year car service.

                  oops. two year extra warranty. not car service.

                • @Mitch889: Cheers. Really didn't think it was that difficult to understand … I haven't changed the title. Moderators must have done that

    Wifey bought a Kamiq last year, it's a terrific car. Under $40k with all of the bells & whistles (and 5 year service pack) and drives like a dream. Drove the Karoq the other day while the Kamiq was getting serviced and it's also brilliant. Strangely I wasn't offered this upgrade offer at the Skoda dealership 2 days ago.

    • +3

      I have Kodiaq Sporling MY18.5! Love the car! I might be a bit biased as I come from the Czech Republic and Skoda DNA runs in our blood. LOL I wasn't offered the promo either when I did my last service in November. Found out about it through Skoda Fan FB group.

      • +2

        I’ve got the same vehicle - Diesel Sportsline. Absolutely hands down best vehicle I’ve ever owned. Car is due for a service in the next couple of weeks. I’ll make sure I do this. Thanks for posting!

        • +2

          Same. Love it! Velvet Red Kodiaq Sportline w all packs and sunroof. Love the car and cant wait for Enyaq to land down under. I've read in Skoda Fan FB group that some dealers are not aware of the promo so make sure you have the link ready to point them to it if needed.

          • +2

            @ThisIsNotZeus: Waiting for the Enyaq as well. Is there any rumours on when?

            • @mduncan2: There are rumours at the end of the year. There were number of local articles (un)officially confirming it and Skoda Australia social media accounts teased the electric Enyaq. Skoda in Europe can’t keep up with demand for the Enyaq and they apparently prioritising that market to the rest of the world atm. The Enyaq is receiving raving reviews across the EU.

    • +2

      We own the Karoq since august last year and they’re nice cars. We love it.

      • They are excellent cars. Skoda just had such bad name here.

        • +1

          I lived in Germany for a while and my cousin drove skodas. She told me the whole story and why she buys them. When VW bought them, they redid the entire manufacturing process and now they’re on a common platform. Very high quality cars for a fair price and the features are great.

  • -4

    Wait, so you need to pay for a 'top up' for 'service' to get Kia standard 'warranty'

    • +5

      You pay for SERVICE PACK … you get extra 2 year warranty on top of existing 5 year warranty. Comparing Skoda/VW and Kia is like comparing apples and oranges. LOL

      • You are correct, but not in the way you meant… Look at the latest JD Power reliability results and Kia/Hyundai/Genesis hold 3 of the top 4 spots - Volkswagen are a llloooonnnggg way back not even beating the industry average.

        • the vehicle warranty should give you that piece of mind and confidence … so if Skoda is able to match the warranty with the "opponents" what does that say about the reliability? Statistics are nice thing but they usually do not take into account lots of other variables which might affect the score.
          I am from Czech Republic. My family lives there. I have 2 distant uncles who work for Skoda. One in the factory and one in the HQ. From the inside knowledge I have Skoda Czech Republic is incredibly frustrated with the quality of cars coming from their Chinese factory and that's why they choose to send cars made in the Czech Republic into important markets. China is still the biggest market for Skoda in numbers.

      • I know right. Kias are fantastic. The major sticking point from me getting a Skoda is the shitty VW parts.

        • Each to their own.
          My family back in Czech republic always had Skoda, VW and Audi.
          My dad now drives Skoda Kodiaq RS, my mum VW Tiguan R and my brother Audi Q3. Never had an issue.
          Also my dad is keeping his 1996 Skoda Octavia 2.0 TDI with 1.2 million km on the odometer. He said he will never part him self with “her”. That car had never any issues or oil leak etc.

          Our decisions are mostly driven by experiences. So if you happy with Kia drive a Kia.

  • +4

    Will come in handy for those "unknown variables" with DSGs.

    • -4

      Nothing is perfect in life. Some things last forever and some eventually break. Thats life on earth for ya.

    • Are they dry or wet clutch in the Skodas?

    • It's the only thing I don't like about my 2012 Skoda. That DSG. Everything else has been superb

  • I let my Service Pack expire last year. Thinking I've missed the boat for this one even though I have still kept having my car serviced at the same dealer.

    • I’d give them a call. I had mine last service from my 3 year service back in November last year and today I called and was told that as long as the car had the service pack from new, have less then 60,000 km on the odometer and didn’t do your next scheduled service since your pack expiration you are still eligible to top up your service pack incl the 2 year warranty bonus.

  • If I bought a used Skoda that had some warranty + service pack left, can we upgrade to this?

    • There’s some fine print at the bottom of the page. One of the conditions is that it has to have no more than 60,000 km on the clock.

    • +2

      The PDF that outlines the T&Cs in more detail is here. From my reading, you can get a 2yr top-up pack if your Skoda is less that 58 months old (just shy of 5 yrs) and under 90,000kms.

  • +1

    It's a decent deal for the extra warranty only - the 7 x services at $415ea is reasonable, but not a bargain.

    As with most fixed price scheduled servicing, it doesn't include things you're likely to need in 7 years:
    - Brake pads & rotors (though fair enough calling it wear+tear)
    - Timing belt
    - Water pump

    Worth noting the 7 years tops out at 105,000, which is when the timing belt is due & the parts+labour for that is NOT covered.

    • +2

      Pretty sure most Skoda's don't use timing belts - Basically all chains

      • +1

        And water pump is apparently covered under warranty

  • +2

    Nah - change the oil yourself with gear from Supercheap/Repco for less than $100 a year. Keep $2k+ and pay for repairs if there is a need. I have had brand new cars that only saw their free 1000k service and then never went near the dealer again. In my experience modern cars very rarely have any issues before 100,000 km.

    It might also be worth noting that they have to fix your car no matter what for a reasonable period under the consumer guarantees in the Australian Consumer Law. The car industry in constantly misleading people into thinking they need to pay for warranties, get their car serviced at the dealer, etc. to be covered, when this is a lie.

    • +3

      I have a 2008 diesel Octavia 4x4 (bought in 2012) and do this. It has a timing belt BTW (I've changed it twice). It's a great car and very cheap to keep running. Not everyone has the facilities to DIY though.

  • For such service pack deals, what would happen if a car had been written off?

    Say you purchased today, but not using any of these extra service? Or only part of annual service being used?

    My guesstimate is total loss, unless you figured that into agreed insured car value. Anyone with insights?

    This is awesome - Thanks for sharing! Love my Skoda :)

    Skodas are crap.

      2020, global sales by the Volkswagen Group were down 15% to 9,305,400 vehicles worldwide. VW, Audi, and Skoda were the top-selling brands.

        Fine for Europe but in Australia VW/Audi/Skoda take it up the tailpipe for outrageous service costs once all the inclusions are done.
        You pay a pretty penny to service Audi's poor cousin but hey, you can go around telling everyone you have a 'European car'

        • +1

          You should really research the cost of service at others brands. Was just helping friend to make decision on car. Was deciding between Kia Seltos and Skoda Kamiq.
          Kia Seltos capped servicing for 7 years $2818
          Skoda Kamiq 7 year service pack $2100
          Skoda Karoq 7 Year Service Pack $2400

          I don't really know what "outrages" costs are you referring to

          • -1

            @ThisIsNotZeus: Fine if you sell it within the warranty period. A nightmare if you start paying after that.
            In this market it still has the aroma of the Eastern Bloc manufacturing that gave us the Favorit, the Lada Samara etc and since the VW takeover, it has morphed into a cheaper 'cousin perception'. For example why to Skoda owners always breathlessly try to convince others how good the cars are, while ignoring their faults? Are they trying to reassure themselves? Anyway, if you enjoy your Skoda, good on you and if your family is from the Czech republic that makes sense that you are nationalistically proud of them.

            • @King Tightarse: You could apply your logic to any other brand. Skoda are build on VW groups platforms and from the same parts. Parts, engines, platforms same for Skoda, VW, Seat, Audi etc. Car manufacturing in the Czech Republic was one of the biggest car manufacturing in the world before WW2. Because of the 122 years car manufacturing Czechs have incredibly skilful workforce. 80% of all car manufacturing is being exported. Just think about that number. It’s to no surprise that Hyundai has one of the biggest European factories in the Czech Republic and so does the TPCA (Toyota, Peugeot and Citroen).
              Anyway. There’s always someone that the Czech Republic is Czechoslovakia and we are part of Russia. I don’t really care what other think, the fact that Porsche and Skoda are the most successful brands out of the whole VW group in numbers cars sold speak for itself.

    Skoda servicing without prepaid packs is ridiculous ly expensive. 60k Skoda Superb $795. Front brake replacement ( pads and rotors) quoted at $1100. ( Vehicle serviced at 48k and supposedly less than 10k left.
    Who would prepay 5 years service pack with situation unknown for individuals regarding reliability and circumstances? Not me. Intend to sell before 5 year warranty expires. Waiting for oil light warning to come on at 8000 km like for the past 2 years. Warranty says oil use 0.5 litres per 1000 km to cover oil use of 4 cylinder petrol engines. Class action USA against Audi is catalyst for warranty oil figure. 7.5 litres use between services is within warranty. Yeah right. What rubbish.

    • Geez, if my car used 8 litres between services I would think the engine was completely rooted. If my NEW car did that, I would be asking for my money back as a 'lemon'
      That oil burns off into the environment too - not good.

    • There’s always someone with some negative experience. No matter what make the car is. Sorry to hear your trouble.
      My dad back home in the Czech Republic is keeping (for nostalgic reasons) his 1996 Octavia TDI with 1.2 million km on the clock. He’s refusing to let “her” go even though the local Skoda dealer wants to buy it from him for ridiculous amount and use it as a display. That car had never a single issue. Never needed oil top up. We always had Skodas. My dad currently driving Kodiaq RS, my mum Tiguan R and my brother Audi Q3. Neither of these cars had issues.

    Just extended mine, thanks for the post OP, I wouldn't have known about it otherwise

  • +1

    I've owned 3 Skodas now and they've been more reliable than the 2 Mazdas I owned. I reluctantly parted with my Octavia at 300k and still on the original clutch.

    As for the service packs, they represent good value if you want dealer servicing. They are used to up sell brakes, discs and other consumables with tend to be 30% or more compared to other independent mechanics. So you just need to be savy about it.

    For me I take it to my local mechanic who is a VAG group specialist. They are significantly cheaper than the dealer and I know for a fact they are far more thorough.

    • Agreed. At my last service I asked my Skoda service if they could replace my rotors and brake pads at the front if I supply mine. They were were happy to do for $200. I was quoted the same amount at independent tyre/wheel shops so it was no brainer.
