Today on many sports and cultural events, the photo on the Internet you can see the Skoda logo. However, it was not always. Before the unification with the group VW, the sales market was limited. Access to advanced technologies allowed to make a powerful breakthrough to the markets of Europe and the CIS countries. Skoda Octavia with the factory number A4 assigned to it became the key model with which began new story Plant.
Together with new generations of drivers appeared and updated cars Under this brand.
Now, at the mention of Skoda Tour and look at the photo, sustainable associations arise that it is quite simple, reliable and convenient to maintain the car for reasonable money. A wide network of service and spare parts that are very widely available to a wide range of users, made a tour popular. Love it not only as a family car. Appreciate Skoda Octavia A4 and as a car for commercial operation.
Design features
From the very beginning, the second wave of production was paid to ensuring security Octavia tour. On the one hand, it was supposed to express the car, and then it would be difficult to compete with the leaders. Therefore, the focus was made on improving the characteristics of passive protection of the driver and passengers. As can be seen from the photo, structurally body and the architecture of the power frame was composed in such a way that when the consequences are minimal. Separate A4 zones were designed as deformable to soften the blow without damaging the people inside the car. Steel frame and stamped spare parts are made of carefully selected alloys. Some bearing zones are additionally strengthened by amplifiers.
In front of the producer of Skoda stood a dilemma: which set of options and parts to use so that Tour turned out to be modern and sold. In this case, its cost should remain relatively affordable. The emphasis was made on the quality of the assembly in the simplicity of the design. We see in the photo that expectations were justified. Today, the tour has a persistent reputation of a product that cannot have flaws. There are practically no complaints after the sale and appeals about the factory marriage.
Engines
After entering the VW Group and the use of a new line power aggregates Skoda made a significant high-quality jump. The highest reliability and unpretentiousness of Tour engines, both diesel engines and gasoline, was appreciated by consumers. The proposed range and specifications made it possible to select a complete set on individually, based on personal preferences and economic considerations. And, judging by the photo, it was from what. Not so many high-profile cargoings could offer such spare parts as well as the number and variety of power plants. During the release of the model they were put on them the following enginesworking on both gasoline and diesel:
- AGU / ARZ / ARX / AUM line. 150-strong engines with an index of T. Finding a lot of 1.8 liters setting. Popularity was so high that it was not reasonably abandoned by this engine almost all the time of production Tour A4, that is, from 1996 to 2006. Modifications were assigned a new index, but in essence it is one unit, only constantly improved. Spare parts can be found without problems. 210 HM with a range of 1750-460 rpm.
- AEH / AKL. A4 cars were produced, completed with this engine, from 1998 to 2000. They liked the consumer due to excellent characteristics, its versatility, reliability and availability of spare parts. With a power of 100 liters. with. and the volume of 1.6 liters had 145 HM and 3800 rpm.
- Auq is not a diesel. One of the latest Tour engines of promising development, which moved into the next generation of Skoda tour. 235 HM at 5000 rpm in the photo looks impressive. This is not by chance, since spare parts and architecture VRS8 l. This made it possible to reach the power of 180 liters. with. and excellent dynamics. Such engines were equipped with octavia tour, close to their technical characteristics to the executive class.
- APK / AQY. Intermediate model of 115 liters power installation. with. With a volume of 2.0 liters, it was established on the tour from 1999 to 2001. Had 170 HM at 2400 rpm. There may be problems with repair, since not very widely popular is affected when searching for original parts. Spare parts of the factory release find it difficult.
- AZJ / AZH. Another engine that was used as in Skoda models Octavia Tour A4 and in the subsequent release of A7.
All aggregates using diesel have a standard 1.9 liter volume. However, as can be seen from the photo, they differ in design and technical characteristics:
- The SDI diesel is distinguished by the lack of a turbine, inline layout, direct injection of diesel fuel and the presence of 8 valves. With 4,200 revolutions, no more than 68 forces give out. Dynamics, like the maximum speed, very weak, 18.9 seconds accelerates.
- TDI Diesel has a design similar to the previous aggregate. True, the presence of a turbine allows you to produce 90 horses at 4000 revolutions. Accordingly, it will take 13.2 seconds for overclocking, and the maximum speed reaches 181 km / h.
- TDI diesel, which has improved characteristics, with 4150 revolutions produces 110 horses. It differs in more vigorous acceleration - 11.1 seconds to 100 km / h - and high maxima - 191 km / h.
- The peak of the diesel vertex is TDI, containing a whole "Tabun" of 130 horses, with a moment of as much as 310 "Newtons". It has good overclocking dynamics - 9.7 seconds and maximum possibilities of 207 km / h.
Despite the fact that Tour's gasoline engines turned out to be not voracious, "coming" no more than 11 liters, diesel versions of the Skoda consume significantly less.
Operational features
Thanks to the conduct of numerous test drives, it was found that Oktavia tour refers to the most prompt models for urban ride.
The car is distinguished by confident and rapid acceleration, clear shift shift, accessibility of spare parts.
Shown in the photo steeringEquipped with a hydraulicer makes it easy to manage a sufficiently heavy car. None of the Tour packages are designed to drive at high speeds. However, long distances the car overcomes perfectly. There is a fairly volumetric fuel tank, presented in the photo. All the engines provided for Oktavia engines economically spend fuel, without needing additional refueling on decent distances.
Let's sum up
The car under consideration is ideal for riding in the city, as well as on long distances. At the same time, it is quite economical and unpretentious in maintenance. A wide selection of engine types and a variety of technical characteristics allow consumers to choose an optionally acceptable option at a reasonable price.

A5 Global Platform (PQ35) Combines Skoda Octavia with Volkswagen Golf and Jetta Fifth Series, Touran, Tiguan, EOS and Golf Plus., SEAT Leon, Altea and Toledo and even with Audi A3 and Audi TT second generation
Heredity - in all its glory. This is about Oktavia Body: With the ability to resist corrosion from cars concern Volkswagen. There are no problems for a long time, and Skoda is unnecessary confirmation (hustling renovated machines do not count).
Before restyling 2008, the appearance was more angular - with other headlights and rear lamps, the hood, and in the cabin other dashboard. But the main thing - the line of engines has seriously changed
And, alas, the same traditionally paint coating It does not always work tenaciously hold on for a good galvanized metal: if it does not twist the chips in time, ulcers can go, leaving propellants on the hood, thresholds, wheel arches And the bottom of the doors.
Skoli paints better tangle not bag - so as not to grow
Dorestayling cars over 2008 paint also gets from unsuccessful door seals, and the tired species often add splashing door moldings and narrow-cut headlights. Weakly protected from moisture contacts in the illumination of the room (10 euros at the rate of 63 rubles per euro) rotate sometimes in just two or three years, and because of the breakdown of the brake pedal (15 euros) stop the stop signals.
"Chrome" finishes loses a gloss in five to six years - the benefit of decorative elements with a minimum
After five to six years, it began to bullure or left in the refusal of the power window control unit, the central lock, drives and heating of the exterior mirrors? This holiday is familiar and owners of many Volkswagenov - First of all, check the serviceability of the wiring between driver's door and the stalk of the body: harness breaks in the bend (more reliable wiring only in 2011).
The mechanism of wipers is able to lend after 100 thousand kilometers
Did not pass Octavia and the mass of other corporate ailments. Dorestantiling copies often whip the head unit of the audio system (500 euros). Regardless of the year of release, the chilms are built into the door locks (150 euros) microswitches-terminivics - while the control unit does not sees the opening and closing of the door. The trapezoids of janitors (200 euros), whose wear should be ready after 100 thousand kilometers, and versions with a wiper on the trunk lid under threat and it too.
After 60-80 thousand kilometers, the motor of the climate system fan (100 euros) is also capable of moving on Zhigulevsky (100 euros) - lubricant, as a rule, saves for a while, the benefit of the craftsmen for a long time they brought only bearings to change. The design of the node was finalized, alas, only under the curtain of the production of "Second" Octavia in 2012.
Versions with automatic climate control CLIMATRONIC through three or five years of weather in the house are able to sang both the dammes of the dampers and the block itself. It happens, microcracks appear on the fifth year of life in the evaporator of the air conditioner, and instances of the first three years of release do not have the reliability of the compressor (300 euros). And in the winter, we certainly make a useful habit of shaving snow with shoes before planting the steering wheel - otherwise, when you collect a large amount of ice, the plastic hinge of the outdoor gas pedal (100 euros) can simply fall apart.
We arrived from Europe diesel specimens we have a cat with a drink (less than 3% of all modifications in the amount), and sorry: they are good, although not without sin. The main stain on the reputation of a two-liter diesel engine with the power system cOMMON RAIL. At octavia, no older than 2010 release (1.5% of proposals) was the cracking of the fuel lines due to the fault of defective materials on copies of the first year of release, because of which, at the end of 2011, a service campaign had to replace them. It happens, the seal occurs valve coverFrom short trips and enzymes in the territory, the USR valve (280 euros) will overflow, and when 110-130 thousand runs, the intake manifold and the water pump (170 euros for the original and from 50 per analogs). But usually concerns with this engine are reduced to replacing nozzles seals after 100-120 thousand kilometers (15 euros per set).
But Diesels 1.9 and 2.0 on copies until 2010 release a risky due to expensive pump-nozzles in the system - 700 euros per piece! In addition, the two-liter unit was noted by the warranty replacements of cylinder blocks due to cracks and the destruction of the oil pump drive through 80-100 thousand kilometers - because of this, the motors could also be "wedged with a hungry oil soldering. And any of diesel engines Two-hour flywheel (750-800 euros) lives in one and a half or two times less than with gasoline units: 50-80 thousand kilometers.
The fastest Octavia RS can be both hatchback and wagon. The lowered sport suspension gives up 30-40 thousand kilometers before the usual - not least because of more low profile tires. BWA two-liter turbomor engine with a belt in the THM drive (it rotates only the exhaust camshaft, from which the intake is driven by a chain) after restyling, the Ccza chain unit with the same capacity of 200 hp was changed. - both love to eat a thousand kilometers from 0.7 to one liter of oil, and in the rest of the reliability much different from their less powerful fellow. Since 2006, the gamma has been added to the gamma less powerful, but more traveled 170-strong two-liter diesel engine with a very capricious injection system and turbine with an adjustable nozzle apparatus
All laurels of the long-liver have a gasoline eight-point 1.6 with an ordinary distributed injection, popular (without a small third of cars) not only because of its availability.
Yes, it is weak and old: the EA827 family appeared in the middle of the 80s, and not what survived the previous Octavia of the first generation - and in the carburetor version it was still on the "second" Volkswagen Golf and Audi 80. But without special adventures, the motor is able to step over the front 300-350 thousand kilometers. And before that, three times will have to update the timing belt together with the water pump (140 euros branded and from 30 substitutes), the ignition coil (150 euros is original and from 35 analogs) and high-voltage wires (10-20 euros).
Turbo engine 1.4 with a cast-iron cylinder block and an aluminum head from the EA111 series appeared in 2005 came to replace the atmospheric two-liter "fours"
Engine 1.6 with distributed injection is distinguished by constructive congenital vibrations at idle. The problem can be reduced, slightly raising turns
Other possible troubles for the most part are older - from a number of trivial leaks of crankshafts. Double valve stem seals And the crooked piston rings are capable of tinkering the exhaust of the SIZY after 120-140 thousand kilometers, then the excess sounds can add extensible valve hydrocompensaters (13 euros). Floating idling - reason to check the nozzles (90 euros) and idling regulator and clean throttle valve. Well, the largest of the troubles - the formation of cracks in tired in the seven or ten years of the intake manifold plastic (130 euros), due to air supply bypass air filter The motor begins to work unstable.
All-wheel drive Octavia Scout. With the rear axis connection system, it is more expensive than an ordinary stationary for 100-150 thousand rubles. The clearance is more than 4 cm, and the rear springs accelerate less than that of other versions. Transmission with an exceptionally mechanical six-speed is practically reliable - subject to an oil update in Haldex couphe every 60,000 kilometers. Better - along with the filter, otherwise it will not be laid and the coupling itself, and her pump. From overheating the coupling save competent sensors, and it serves at least 150-200 thousand kilometers
Not bad and atmospheric sixteenthly gauge 1.4 MPI (6% of proposals), but only unpleasant: its 75-80 "horses" of an octavia is not always enough in the city.
Here with a hopeless engine 2.0 dorestayling octavia over 2008 (5% of cars) is quite a shrust. If it becomes. After all, the early Volkswagen "directists" became famous for problems with the launch in the frost. Engineers as they could have fought with their victim, without tired by releasing new and new firmware of the engine control unit, but the case complicates the tendency of motors to the rapid "collecting" on the valves and piston rings (the regular cleaning of the crankcase ventilation system) is helped.
In addition, like other gasoline octavia, you need to follow the purity of the filter mesh in the low pressure fuel pump in the tank. Formally, the primitive filter is changing only with the pump (150 euros for the original and one and a half or two times cheaper than analogs) - the benefit of the craftsmen have long learned to update the mesh separately and for only 60 euros together with the work. And even every 40-50 thousand kilometers it is desirable to remove and clean the nozzles (120 euros) and not forget about the replacement of the timing belt - better every 60,000 kilometers, and with a water pump, which is rarely held longer.
And these are still flowers. And the berries fell along with downsayzing turbogors, the shaft of which was fully covered with octave after restyling.
At the EA111 series of 1.4 liters (6%) and occasionally occurring motors 1.2, instead of a belt in the timing mechanism, a chain was used, on the plan of creators, designed for the entire service life of the engine, - and before overhame they are able to pull out 200-300 thousand kilometers. But in fact, a single-row long chain sometimes sometimes determined: stretching and overcoming the resistance of deprived blocking of the reverse stroke and not too persistent tensioner (25 euros), leaked through the tooth of the stars and sent engines to knockout in just 40-60 thousand kilometers! With an unsuccessful circumstance, the engine restoration will cost no less than 2000-3000 euros, and if there is no desire to admire the consequences of the valve meetings and the pistons, hurry to update the timing of the timing, barely hear the characteristic chain.
In addition, the younger Motor under warranty massively changed turbocharger (500-650 euros per Remkomplekt). In Engine 1.4, they are stronger, although sometimes a hooligan of the bypass valve or a control valve. But weak the pistons! In addition to the unsuccessful design of the pistons themselves and their rings, the liquid intercooler is stiffer: Not only that it does not mind to prove and miss the cooling fluid in the intake manifold, so over time it ceases to cool the air due to heat exchanger contamination (it is clogged with oil sludge from the ventilation system and valve Recycling). And with high load, the case can reach the jumpers between rings and the full destruction of the piston themselves.
In 2011, pistons strengthened. The timing and design of the timing, changing the chain, gears and the engine cover, is the risk of a chain jumps to a minimum. But so that the chain is critical not stretched earlier than 100-120 thousand kilometers, the car does not need to be left to a slope for the transmission without a tightened handler, it is extremely gently shipped to the tow truck and even more so do not start with a pusher. Consider - this applies to all Volkswagen concern cars equipped with "chain" motors of recent generations, including the most common engine 1.8 (37% machines).
In this engine, by the way, due to the "overgrown" oil separator or a refined or torn membrane of the crankcase ventilation valve (240 euros), the top nozzle of the turbine is strongly stuffed and the rear seal of the crankshaft - by 2012 the ventilation was finalized. What is more important, at the same time the piston group was modified - mainly for the sake of the pistons themselves, in which the rings mobility were lost before due to an unsuccessful design, and the engine began to consume oil from replacement to replace with liters. And at the same time they made relvevength and drive the timing, improving not too mighty and this engine has a chain and her tensioner (who has a ratchet teeth cut): before they rarely held longer than 90-100 thousand kilometers.
To savings on quality motor oil Or the deadlines for its replacement are painfully not only the piston rings, but also a reduction valve of the oil pump: after 100-120 thousand kilometers this can be prompted by a light bulb of an oil pressure. And, like all turbo units, in the risk group, the delicate nozzles are extremely sensitive to the quality of fuel (120-150 euros), high pressure fuel pump (200-250 euros), the roller of its pusher and the corresponding camshaft cam, and after 80-100 thousand kilometers can flow pump (280-330 euros for the original and 120-150 per analogs).
And remember that the ignition system from the "immediate" aggregates can quickly judge short winter trips: when the motor can be loaded, the ignition candles (from 15 euro per set) and for a long time, and the ignition coils (40 euros) are sentenced.
With mechanical transmission of drama less, although not all cloudless (especially on dorestayling octaves). In a five-speed 0AF unit with younger gasoline engines, only 30-40 thousand kilometers can break the clusters of fraternal combined in one case rear bearings Primary and secondary shafts (after refinement they began to withstand at least 80-120 thousand kilometers). And at the six stakes 02S on more powerful versions and the five-step 0A4 with diesel engines with a differential: the bearing turned on the housing, and with intensive slips due to a lack of satellite lubrication, it could accumulate to the axis. It is not worthwhile to "tear" and a six-speed box 02Q on the modifications RS: the row ball bearings of the primary shaft breaks its landing in the magnesium crankcase (since 2008 his climate appeared an additional emphasis).
The traditional six-speed "automatic" Aisin Warner TF-61SN (or 09G in German classification) was not bad for octavia (or 09g in German), in 2003 developed by the Japanese jointly with concern Vag.- This is supposed to be Motor 1.6, two-liter gasoline engines on copies older than 2008 and part of the motors 1.8. It can be seriously suspended with more powerful engines. It may not be too effective heat exchanger: from overheating, bearings and hydraulicock controls suffer from overheating, and, if after 60-80 thousand kilometers, the gear shift will become shock, you will have to look for 1000 euros to replace the hydroblock or try to reanimate it from Cleells for 400 euros. And do not forget that the Japanese box is extremely sensitive to the quality and purity of the oil, it is better not to skip and update "life-long enough" transmission at least after 60 thousand kilometers.
With the same periodicity, it is necessary to change the oil in the six-speed preditives of DQ250, since 2010 appeared on diesel octavia and on "charged" versions of RS: these boxes have no less gentle mechanical control hydraulic lock (1700 euros) than the Aisin Warner unit, but reliability otherwise no worse.
But the seven-step "robot" DQ200 (or 0am on the internal classification) is a visual example of what to spoil the reputation is much faster and easier than then restore. Appeared in 2008 an aggregate with dry clutches LUK turned out to be completely raw. Problems with mechatronomic (2000 euros) were supplemented with a run-off with a junction character and clutch wear and wishes through 40-50 thousand kilometers, whims of sensors and an oil pump in the control unit with the CONTINENTAL valve mechanism. Dealers massively reflash the "brains" of the control unit in attempts to adjust the moment of closure and opening of the discs, "floating" as they are natural wear, changed - and often not one time - clutch packages (1,200 euros), and the entire boxes (7000 euros ).
Engineers rushed to save the situation with such enthusiasm, which is annually, and even twice a year began to issue new versions not that firmware (they were countless), but the boxes themselves. DSG trial and error in DSG errors were trying to teach the clutch, and the most substantial preselender was modernized in 2012 - with competent operation, the recent years of release aggregates are completely able to withstand without replacing the clips and repair of the mechanical mechanical block at least 100-130 thousand kilometers, and the reduction part resource - at 250-300 thousand kilometers.
In the suspension against the background of such turbulent events - relative quiet yes smooth. True, like a relative Volkswagen Passat. B6, at first caused bewilderment rapidly - sometimes after 30-50 thousand kilometers - wear of the rear silent blocks (30-35 euros) levers in the front suspension McPherson. But restyled machines knot is modernized and withstands at least 100-120 thousand kilometers. These mileage falls the main troubles: the steering tips may be needed (40 euros branded and from 10 substitutes), wheel bearings (and front, and the rear changes together with the hub and stand equally - 130 euros are original and 40 analogues) and shock absorbers - First rear (70 and 20 euros branded and famous analogs, respectively), and a little later, the front (100 and 45 euros). When turning the steering wheel (more often - dorestayling copies) on fate they complain about the tired supporting bearings of the front racks (40 euros branded and from 10 non-original), and with wear of the sleeves will have to get up ... to the stabilizer assembly for 140 euros. And amazingly distinguished the "reinforced" suspension from slightly raised cars with a package for bad roads: they saw, otherwise the rear springs are bursting (85 euros)!
First prematurely, sometimes after 70-90 thousand kilometers, the silent blocks of the rear transverse levers were smelled, but on modernized cars, the entire rear multi-dimensions are quite durable: the revision is rarely required earlier than 120-160 thousand kilometers, and the silent blocks are worth 8-10 Euro. At the same time, the front ball supports (45 euros branded and from 10 non-original) may be needed. Well, the first in 30-40 thousand kilometers in Octavius \u200b\u200bover 2008, as a rule, the racks of both stabilizers are resigned (40 euros are original and from 10 analogs) - after modernization, they began to withstand 50-80 thousand kilometers.
In general, the Skoda Octavia can take restyled with a veteran motor 1.6. Here are just prices on secondary market More sellers will be pleased, rather than buyers: those who produced in parallel until 2010 is more simple and therefore the very less troublesome Skoda Octavia Tour of the first generation with the same engine is cheaper by 50-80 thousand rubles. And paying only 20-50 thousand, you can buy Volkswagen Passat B6.

Description
Skoda Octavia A4 of the first generation in terms of reliability is good. And did the family traditions be presented at the A5 platform, released from 2004 to 2013?
Skoda Obvary I.
In September of this year, 10 years since the day when Paris Motor Show A new model of the SKODA Octavia car with the factory number A4 was demonstrated to the general public. In 1996, this car personified the result of close seven-year cooperation of Czech and German engineers and was called upon to demonstrate the result of the collaboration done for this period. Today it is safe to argue that Skoda Octavia managed to completely justify the hopes assigned to it as the creators themselves, and more than a million one hundred and fifty thousand people who have already become owners of new "Octas" today.
In the debut year, the Skoda Octavia model range was limited only by cars with the Hatchback body, and the model of the Octavia Combi wagon saw the light only two years later.
Body Skoda Octavia carrier, with steel frame. Profile stamping, forming the carrier part of the body (frame), are welded, and in places even glued with special glue. In the context of the requirements for passive security modern car, OCTAVIA power frame and in front, and rear has deformable zones. To ensure additional trauma security of the car passengers with side impact in the door Skoda Octavia, steel round-section amplifiers made of high-strength steel are installed. With the same purpose, additional power tubular elements are mounted in the vehicle thresholds. The driver's seat in the basic modification is equipped with an injury-safe pedal with a folding steering column and a seat belt with a pretensioner.
Thanks to the use of a multistage anti-corrosion protection system and wide use in the design of a galvanized steel sheet for all Skoda Octavia body, the manufacturer provides a ten-year warranty from the emergence of places with end-to-end corrosion.
On the basis of the car, the creators of Octavia put the Golf IV platform, fashion legislators in the "C" segment, and at the same time, the Czech car created on this database on its dimensions is close approaching the cars of the group "D".
The ongoing drawbacks of the Skoda Octavia design can be attributed to the insufficient stiffness of the body in cars produced until 2000 - during a certain coincidence, this led to the appearance of cracks on the windshield. At one time, this problem was sufficiently acute, so that the dealership even had a special instruction in service of service workers so that they could distinguish the insured event from simple windshield damage. However, since 2000, when some changes that touched the Skoda Octavia design were made, including the car body, OCTAVIA owners stopped facing the problem of spontaneous destruction of windshields. But to the number of chronic disadvantages of the body design, a poor overview of the rear view, a characteristic creaking of door locks and loops, appearing some time after the start of operation of the car is possible. In the first case, the rear view panorama is closed with massive rear racks and a high lid of the trunk, which is especially felt when driving reverse and parking, but here they can help sufficiently large outer mirrors and parking sensors. In the second case, the whole wine is dirt falling inside the mechanism. It is possible to get rid of an annoying violin by disassembling and lubricating the entire node, however, sometimes it is enough to simply process the mechanism of penetrating lubrication.
The OCTAVIA interior is made in traditional for German, and now, probably, already Czech automakers with stylistics, it is functional and laconic. Good insulation of the cabin, convenient location of switches and control levers, informative, but not overloaded instrument shield, power steering - all this together allows you to significantly reduce the driver's fatigue driving. The wide range of driver's seat adjustments, hard and with good lateral support, including adjusting its height, the possibility of fitting the steering wheel, both in the vertical and axial direction, allow a person to sever behind the wheel, regardless of its growth and the complex quickly and without much Labor find a comfortable position.
Before you say a few words about the convenience of the passengers sitting behind, I want to mention the trunk of Skoda Octavia, about its 528 liters (for models with the hatchback body) free, read useful, space, which is unsurpassed to date the result for cars not only "with ", But also" D "class. And with a folded back seat, the size of the luggage compartment increases more than twice and reaches 1328 liters. But, as you know, it is necessary to pay for any pleasure, and in this case, passengers sitting in the back seat are forced to pay for a luxurious trunk, since with the front seats who are moved until the front seats have to be satisfied also with a record, but already a record small number of free space for legs .
In the period from 1997 to 2000, the Skoda Octavia vehicles were mostly produced in three main modifications. The easiest of them is the LX equipment included an immobilizer, an amplifier of a steering wheel, audio preparation, tinted glass, salon filter, steel wheels R 14, adjustable driver's seat in height and steering wheel with the possibility of adjusting it in vertical and axial directions.
According to the customer's wishes, the LX series cars could be retained aBS system, airbag for the driver, including the safety belt tension regulator, the airbag for the passenger, the front fog lights, electric killes, the central lock and headlight washers.
OCTAVIA LX installed engines of two types: a gasoline volume of 1.6 liters - 75 hp and diesel 1.9SDI - 68 hp, these engines with a 5-speed mechanical box Transmissions
The next modification of the OCTAVIA GLX car has already been completed with the central locking, front fog lights, electric boards and split rear seats in respect of 2: 3. List additional equipment OCTAVIA GLX allowed the car by the ABS system, the airbag for the passenger, adjustable at the height of the passenger seat, radio, air conditioning, electric windows, the hatch in the roof with electrical drive and headlight washers. The list of engines for cars of this series was exhausted by three types of power units: two 1.6 l gasoline volume, with a capacity of 75 hp and 101 hp, respectively, and a turbocharged ninety-silent diesel engine of 1.9 liters. At the same time, in the version of Octavia GLX Comfort 101, a strong gasoline engine has aggregated with a 4-speed automata.
Externally, in the standard configuration, Octavia SLX was different from his own, just say, "non-heedled relatives" of alloy wheels. Besides cast drivesThe SLX modification included in its airbag package for the driver and passenger with the safety belt tension regulator, electrical windows for all doors, electrical control of the roof hatch, adjustable in height passenger seat. For a fee, the equipment of Octavia SLX could be replenished with ABS system, air conditioning, radio tape recorder, heated front seats and already traditional for the list of additional equipment headlights.
Least powerful engine From among those who were completed by Octavia SLX, was 1.9TDI with a capacity of 90 hp, after it followed 101-strong gasoline 1.6, then a 110-strong version of the already mentioned 1.9TDI, then a gasoline 125-strong atmospheric 1.8 should be A change in which in 2000 came a 2-liter engine with a capacity of 115 hp, and since the spring of 1998, Octavia SLX began to complete the turbocharged 150-strong version of the engine 1.8. Any gasoline model Octavia SLX could be purchased both from mechanical and with automatic box Transmissions.
1999 was marked by two important events concerning model Row Skoda Octavia. So, this year debuted all-wheel drive (4x4), with independent rear suspension Octavia Combi versions equipped with a 4-motion full drive system (4x4 hatchback version appeared later). Torque between the front and rear axles is distributed through haldex couplingsequipped with an electronic control unit. In normal conditions of movement, the torque is heading completely to the front wheels, but as soon as rear wheels Torn to slip, the redistribution of torque between the front and rear wheels occurs. Creating a all-wheel drive version demanded some changes to the design car body. For installation under the trunk floor, the Viscouft and the rear axle crankcase developers had to eliminate the spare wheel niche with all its contents, so the function of the spare wheel in all-wheel drive versions is performed by the sprinkler for express repair of punctured tires. As practice has shown, the OCTAVIA car full drive system does not cause any special hassle to their owners, some concern can only cause the electronic unit Control of this system, but possible fault-related faults "get out", as a rule, in the first 2,000 km of mileage.
Also in 1999, another one was added to the three main modifications above, the serial release of the Top version of Skoda Octavia - Laurin & Klement, the release of which was adjusted at the Skoda AUTO plant in Upolbye. Unlike its predecessors, in addition to the name "Own" Laurin & Klement, the new model Octavia received as the entire Option of Octavia SLX plus a full electric car and leather interior, decorated with wooden and aluminum inserts. If you wish, all this beauty could be concluded in a bullet-proof shell in the class D4. The OCTAVIA version of OCTAVIA is able to withstand, according to manufacturers, shot from the 12th caliber rifle. The Laurin & Klement model has been staffed by two types of turbocharged engines - gasoline 150-strong and 110-strong diesel. The combination of luxurious finishes and the Czech pedigree did Octavia Laurin & Klement a very popular car in the environment of Czech politicians, providing the last extremely comfortable opportunity to demonstrate their patriotism.
In 2000, the Octavia model has undergone some stylistic and constructive changes. The car body has become much tougher. The car itself received a set of new headlights with white scatteers of turn repeaters plus for the Hatchback version. Set of new rear LightsThe front bumper with improved aerodynamic indicators has changed the form of a decorative radiator lattice. The former faceless abbreviations LX, GLX, SLX in the updated version of Octavia were changed by the names of Classic, Ambiente and Elegance, respectively.
Changes in the car was touched on the design of the rear seat, as a result of which for the feet of its passengers it was possible to carve an additional 40 mm of free space. Ambiente and Elegance models received a new instrument panel, while Classic series cars continued to complete the panel of the old sample. The list of additional equipment has been significantly expanded for each of the above modifications, including the rain sensor, the ESP stabilization system, the front seats with an electrically regulating and memory for the three positions of the driver's seat, synchronized with the position of the outer mirrors, later appeared the ability to arm a car with a set of xenon headlights. on an on-board computer.
Cars intended for russian market, taking into account the accumulated bitter experience since 1999, they became equipped with a manufacturer's manufacturer with a special "Eastern" package, in the spacious name of the "Russian package" or "package for bad roads". The list of "Eastern" package includes: a set of reinforced shock absorbers and springs, so that the car clearance increases to 170 mm, reinforced steering Reika, Carter protection, electrical wiring with increased moisture resistance, engine control unit, adapted to work with low quality gasoline, as well as additional anticorrosive treatment car.
Updates touched and gamma offered for Octavia engines. In 2000, to replace the former force aggregate of 1.6 l / 75 hp The sixteenthlylated motor of the same power of 1.4 liters came, new gasoline engines 1.6 / 102 hp, 2.0 / 115 hp And the 180th version of the popular 1.8 turbo, and since 2003, Skoda Octavia cars, equipped with a new turbocharged Diesel of 1.9 liters with an intercooler with a capacity of 130 hp, aggregated with a six-speed manual transmission. The high dynamic characteristics of this engine are achieved thanks to the installation of the Common Rail Fuel injection system.
In the same 2000, Czech Bestseller fans waited a pleasant surprise, That year, a new "charged" version of Skoda Octavia RS with the body of the hatchback was presented to the court again, the RS Combi version debuted two years later.
Outwardly, the Octavia RS model differs from its tribesmen to a more massive front bumper, reduced on 20 mm clearance, side linings, green brake calipers, spoiler on the trunk lid. At the same time, OCTAVIA RS developers managed to reduce the coefficient of aerodynamic resistance (CX) in a new model from 0.30 to 0.29 units. Inside the car suggests pedals with metal linings, two-color salon, a set of front seats with advanced side support, a leather three-satellular steering wheel, through which the speedometer scale is well visible, marked up to 260 km / h. Besides, in standard complete set The car includes two airbags, ABS / ASR / MSR systems, on-board computer, electric car, air conditioning, audio system, fog, 16-inch wheel disks Spider and sports muffler. At the same time, if desired, the OCTAVIA RS model could be retained by side airbags, ESP system, climate control, xenon headlights, heated seats, parking sensors, rear janitor and, as you, dear reader, probably guessed, headlight washers.
The OCTAVIA RS body due to the stretch margin has become even tougher as a prerequisite for a clear operation of the automotive suspension adapted to the active ride manner. Under the hood The most powerful, 180-strong version of the engine 1.8T, outstanding "on-mountain" Torque 235 nm in the range of rotational speed of the crankshaft from 1950 to 5000 revolutions / minute, the stopwatch freezes at 7.9 at the moment when the speedometer arrow Pull over the first hundred. It would seem, well, what else can you add? Practice shows that it is possible to fuck the chip tuning to be addicted to this harness additional forty - forty five horse power. But before you do it, hot heads should take into account the fact that after such a "firmware" the car will no longer succumb to testing the manufacturer's factories. The same can happen with any other car if any changes not provided for by factory programs were made in its settings.
In March 2004, the Skoda Octavia of the second generation with the factory index A5 was debuted at the Geneva Motor Show. Among others new Skoda. Octavia inherited from his predecessor the number and names of the three main modifications Octavia.: Classic, Ambiente and Elegance. But along with the beginning of the OCTAVIA A5 release, the Czechs decided to continue the production of the popular A4 model at least for the period until 2008. Left in the old body, Octavia A4 got a new name for all models - Octavia Tour.
Today basic equipment Octavia Tour includes ABS, Cz, on-board computer, Package for bad roads, fog lights, glasswater nozzles, front electric windows, airbags for the driver and front passenger, heated electric mirrors. But still not so much comfort, security and an impressive list of additional equipment forced buyers to stop their choice on the Skoda Octavia model, how many good performance on all this ten years. First of all, the Skoda Octavia body design should be given and emphasize its extremely high corrosion resistance, which even was noted by the German technical supervision by the TUV report in the 2005 report. The suspension of the car, according to the OCTAVIA owners themselves, also does not give them special troubles. As a rule, approximately every 50-70 thousand have to change the front stability stabilizer bushings, and in some cases, by this time there will be a turn of the replacement of silent blocks of the rear semi-independent suspension. The ball supports together with the steering tips are maintained by a mileage of 100 and more than thousands of kilometers, shock absorbers adapted to poor roads serve 120-150 thousand. Bearings of the front hubs, as a rule, require a replacement to 60-70 thousand km. Brake discs It is maintained at 2-3 sets of pads, so the time of their replacement occurs at 80-90 thousand km, the calipers do not flow with properly behind them and do not clone. As for the steering rail, there are cases when it began to flow or knock to 120 thousand km, but also this breakdown is primarily characteristic of cars up to 2000. Mechanical 5 tbsp. and automatic 4 tbsp. Transmission are unpretentious and reliable in operation. Clutch kits on average serve 100 thousand km, but car owners with an engine 1.8T must be ready that the clutch kit on their car comes assembled with the engine flywheel and costs almost twice as expensive than the clutch kit for any other family of family Octavia. The maintenance of the OCTAVIA engines themselves is subordinate to the planned, the replacement of oil / oily and air filter every 15 thousand km, replacing the spark plugs - every 30 thousand km. Time to replace the timing belt with rollers for 1.6 and 2.0 L engines occurs at 60 thousand km, for 1.8 and 1.8t engines at 90 thousand km, when replacing, with a timing belt and rollers change and water pump. The characteristic, characteristic of all OCTAVIA motor faults can be attributed to the failure of the coolant temperature sensor, air flow meter, drive belts (not to be confused with the timing belt). For 1.6 engines, the briefness of the lambda probe is characterized, whose service life ends to 60 thousand km, 1.8T engines are noted by non-chronic, but repeated cases of "hanging" of the turbine rod in the open position, which entails the replacement of the node in Collection. A relatively small service life of the incandescent candle control unit is characteristic of a line of diesel engines.
Of course, this list, the number of Skoda Octavia breakdown is not limited, but in general, as the experience of its owners tells us, maintaining a car in a good working condition in terms of the year does not exceed $ 100 per month.
Summing up, I must say that thanks to jointly done in the mid-nineties, the Czech and German automakers work not only Russia, but the whole of Europe has received at its disposal new version of this "folk" car, which fully meets the most intimate aspirations of car owners from the people who wish in exchange for their blood earned to get an unpretentious and durable assistant. At the same time, an impressive list of additional equipment is designed to dispel our idea of \u200b\u200bSkoda Octavia, as about the car, which can only carry and pull, because, along with this, he knows how to "fade", and admire, and not only the Paris public
Alexey Polovnikov
The story of Skoda Octavia Tour originates in 1992, when the Czech company presented his new, then the nameless concept car, developed by joint efforts with Volkswagen specialists. The public prototype liked, but he was at an early stage of development, so the manufacturers have spent the following several years to improve it.
It was serious about the serial production of the concept only in 1995, when the foundation of the new Skoda plant was laid in Mlada Boleslav. Again, we note that the construction of the production site would be impossible without investing from Volkswagen, which in those years actively collaborated with Czechs.
Well, at the 1996 Paris Motor Show, the serial version of the concept, which ranked Skoda Octavia Tour was presented. Already during the Czech dealership, the Czechs took several dozen car orders, however, the first cars came from the conveyor only a few months later. The first years was produced by the front-wheel drive version of Octavia Tour, but the all-wheel drive modification of the vehicle appeared soon.
As a platform for the first generation of the model (1996-2010), the Czechs chose A4, which previously served as the basis for fourth generation Volkswagen Golf IV. A lot of models of cars were built on this "cart", however, among them Skoda Octavia tour turned out to be larger. The dimensions of the vehicle are 4 507/1 731/1 431 mm (length, width and height, respectively). The model of the model is 2,512 mm, and the road clearance (clearance) is 134 millimeters.
Thanks to skoda dimensions Octavia Tour (A4) can not only boast a spacious lounge, but also a capacity of 528 liters with a capacity. I wonder what rear seats The car is easy to fold, allowing you to increase luggage compartment much more!
The strong side of Oktavia tour is considered its strict design. There is nothing superfluous in the guise of the car. Simple body lines talk about its reliability, while the car looks elegant and presentable. Salon model under the design of the exterior - the same simple, but at the same time quite comfortable and in its own way stylish.
Line of power units for the first generation Octavia A4 tour is represented by five types gasoline engines With a working volume from 1.4 to 1.8 liters. The most powerful of them is 1.8T engine, which develops 150 hp at 5,700 rpm.
Also on the market there are cars with a 1.9-liter turbodiesel with a capacity of 90 and 110 hp, which is noticeably superior to gasoline aggregates in terms of fuel economy. Everyone without exception engines for Skoda Octavia Tour were developed by German specialists from VW.
The base version with a 1.4-liter engine accelerates zero to a hundred in 15.3 seconds ( maximum speed - 171 km / h). The car with a 1.8-liter unit reaches 100 km / h per 8.4 seconds. (maximum speed - 219 km / h), and the top diesel version of Octavia Tour A4 is gaining a hundred per 13.0 s, and its maximum speed is 182 km / h.
Gasoline engines work in a pair with a five-speed manual gearbox, or with a four-band "machine". For models with diesel, a six-speed manual transmission is provided.
Initially, Skoda Octavia A4 tour was produced only in the five-door body of the hatchback, but already in 1998 the version of the universal appeared on the market. After two years, Czech experts carried out a global restyling model, after which the car existed on the conveyor unchanged as much as 2010
Melk-sector Skoda Octavia Tour RS, which appeared on sale in 2002, was completed from interesting modifications of mention, which was built on a restyled version of the model, the car was equipped with a 1.8-liter turbo engine, developing 180 hp, providing overclocking to hundreds for 7.9 seconds . The model includes xenon headlights, heated seats and the ESP dynamic stabilization system.
At one time, Skoda Octavia tour was presented in the market in three different equipment: Classic, Ambiente and Elegance. The first is the basic version of the model, however, it differed quite quite well.
There are adjustable here steering column, customized at the height of the driver's seat, power steering, airbags. Ambience and Elegance can boast the presence of a complete electrical machine, plenty of airbags, air conditioning system, ABS system and many others.
Today, buy Skoda Octavia Tour can be on the secondary market, and average price On the car (depending on the year of production, state, and configuration) ranges from 250,000 to 500,000 rubles.
