[Resolved]  Skoda Fabia — performance and maintenance

Dear Sir,

I Mr Sachin Narendra Agrawal had purchased a Skoda Fabia with the model details given below;

1. Date of purchase : - 25.01.2008
2. Chassis number : - 5J98A500083
3. Engine number : - BNM251216
4. Model : - Ambient Sliver
5. Dealer : - Saara Motors, Aurangabad

But since the time of purchase the vehicle is not the worth of price and neither any body is taking the responsibility for the same. The problems which we are facing from the first day are;

1. Dash board and seat noise : - while on running there is a continuous noise in the front dash board and in a non driving seat.

2. Mileage and Pick up : - we ha being given the assurance of 25 km per liter mileage but its not even giving 15 kms/ltr and pick up is worst than the first model of tata indica running on a.c.

3. Chamber safety and Ground clearance : - as on first day only the chamber plate was broken due to a stone below it of height just 110 mm, is this you call ground clearance.

4. Engine knocking and Suspension noise : - engine and suspension noise oh my god its like tractor.

5. Costly Maintenance : - First free servicing bill from the Saara motors is of 8703/- that is more than the cost of insurance price of the vehicle. And they are changing the diesel filter, oil filter, synthetic oil of 500 rs/ltr every 5000 kms.

Even after this the vehicle is send for the same and repetitive problems thrice to the showroom and every time they are taking the money for the same damm thing. The show room is recommending having the wheel alignment and balancing for the alloy wheels every 4000 kms and taking the charge for it even if it’s done before one month, that is free every where. It seems not to be the vehicle of Skoda motors but has the feeling worst than ambassador.

Hi everybody i have purchased a skoda fabia 1.2. TDI elegance at the time of purchase i was given a price list of spares which stated the changes of the prices of its spares. when i checked it with the service stations today, it was a stroke of horor to find that those prices are not even near to the actual prices e.g. clutch plate assembly along with fly wheel stated price as per spares price list is 12000/- where as its actual price is Rs. 36000/- so my frank opinion is, dont even consider Skoda vehicles in thoughts as well. on top of that while purchasing there is smthng called as extended Warranty which is nothing else than " BULL " as you have to pay for each and every stuff. The service stations does not even have got the details of the parts and stuff that is covered under warranty.

Best place to service your Fabia is a local mechanic who has a sound knowledge of diesel engines and not at authorised service stations. They will burn large holes in your pocket for something which can be taken care by your local mechanic for few hundreds.

so think about it as well as do not take any extended warraty for the vehicle at the time of purchase coz if you calculate it properly the warranty and service cost of the vehicle is higher only with the dealer.
I have skoda fabia tdi car.I have same probleme of chamber breakage due to stone hit.there are poor service in solapur city. There are less ground clearence so that's the common problem.The dealer shivratna motars solapur says it need to15 days. I think u should increase ground clearence and should give better service to customers.
