Servicing questions on my 161 car...

161DXXXX Have a chain And does the automatic transmission need to have oil change Thank you

Our answer:

Hi Carol,

That reg comes back as a Skoda Octavia 1.6 TDI with a DSG transmission. The engine uses a timing belt, not a chain, and it must be changed at least every 210,000km, regardless of time. 

The gearbox needs an oil change every three years.
