Škoda Transmission Oil Change in Espoo
Škoda cars are known for their reliability and practicality, but even the best technologies require regular maintenance. One of the key procedures for maintaining the performance of the transmission is the timely replacement of transmission oil.
Why is it important to change transmission oil?
During operation, transmission oil gradually loses its properties: viscosity deteriorates, lubricating ability decreases, and metallic microparticles appear. This happens due to the natural wear of parts. Delayed oil change can lead to overheating, reduced transmission efficiency, and even costly repairs.
How often should transmission oil be changed?
The recommended interval for changing transmission oil in Škoda vehicles is between 60,000 and 90,000 kilometers. However, this period may vary depending on operating conditions, driving style, frequency of off-road trips, or driving with high loads. For example, active city driving or driving with a full vehicle load may require more frequent changes.
Features of oil change in Škoda automatic and manual transmissions
Škoda cars use various types of transmissions: from classic manual transmissions to modern DSG and CVT. Oil change in automatic transmissions, pre-selective transmissions, and variators requires not only the correct selection of oil but also adherence to an exact protocol, including the replacement of filters and gaskets.
In manual transmissions, the procedure is a bit simpler but still requires a professional approach. This is especially important if there are noises, jerks, or difficulty shifting gears. Škoda models such as Octavia, Superb, and Kodiaq require special attention during transmission maintenance.
What oil is used in Škoda transmissions?
We use only high-quality transmission oils recommended by the Škoda manufacturer. These are oils with high thermal resistance and wear resistance, suitable for operation in Finnish climate conditions. Our service uses reliable brands: Mannoil, Champioil, and others, certified for specific models and transmission types.
Why trust oil change to professionals?
Modern Škoda transmissions are complex and technological units that require precision and experience in maintenance.

We use modern equipment, provide a transparent work process, and also give recommendations for further car maintenance.
