2010 Skoda Laura 1.9 TDI review | Best used car under 5 lakhs | Modified Skoda Laura | JRS Cars

- Hey guys, many of you have asked for a complete review of my 2010 Skoda Laura 1.9 diesel, so I took it very seriously and made this review. Its shot on my GoPro7 and the delay was due to unavailability of delivery in my area. Sorry for the delay!
The car you see here is powered by a 1.9 PD (pumpe duse) TDI motor producing 105 bhp and 250 nm of peak torque. It also has a Stage1+ Code 6 tune and now produces 140 bhp and 320 nm of torque.
If Maintenance cost is not an issue, this is one of the best practical, performance oriented luxury sedans, under INR 5 lakhs!
Hope you guys like what you see, leave a Like and Subscribe if not already done.
Please share your thoughts and feedback for improvement, as it's my first attempt at such review!
Thanks in advance!!

Amazing review, one of the best I've seen in a while. Please do a comparison between petrol 1.8 tsi and your car. Will be wanting to see that
Good going..... Waiting for ur next review 👍
Thank you Dr.!
Bro the problem with buying used GERMAN cars will be the maintenance cost for the upcoming years. Even if you use the car for 5 years you will end up spending 5 lakhs and even more if there is engine problems. VW cars engines are built with latest tech so there is some problems that might occurs. Japanese cars don't use latest tech so they won't have more problems and easily fixable by any mechanic whereas VW engines need specialist they are so advanced.
So if you use the car you bought for 5 lakhs for 5 years and its RC runs out . You will have to register it again. RC registration is like 10 years or 15 years so check that as well.
Yep bro. Agreed. But the upside is, 15L worth car, ur getting at 5L. So, if you don't plan on selling the car, in 5 years or so, you can save a lot, if you consider the interest percentage on 15L vs 5L alone.
Hi. Love your video. I was looking to buy a used Laura and tuning it and so came across this video. Please answer my queries
1. I was looking to buy the full option l&k variant. Do you know if that variant came with a diesel manual either for 2006 or 2009 models? I neither want to deal with dsg issues nor want to miss out on features.
2. How's the reliability of the car? How was your experience?
3. The major issue that I find and many say is the availability of parts. Is it easy to find spare parts for the 1.9l td diesel engine and the car in general since it was discontinued long back?
4. How much was the cost to do the stage 1 map? Was there any part change? How much performance did you again in acceleration timings?
Hi, thank you for the support :-)
To answer your questions....
1. I'm not too sure, but will check and revert back.
2. Reliability - Personally no major problems, we were stranded once due to clutch master cylinder failure. I've documented all maintenance issues here - ruclips.net/video/j3_K5W9LWKQ/видео.html
3. Parts should not be an issue at all, it was the only diesel engine for the Octy mk1 and there will be a lot of aftermarket solutions - nothing to worry for at least 10 years.
4. Remap and filter was 25k total. You can check out the acceleration differences below:

Hope this helps :-)
@@JRSCars thanks for the reply. What are the differences between 2006 and 2009 models other than cosmetics?
No issues, happy to help :-)
As far as I know, it's all cosmetic changes - lights, bumper, interior plastics colour etc. From 2010 mid onwards, the 2.0 tdi replaced the 1.9 tdi. Also, am not sure if the pre facelift got the 1.8 tsi...
@@JRSCars I watched your video on the general maintenance and experience of this car. So what I understood is that parts like wheel bearing fail due to some improper torque on wrenching and there are many issues like that. Parts are also very expensive, I was shocked with speed sensor costs among others. But the biggest problem that I face is, well reliability. You see, I was planning on making this as my daily. So just one experience of the clutch failure was enough to put me of. It could be a one off but I just don't want to be stranded. I also watched the long term review of your honda city. So right now I am leaving this idea of buying Laura. I will instead go with some old japanese car.
@@TheFirozIqbal Yes, if it is your daily and you have a budget of around 6L, go with a newer city, vento, rapid or verna. Parts will be cheaper and you will also get very good brand value.
Laura/Superb (used), will only suit as a second car (family/performance requirments), as it will require lots of maintenance in the long run.
My suggestion to you, get a car, above 2015 for piece of mind.
Nice video,, skodas are lovely cars. I live in UK, here they are default taxi cars. You look after them with frequent oil changes, they can run well past 2lac miles with lovely driving experience.
That's true! Great to hear from you man!
You have bought a 10 years old car .but there are some roumers that , our Indian government is in an idea of banning 15 years old vehicles and taking them to scrap ..Do you have any idea about it..... I'm a Laura fan ....but I have this big doubt ...plz reply your answer
Yes, there was a high possibility of that. But, this unfortunate pandemic has drastically reduced buying power of the common man and over 25% of vehicles on roads are over 15 years.
The ban and scrap policy will take effect for commercial vehicles.
For passenger vehicles, it may be increased to 20 years.
The risk is still there tho... but loopholes can always be found :-)
@@JRSCars thanks dude .....if there any update about this plz upload in your channel
Used Skoda laura 2.0 CR TDI Elegance or Ambient, diesel MT. Which is best choice.
Purely depends on the way the car is maintained. Electric folding mirrors, electric seats and auto climate control are nicer features, but check if it's working properly.
If you have a doubt, go for the Ambiente, it's the safer option, at the sacrifice of features.
@@JRSCars Grt thanks for quick suggestion
Is it still a good option to buy in 2023? There's a car available in good condition 1.9 TDI manual with 1lakh ODO for 3.5 lakh
Check my video on service and maintenance cost buddy
We have skoda Laura mnaual tdi and recently we bought new gen Mahindra thar 2020 I feel that skoda is more tough and we'll build than thar 2020, or am I wrong, need your advice
Milage difference between laura 1.9 manual And 2.0 manual ?
I want to know about mileage 1.9 mt laura
Hi. 1.9 mileage: 12 in city, 20 highway
2.0 mileage should be almost same...
hey .... nice review I plan to buy Skoda Laura used car which model is very good this variant, can you suggest .......... 2.0 or 1.9 , AMT DSG , MT
,
Hi, thank you! 2.0 MT is better. Also, it is not AMT DSG, it is only DSG. You can check more details on transmissions here - ruclips.net/video/uaQyJ5TLM5Q/видео.html
The old DSG in Laura/Superb can be very expensive to fix if it fails...
Hello brother I just found a option bt audio on the skoda laura infotainment by pressing the right analog for 5 sec can you explain how can I get it working ?
Hi, you require a bt module for that brother...
@@JRSCars from where can I buy it ?
Kidnap comfort who need😂😂
Haha. Depends on the person you're kidnaping 😂😏
@@JRSCars by the way amazing review bro❤️
Haha thanks man😊
I have 1.9 Laura tdi l&k 2008 model
Running is 157000 km
Can i still use this car 2 year or can i sell this car... please answer i am very confusing....
Hi, it depends on your maintenance and overall condition of your car.
For a well maintained Laura, 2L km is nothing.
If you feel major components are about to fail, turbo, suspension, ac, etc, then sell it before problems become arise.
@@JRSCars thank you very much
Hi sir 2010 Laura 1.9 automatic how many kilometres mileage per 1 letter . Reply please sir
16 to 17 in city. And 18 to 20 highway.
@@jayayachandranthampy.m.r8230 it really gives 16-17 in the city omg
I want to buy
Skoda Laura 2.0 CRDI (2012)
80000KM 1st Owner
Plz tell Ideal Price
For this car..🙏🏻
Hi, which variant is it? DSG or Manual?
@@JRSCars Its DSG Automatic Top Model.
Nice. Between 6-7 lakhs, if the car is in very good condition.
But beware of pricey electronics, which can cause big and expensive repairs.
Also, check the DSG properly, it'll be very very expensive to fix, if it fails.
Thank you for your guidance
If you change the side mirror and few component changed this car mistaken new car
Haha thanks man!
Is it advisable to buy 2011 skoda Laura 1.9 tdi mt 1,75,000 kms driven with AC problem for 2.75 lacks , and can the engine last for 5 lacks kms , if maintained from now on ?
Hi, kindly confirm if its a 2.0 or 1.9
To my knowledge, 1.9PD TDI was stopped in 2010 itself...
If the car is in excellent condition, except the AC (will cost 30k+), then yes, go for it.
But, its already run almost 2L km, to make it last another 3L km is difficult. So be prepared for atleast a re-build, coz it all depends on maintenance in the first few years.
Look at it like this.
If a child is spoiled rotten when young, it's difficult to reform him later. But, if a child is brought up well from early age, he'll automatically grow up well, with proper advice (in a cars case, proper maintenance)
@@JRSCars The RC says 2011 and 84kw , so I think it’s 2.0 TDI MT, he is asking for 3.1 lacks , I am in a dilemma to purchase this car or go for a normal ignis or swift , my monthly running is very low , it might not be more than 500kms per month, that’s why looking to buy this skoda , please guide further , and that you for the reply.
And rebuild if imminent could you please tell me how much it would cost to do so ?
How much did that tuning cost you? And what’s the mileage you’re getting now?
Tuning was 25k. I've made a separate video on that bro
Mileage has reduced by 2 kmpl in the city, Highway depends on how u drive. If u push it, 15 is lowest, 20 max
Very good review 👍
Very good info!
Bro how is build quality of this car is it better compared to new Mahindra thar 2020 and tata harrier?
Sir should i buy 149000 kms run skoda laura?
Hi, check if it has service records. Get a specialist / dealer to do an inspection and check the car properly.
Accordingly, negotiate the price and go ahead :-)
Hi, am planning to buy laura or superb but all mechanics are saying not ot buy as giving too many problems and maintaience cost too high pls advise
Hi, Superb and Laura (elegance and above) have complex electronics, which can cause troubles.
I recommend Ambiente or below.
Mechanically, both are very solid, if maintained properly (be cautious with the DSG variants though - can fail, and are very expensive)
Otherwise, they are rock solid cars.
I have a Laura 2009 model which I usually drive 100 kms per day with a service cost around 8 k for 10000 kms
Bro get ready to spend a few more lakhs for any problems are you are good. Also make sure RC registration is 15 years as it might become difficult to re register after the RC registration expires for diesel cars in the future.
@@JRSCars skoda superb elegance tsi mt 2010, 53000 km done with fully skoda authorised service centre service for RS : 400000- is good deal to buy.?
What are all the points to check.?
What will be the major issues in next 2 years.?
@@uthayakumar8936 bro what is the City mileage for diesel 2.0 that you get in your Laura ?
Great one!
Thanks bro!
What is your idea about pre facelift model of Skoda Laura , that mean before 2009 models....Is it really value for money by owning a 2007 model car
Yes, in my opinion it is a good car, but personally the pre-facelift had a sort of crying face to it.
Also, it had only the 1.9 pd and 1.8tsi (very rare), but with the facelift, you get the wonderful 2.0 cr tdi...
@@JRSCars thanks for your reply bro. Your videos are awesome and very detailed. Our support and love will be there for you , forever. I'm also a die-hard fan of Skoda
@@bkabishek1234 Thanks so much for the support brother :-) Will definitely try and bring more awesome content in the future :-)
Bro finally I decided to buy octavia 2008 model
@@bkabishek1234 All the best! Get it checked by a specialist /dealership for any immediate problems and negotiate the price.
Hope it serves you well :-)
In many videos they are not mentioning about bhp of old tdi Octavia
Hi, it's same as 1.9PD TDI of Laura. 105 bhp and 250 nm of torque.
@JRS Cars I searched in cardekho website .There they mentioned as bhp- 66(90) for 2000-2010 model Octavia tdi
@@bkabishek1234 Nope. They've messed the specs. Globally Octavia came with a 1.6 TDI, in India it came only with 1.9PD TDI and 1.8T petrol
@@JRSCars Bro 66(90) means 66 kilowatts (90bhp). Clarify in Google Chrome kilowatts converter.
Awesome
Hi brother.....give a detailed review about old tdi Octavia . What is the bhp of old tdi Octavia, I couldn't find . And give your personal suggestions about that car. I'm also inspired by Skoda cars and I'm in the idea of buying one Octavia
Sure. Will try to find one and review :-)
It's a good strong car. Do check service history before buying tho.
Old Skodas are only reliable if maintained well...
@@JRSCars ok brother
You are a very interesting character
Awsum review bro
Bt what about the fitness validity?
Thanks bro! It's valid till 2025. After that will have to think of something😂
My self I am getting 14 on city and 18 to 20 on highways at the speed of 80 to 💯
Awesome. Mine is tuned, as mentioned in the video. Hence, slightly lower mileage numbers
Hi , is it AT or MT ?
Plz review Nissan magnite bro!!
Will do bro!
Thank you brother , plz explain about mileage details of our laura all the variants
Hi. Diesel will be 10-12 City and 19-22 highway, depending on driving style.
Petrol 8-10 City and 15-17 highway, again depending on driving style.
@@JRSCars do you have any Laura 2.0 elegance model ?
@@JRSCars Hi , is the mileage u specified is same for 2.0 AT models also ?
Jyst completed 3 lakh kms by my laura 1.9 tdi
I have the same car but it is creating humming noise after 85km/h
Tyres or wheel bearing issues
Can you please tell about Lancer 2.0 lxd diesel.Is that 68 ps and 120 Nm torque is enough for better performance and say about the milage and weather it is value for money ..I'm in an idea of buy one for 2Lakhs and spend another 3 lakhs for making it mint condition
Hi, where are you located?
Why are you spending 2L on a car worth 50k at the max?
@@JRSCars I'm interested in buying lancer diesel .. is that value for money .what about the Power delivery...
@@JRSCars Skoda cars have high maintenance ...so I dropped that paln..I had an idea of buying Octavia mark1...but I decided to get a Lancer 2010 model ... I'm little confused of performance... Octavia 1.9 litre 90hp and lancer 2000cc but 68 hp... which is powerful.. performance of a car depends on bhp or cc
How is the clutch of this car in trafffic?
Pretty good only buddy. Bit heavy as its a diesel
Should I go with the dsg
Hi, check service records and go for a test drive with the owner, to check if they've been following the proper DSG driving steps.
Is it bs3 or bs4. Because frm 2010 bs4 was enforced if i am sure
Hi, it's bs3 only
@@JRSCars what abt laura's registered frm 2011-2013??
To my knowledge bs4 became mandatory in 2017 only. So all Laura's should be bs3 compliant only
@@JRSCars in sept 2010 Skoda Launched 2.0 TDi which came in BS4.
Anyone tell me its diesel mileage???
Hi,
Stock: City 12 - 14, Highway 18 - 22
Tuned: City 10 - 12, Highway 16 - 21
Depending on driving style..
Did you ever use any additives on your Laura?
Used liqui moly diesel additive.
@@JRSCars did you notice any difference?
@@amirshaikh6877 engine became slightly smoother. But my friend had an incident on his Laura.
So i too stopped using and recommending additives
