In today's video we check over all the issues I've found with the Skoda Octavia VRS and start rectifying them, but at what cost?
Make sure you either replace the flywheel bolts (WHT 009 773 for dual mass flywheel) and use green loctite (VW part number D 200 005 A2), The oil was probably leaking through the bolts and who ever fitted the clutch thought it was the crank seal and replaced it (and made an arse out of it)...
top tip here make sure you read people!!
Should have listed the TPI number too 😀
Love the voiceover bits, makes the timelapse so much more involving. Good work Dean ☺️
Agree
Hi from Czech Republic. :) It is awesome to see you repairing that poor car. I cant imagine what maniac could thrash it like this. I have 2016 Škoda Superb combi and it is like third child to me. :D
What engine and trim level is your superb if I may ask?
@@Schluker Hi. 2.0 TDI 110kW. The specification is kinda weird. It was probably custom order because it has a lot of options, like lane assist, dynamic light assist, heated front window etc., but some options like keyless entry or adaptive cruise control is missing.
@@Nastrelak I like that engine in superb. It has just enough power and is great in fuel efficiency. I would love to know your VIN since I am able to check the hell out of your car based on it 😅 you can DM me if you would like to find a bit more about your baby..
Concerning the main seal tool. Use the timing pin with the black knob for diesel engines. The red one is for gasoline engines. (Some places one the web, they got this wrong, even at one of the places they sell them). And remember to lock the engine on TDC. You have to take of the cam belt cover and the pulley.
I really look forward to his uploads, it's a shame they're not every day really! 😄
I just found your channel yesterday and i have to say your videos are an absolute pleasure to watch. Educational and just straight to the point. Keep it up!
Thanks mate! 😁
Another great episode. Just a thought about the broken grill .... why not use loctite super glue power gel to repair the broken grill section. Any excess glue can be removed with nail varnish remover. Money saved could go towards a respray.
Congrats on 100k Dean, Very well deserved! thoroughly enjoy all your videos!
I have just started to watch this channel and wanted to say that I like the way it's a lot more of a realistic than alot of other channels cause you show all your problems and things like not having every tool for every job. I am not going back to binge your old videos.
The part that you thought was AdBlue injector is an exhaust backpressure generating flap for the EGR system. Ad Blue injector if present is located on top side of DPF next to timing belt cover on left hand drive cars. The rear main seal has to be fitted with engine in TDC as the tone ring for the crank sensor has to be in correct location. Also install the seal as dry as possible, teflon seals will leak if there is oil or grease on contact surfaces.
Skoda skills for sure
@@Mike_5 I fix Volkswagen-Audi group cars for living.
Yeah I was getting carried away with some cars and vans having the injector in the exhaust, that will teach me not to check 😂
@@SavingSalvage have you a link to the bolt biter set?
@@aaronmcpherson213 click the Amazon store link and search for bolt biters in the search bar bud 👍🏽
Happy days Dean..Over 100k....Well deserved...
Good video but that’s not an ad blue injector it’s an exhaust valve to build up pressure and temp when doing a dpf regen
And for EGR flow probably
Shame you can’t just decat them and strip out all the emissions stuff 😂
@Luckyadam331 that's a lot to do for a device with one electrical connection
@@9595luke You can
@Luckyadam331 of course it can be injector for fuel or adblue, but it has to be before DPF, here its just straight pipe after it and if there is any fluid injection, there is going to be fuel/liquid line connected to it, plus electrical connection.
Dean try Silverline for car parts. They seem to stock some in colour body parts. Congratulations on 100k subscribers 👊 Skoda a great run around when you've sorted it.
Hi Dean I’m not 100%sure but I think you will need to set the timing to TDC before fitting the rear crank shaft seal as from memory the sensor attached to the oil seal sends a pulse to the ECU telling it the position of the pistons so the injectors can spray the fuel at the correct time or something like that I know if it’s out of alignment it won’t run correctly🤔the blue tab at the top is to stop the pulse ring from coming out and to make sure it’s 100%in the correct place when fitting it,, Great uploads by the way an very interesting content👍👍
Yeah you do have to set the timing, I’ll do all that in the next episode 👍🏽
Was going to comment the same. Made that mistake on a pd170. 🤦🏻♂️
Same, hahaha did not start… had to remove te gearbox again….😢😂
@@vistkri yep! Ballache 😂
Well done on keeping cheerful with this one. You're going to need to replace a wheel or two I would have thought. It's sad that the car's been so abused. Drug runner's car?
Something else worth noting when it comes to DPF. If the car has any fault codes stored in the PCM, then the car won't do its auto regen. ALL faults have to be rectified until the regen can then take place. This goes for forced regen too. Understanding how DPF systems work is key to figuring out what is going on. I've seen so much money thrown down the drain when DPF's have been replaced when infact the actual fault was in the pressure sensor giving a false reading. This proves have live data and pressure testers to back up what the scan tool is saying is key.
Adblue and DPF delete is the way to go on this car mate. My colleague has one, runs like a dream.
Those heat marks on the flywheel will be high and rock hard, get it skimmed at your local engineering firm 👍
Cant wait for the next videos of this series. Could you possibly make detailed video of aligning bonnet/headlights/front bumper? I got vRS like this myself, but I find the gap between bonnet and bumper too big for my taste. I also see many Oct3 with gap like that all around me, but it's annoying me as hell. Great content tho.
Dean, just stumbled across your channel today and thought you looked really familiar.... And now I know why, we went to school together and lived in the same village! Enjoying the content and videos, keep it up.
I'm sure the limit is 40g for regen .Once it goes over that level it disables regen Spray some dpf cleaner . Reset ash value and it will reset soot values the perform regen. Also check live data for differntial pressure sensor " key on engine off " should be 0 mbar idle should be no higher than 10 mbar on a clean dpf. A bit late now but you could have got an elring seal oem for about £50
I so like your time lapse and commentary, I thought it was just me that encounters disaster faults in cars! You give me confidence and reassurance, keep up the good work and slick vids.🚗🚗🚗🚗🚗
you are getting there Dean going to be a nice car when done looking forward to the test drive
Just found your channel Brilliant just a joy watching
Mate, if you are going to buy new grille, buy HONEYCOMB design one, it will look SIIIICK!!
Keep it going, it's a really really good car. 😉
I like the way you explain and show the detail of your repairs but knowing VW group cars you must like a challenge. I know someone who has spent a lot on their Ausi S3 after water pump leaked and rear diff locked up even though the Haldex had been serviced. I got rid of my S3 as its value was mose diving and seemed to have the common issue waiting to happen with the water pump showing signs of leaking. I loved the car but with Audi's you need deep pockets.
oh and well done on the timelapse voice-over i wish everyone done that . maybe you will set a new trend . well done dean great episode
Another failure is the crank position sensor as well. Handy replacing while the gearbox is off the car. To replace when back together could be 5 hours labour and a make shift allen key to get it out without removing gearbox 👍
Great vid dude and explaining how to do things is what keeps it interesting, teaches people a lot of stuff 👍
Good evening young man, love watching your posts and why do people do things like silicone it's so annoying dean obviously it's Never going to work, ive been following you a couple of months now and massive respect fella i watched your post when you showed your normal routine picking cars up and the hours you put in a day and you have someone helping you out with that now, but it's all money isn't it and obviously you're kids,I really hope you achieve what you want to at the end of the day well done and i will definitely keep watching thanks for sharing
Thanks Kevin! Appreciate the support 😁
Funny coincidence, I actually watched that video today as well. I'm a courier, so I do a lot of driving as well, but I'd love to shift over to doing something like Dean.
@@MrManBuzz hi there, I'm 60 year old now and not working but used to be a wagon driver and when Dean's postcode was wrong and it wasted some of his time i was like omg brings back memories and it can ruin your day when on the tachograph really feel for him
Congratulations on 100k well deserved you work hard. Great videos asall ways thanks for up loads mate keep it moving. 👍👍
Dean buy an egr valve blanking plate to custom make the plate as a restrictor plate also try using diesel fuel cleaner and dpf cleaner which the cleaner gets poured in the fuel tank
Wheels and tyres look like they've been damaged on inside rim by forklifts in Copart. Seen it many times before.
Just found your channel btw. Great work
You are some talented mechanic. Hats off.
No need to apologise still very interesting even getting to this stage. Looking forward to seeing the funky tool!
I can't believe it's £170 for the rear main oil seal, at least it was easy to change considering the circumstances. Good result to find a new clutch in there, you seemed happy with the flywheel on the test drive so hopefully it'll be fine for years to come. I guess from the "doctored up" comment that you read my ramblings on the last video. Apologies if it offended you, hopefully you're not too bothered as you got the car cheap as a result of people's reluctance. I've been burned too many times on salvage cars over the years, I could start a RUclips channel about it but no-one would want to see me grumpy all the time! I think you did alright on this one but the costs are rising fast, hopefully you can find someone breaking one in colour and you can get the bumpers, wing and a piece of OS sill for a fair price. Keep up the good work and congrats on the 100k subs, I'm looking forward to seeing the plaque on the wall!
I don´t know if you corrected it, but your "Adblue Injektor" is just the dynamic exhaust pressure regulator for your low pressure EGR System.
Don't forget the front wing replacement in your shopping list and costs , Dean.
I am actually looking at buying one of these... Can't wait to see the outcome
Hopefully not one like that😄
@@brianbickle7395 😂 hopefully in better nick, but similar Milage so I want to see and know what to expect worst case scenario
Great video, loved the time lapse with you doing a voice over.
2:16 is actually a exhaust flap to prevent a diesel run away
Always interesting videos. Possible coolant leak from plastic flange if theres one on side of engine, seal usually fails. These are renound for failing every 4 years. Not sure about the oil though 👍
same for me
Nice one Dean
Nice to watch a sound guy
Talks sense
Great video 👍
You've got your work cut out.. with this,the m2 and tvr... but as always I be watching and cheering.. keep up with this content... love it👍
Fair play for banging that dodgy bolt in, it did demonstrate well the product cause if it hadn't have worked that would have been a world of pain
I know! 😂
Check the dpf pressure sensor, if it's broke it will give a false reading and tell the ECU that it's too sooted up to safely regen
Dean can you strip down the gearbox to show what went wrong
Smashing video and cant wait to see it finished mate .....
Great video thanks for explaining about the gearbox on our it comes apart keep the good work up many thanks
The Skoda is progressing well , great video.
Excellent Video as always. You've gotta love some good quality Skoda content.
Re: The Ad Blue... I'm a bit confused, as I've had 3 x Octavia 3 TDIs (13 plate, 15 plate 17 plate), and none had Ad blue. This was supposed to have been added to Diesels from 67 Plate onwards, so that's a big mystery? PS: Does your fuel filler flap have a second filler cap inside it?
That was only the valve from the exaust not an ad blue injector
@@corinanechifor910 Thanks for confirming. I didn't know exactly what it was, but I do now thanks to you - AND it has confirmed no Ad Blue 👍
Greetings from Sweden! Love your videos. I’m not sure that’s really the AdBlue injector you mentioned early on in the video, the injector should be placed just before the DPF if it’s equipped with it. Check next to your fuel-fill cap if you have another smaller blue cap. Hopefully you don’t 😊
Good luck with the car 👍
I was wondering the same thing. I have the My15 vrs and it doesn't use adblue.
That is correct, the object he pointed the camera at is the exhaust flap. Its a part of the low pressure egr system. When the engine is cold and you start it up the flap restricts exhaust from exiting the tail pipe and instead the exhaust gases are recirculated in the low pressure egr system and entering the intake again. This also helps the dpf and catalytic converter to build heat faster which helps with the emissions.
Great video your smashing the content at the moment keep up the great work 👍🏻
It’s had a tough life but great content. Keep up the great work
Can you plastic staple the back of the broken grill and make it look presentable?
I love sata tools, very good brand I have many sets, quality/prices is awesome.
Coming on really well!
You said you got the rear seal from Audi. I know it’s all part of the vag group, but wouldn’t the seal have been cheaper from skoda with it being a not so prestige brand.
Another superb video once again Dean take good care of yourselves won't you buddy
You don’t need special tool. If your careful when rolling seal over crank and keep blue holder in place will be fine. Some lots of these seals and been fine. You will need to put some seal in bottom crevices where it sits on sump though.
I still like the way you do these videos. keep do it. make me belive that I still can rapair car.
try resetting the ash count happens on bmws once its hit certain amount won't regenerate.
simply resetting it normal works but take it off and clean it its a better option.
Recent Subscriber. Enjoying the content. Great work.
Be good to see the cause of the gearbox failure… if you’ve not go the time or energy to strip it, just cut a window in the side so we can see!
try silverlake breakers mate, rob and chris from salvage rebuilds use em all the time
Wow that’s for the first time Ive seen Barum tyres on English car :) decent tyre manufacturer owned by michelin :)
The Grill in the bumper is changeable it is same as the kodiaq
Great content as usual thx 👌
Top work mate. Cant wait the next vid!
I've never liked those lifts since I saw two people crushed under a Rolls so was a bit concerned when you were working under the car with the engine balanced that way
great episode really enjoyable
engine has to be at top dead cence before fitting crankshaft seal metal ring
Great grip socket set and mad how much for a tool just for the rear main seal.
Should be a good car once it’s all sorted Dean!
the DPF could be contamination of the AdBlue tank just clean the tank out and put fresh adblue
Dean sounds like Paul W. :)
I think it was involved in a police chase or something. gouges from spike strips on the inside of the wheels maybe? Cannabis and rizzla down the seats, fake £20 note. It’s got side damage and front right damage which is where a T pack would be performed on
Hi Dean, I've had a couple of VRS diesels and my first one was a 66 plate and didn't have adblue and the second was a 69 plate which did, strange that your one does, was it an option at the time or has it been retro fitted ? Looking forward to the rest of your videos on this 👍
Was this direct from insurance or a private entry into copart. I think the X after the number on window is direct from what i know. Great content as always.
Private entry beware on this bad boy 😬
Yes i totally agree there. Never mind you will sort it as always and the vrs diesels are very sought after. Thanks for the reply.
2:15 - that's not adblue, it's the exhaust valve to increase backpressure. Part of the EGR system. Adblue injector would be on the top of the catalyst.
Would have been good to see you split the gearbox so we could see the problem. You might have wasted the 350 quid buying a replacement.
Had three of these and enjoyed each one. I have a rear bumper beam in my garage for a Mk 3 Octavia that was removed when a towbar was fitted if you are in need of one. Not sure if that cracked rear bumper is hiding anything behind?
If you are in need of a set of front brake pads I have a set that I intended to fit to mine, but I sold it, they are Pagid and if you want them I would send for the price of the postage as they are just gathering dust in my garage.
Really enjoyed that .
its not the rear main seal leaking theres actually a TPI for the flywheel bolts having insufficient thread lock applied it allows oil to leak past the bolts. i have removed and replaced numerous gearboxes for this issue and just replacing and applying additional threadlock fixes the issue. i have never replaced a rear main seal as 8 years as a skoda master tech. just FYI just replace the bolts and apply alot of additional threadlock
It was the rear main on this occasion, the last person who tried to diagnose the oil leak thought it was the rear main and removed it and tried to reseal it terribly. So I had to replace it
Is that really add blue because it is a 2013 model and my one is a 2014 model and mine is not add blue
There is a TSB for the oil leak which i found on my AutoData.
Cause
Engine oil leak from flywheel retaining bolts due to insufficient quantity of thread sealing compound included at manufacture.
Remedy
Parts
Retaining bolt Refer to manufacturer 6
Thread sealing compound D 000 600 A2 1
Remove transmission assembly.
Remove flywheel and discard retaining bolts.
Thoroughly clean threads on new flywheel retaining bolts and crankshaft.
Apply thread sealing compound to new flywheel retaining bolts as shown Fig.1253694.1. (I have got pic)
Refit flywheel using new retaining bolts. Ensure flywheel retaining bolts tightened to correct torque setting.
Refit transmission assembly.
Make sure you don't have to drop the sump first to put on that rear main mate.
I had a 65 plate vRS that I took to 168k. That DPF will be full of ash, and the engine will burn oil. Definitely no adblue though. Mine slurped 2l of oil per 1,000 miles by the end. I sold it for £6k in 2020. I guess it would be worth more now, despite the oil burn. Looks like a moon white or laser white front bumper has been put on a candy white car.
I like this guy no bullS**t just good explinations and getting on with it (thought i saw you in Birchington the other saturday Dean ??)
Thanks! Nope wasn’t In Kent this week
Great work dean
damn i wish i learned something like that when i was younger
I looked in the first part when you started the car, and now in the garage, it seems to me that there is no coolant in it!!!
According to WV regulations, coolant liquid is bright pink and should be visible in the container.
Check it!
(I own a Skoda Octavia Combi 2017, 2.0 CRTDI)
Would the fitting instructions be the same for the seal on the timing belt side no silicone just correct torque ? If so do u have torque specs for that please . Thank you and keep up the good work
I dont understand why a 63 plate car would have Ad Blu. Would that not be fitted on cars after 2016 at the earliest?
Yes this is weird?
Great video always interesting 👌
change the flywheel directly , buy a bosch insted .
Great video look forward to next one. 👍👍👍👍👍
What is the prize? Cheers
Are you sure it’s done only 131k miles? Is it clocked? My Passat 240 looks in far better condition at 160k.
the rear seal is just a bandaid. Its caused by excessive crank case pressure , blow by at the piston rings or valve seals turned plastic. Or both.
The leak was caused by the shocking way it was installed. Previous repair that was
@@SavingSalvage theres a reason they had to replace it...you will find leaks at the front seal and valve cover too.
