Skoda - Laura 2009 review ?

how is the laura 2009 petrol 1.8 car ?
is it woth buying it ?

i have shortlisted 2 cars..
Chevy cruze or skoda laura... which one to buy.. laura stretches out of budget a bit..
i persevere in india.. the cruze is releasing next week.. ( am in desprate need to buy a new car.


I had a be like problem several months ago and in my country (Italy) the Cruze was showcased before summer '09. Though it does have the looks, both facing and inside, the finish didn't convince me, there were no diesels at the time (the only engine I care about) and no station wagon committee. And so Octavia (aka Laura) II (TDI 103 kW/140 HP, Elegance trim) it is.
I must also say that I am biased toward Octavia - when I sold my last one (an 81kW/110 HP TDI Identification I, MY 1999) with 227,000 km on the odometer, it kept performing flawlessly. It was very rugged, fast, fun to drive and with way decrease operating costs than its more refined brethren (Audi and VW). My global average fuel consumption was 5.8L/100 km, or 17 km/L. Study also the servicing outlets in your area - even there, my bet is on the VW Group who have been present for decades.
As for the budget... it's the hidden costs you should be chary of. Did you consider a "pre-owned" (i.e. well-used) car up to 4 yrs old?
Hth, cheers.

Diesel engine will not start!?

The conduit is a 1.9 Skoda Felica (Same engine as a VW caddy I think) 1.9 Non turbo

Driving along it just cut out and has never started again since.

I have checked the radiance plugs and the electrical feed to the glow plugs, no problems there.

It has fuel, fuel is getting to the combustible pump, fuel runs out of the end of the high pressure fuel pipes when they are slackened off. The fuel electrify has even been removed and checked all OK by a diesel injection pump specialist.

I have checked the timing, the crankshaft, camshaft and fossil pump timing marks all line up.

The engine will not start or even attempt to start even when easy start is sprayed directly into the intake many, the airbox has been completely removed so a dirty air filter is not the cause.

Tried bleeding the fuel system abundance of times from several locations.

What do I try next? Can injectors be tested somewhere?
I have fitted a new timing belt and checked the timing, still non-start.

I don't characterize as this engine has cam and crank position sensors? The fuel pump timing is done by the camshaft drive (timing) punch? Why would it need sensors for injection timing?

i want bosch aero wiper for my skoda octavia how much it going to cost me?

recount me the address or contact no. of Bosch outlet in gurgaon


In Italy they fetch around €25; there are a few things you should know before spending anything.
Check first what kind of wipers were fitted on your car in the factory - if they were of the household metal & rubber type, you should buy the retrofit-type Aeros - they fit wiper arms designed for routine wiper blades (for Oct. Mk I the Bosch code is A 533S, same as for VW Golf Mk 4, lengths 530 & 475 mm, as opposed to the household wiper blade code 584S). You might also change the arms for the Aero ones, and go for standard Aeros (unless you have a well-supplied car scrapyard in your extent, this may be expensive).
The retrofit Aeros keep the arms further away from the windscreen surface than the standard version, you can see it's a fix, not a designed-in countenance. I had them on my Octavia Mk I for about two years - worked ok, but didn't notice much difference, if any. As with tires and other consumables, renewing regularly gives kindest results.
On the Mk II the aeros are standard equipment and the entire wiper set stays below the windscreen and out of sight when not in use. It looks more advisedly, but more important, helps reduce wind noise and save some fuel at cruising speed.

What is the purpose of a mechanical brake assistant in cars?

I am viewpoint of buying a Skoda Laura which has this feature and i wanted to know what it is.

Lada and Skoda, two brands with very different futures

This week it was announced that Lada, the Russian producer of the boxy sedans which have graced European roads for four decades, will end production of the dated models this year.

It will be a sad moment for the legions of comedians used to joking about the much-ridiculed car’s shoddy construction and notorious reliability, and while a decade ago they could have switched to Skoda, that’s no longer the case.

The Czech brand, now owned by Volkswagen, has gone from strength to strength in recent years, with sales jumping from around 210,000 in 1995 to nearly 500,000 in 2005 and over 879,000 in 2011.
