Genuine review given btw i am owning a skoda rapid 1.5 TDI DSG style plus 2016 variant and driven close to 90k no issues faced till date in gearbox its shifts are sleek as before 👍👍
That really instills confidence brother. Anyways just for the sake of it I have taken extended warranty so hopefully I will be covered for next 3 years in case if anything goes wrong
By far the best video I have seen on youtube for Skoda Rapid, Specially the cinematography, the sunshine adds elegance in the video, it was a delight to watch your video. Plz continue posting more such videos. BTW which is the camera/ phone that you've used to film it?? I must say the car is very very well maintained.
Thank you so much brother, I didn't intend to shoot but I just made a video to have it in my records. Glad you liked it. I used my IQOO phone. Currently my car has done 78,000km, I will make a long term ownership video for sure
@@kirank.samudrala1849 Hi bro, I'm at 1L kms +. No issues with DSG. I regularly update on teamBHP, you may search over there. Google- life with a Skoda Rapid teambhp
Video is good. Thanks for your suggestion about how to use DSG. I also use the same practice even my Slavia1.5 uses auto off feature, but due to auto AC it starts engine after sometime when cabin becomes hot.
Very natural and friendly explanation of features and review Sachin ji.. Shows your real Mamatha with your car, and thats great! Thanks for your generous explanation of all features for people looking into buy new car.
Really appreciate your detail explanation and wish you all the best for upcoming videos. Please keep uploading videos. And yes You have maintained your car well
Genuine review sir. I also own 2020 Rapid diesel manual. I get 24 kmpl mileage on highway at 100 to 110 kmph with 4 people on board. Also the service cost is way cheaper than Maruti ( I had opted the SMP package)
I know right, this 1.5 tdi is gem of an engine, it's fast and frugal at the same time. I also extended my warranty for 6 years as I didn't want to take risk with DSG, it costed 31k but I feel it's worth it specially for a complex German car
All the best for finding a well maintained one buddy. It's a Lovely car and you will love driving it. Please make sure the car you buy has service records and is in good shape. Couple of things to keep in mind- Abs sensors Suspension condition If diesel- Injectors health If DSG- It should not be missing gear or blinking gear error in display Get that extended warranty Dsg oil change at 60k kms Clutch health because it's expensive to replace I'm sure you will find a good one
i want to buy used 2nd hang skoda . so do you suggest diesel 0r petrol ? automatic is must . also i am not a daily driver . love long trips. sometimes i am away from home (MUMBAI) for months even. so is it diesel or petrol that i should go for? what should i check before buying . please please suggest. also very nice video . lots of infos compiled nicely.@Sachin Patra ? Odia ki bhai ?
If you are staying away for months then diesel is a bad idea brother. Diesel needs to be driven every 10days or so, because if not used for long then diesel injectors migh develop problems. Go for petrol auto 1.6 if your budget is a constraint or of you can be bit liberal with your budget then 1.0TSI auto is a hoot to drive. Things to keep in mind -check service records, very important for Skoda -look for signs if vehicle has been used with care or abused -check for suspension as complete overhaul will cost 50k -check for ABS sensor errors in mid or hook it to vcds and see if there are any errors -steering rake, listen if it's rattling If you can find a clean and well maintained Skoda, it will keep you happy for long. And I'm from Chhattisgarh bro. I do travel to Odisa once in a while, I have been to Sambalpur, bhubaneswar, Cuttack, puri
Hi Sachin, Thanks for detailed review, just I want to ask when you turn your car on and open the oil gauge does it show smoke coming out of it? If yes then, is it normal in rapid, what is opinion of service centre people? Cause I am planning to buy pre-owned one.
@@yogeshmali7838 hey buddy, I just reached home and I tried pulling the dipstick out when engine was running, there was very minute smoke coming from the engine. Just a little smoke, nothing major as such. Hope it helps 👍🏼

You will have to buy it from your service centre. It comes along with the bumper fitting bracket. It should cost you around 8-10k but it's worth the investment. It cover the entire engine. Please go through my teambhp review, I have posted the pictures of the same
@@DrArnabSahoo scroll down the following link of teambhp, you will see I have posted a picture of the underbody cover from the front angle.

D3-D2 transition is jerky when driven at City speeds. Initially I was worried about it but when I took my car to service centre and also drove other DSG equipped cars, I realised that DSG is inherently jerky at city speeds. If you feel DSG is missing gears or gear position is blinking in your mid, then something might be wrong. Or else minor jerk at speeds upto 20kmph is normal
Bhai 4-5.5 lacs ( if first owner) depending on the condition. Bhai dekho Skoda VW aisi cars h k kisi ne acche se maintain ki h, tabhi lena, or else avoid kare wo car. And since you are saying it's a diesel automatic so DSG wali car h, please check kar lo k DSG me kya kaam hua h ya nahi, car highways me chali h to better h agar city use jaada hua h to wear and tear bhi zaada hoga. And 1,80,000kms is high for DSG equipped car so expect DSG mechatronics ya clutch pack ka kaam mamgegi hi car. So keep atleast 1-2 lac for maintenance, worst case me jarurat pad skti h apko. And parts are expensive too because parts mostly Austria Germany me hi bante h. All the best, don't stick to one car, keep looking for alternative also. My honest advice - 1.8L kms run DSG maybe risky
@@Ganguly2537 Hello bro... 2017 means it's a 7 year old car with 1L kms on odo that too a DSG. I would say 5.5-6.5 would be good price. But do keep in mind that once these VAG cars reach certain age, they get expensive to maintain. And if for god forbid DSG or Mechatronics fail, it's going to cost you a bomb. My honest advice, buy only when the cindition is good and buy the car with an open mind that you may have to spend some money on it. Keep aside 1-2L for possible upkeep or repairs. For example, I have also done 1L kms in my car and I have spent Rs 1,00,000/- in the recent 6 months. Suspension is expensive, I got it overhauled for 60k and then I had to get water pump, timing kit and coolant flushing done which again costed 34k. So yes, these cars are expensive to maintain because most of the parts are sourced from Hungary, Germany, Austria etc.
1) When shifting from D mode to S Mode do you need to unpress accelerator / press break? Same question for D mode manual, Do we need to uprees accelerator/ press break when changing gear manually up / down
No no nothing, you just drive normally as you would be doing and during the drive itself you can shift to S mode or manual mode from D and also back to D from S/manual. It's only when you want to shift to neutral or parking that you would need to press brake
Depends on the condition brother, if it's a well maintained one then you can go ahead. And it's advisable that you please check the service records and also if things gets serious then get it inspected at Skoda service centre. They do these pre sale inspection for a charge and it's a worth it. Since car has done 75k kms, do keep in mind that you may be seeing some expenses like tyres, battery, clutch, suspension. Bargain accordingly and also ensure that you keep some funds in case if ths car needs some immediate attention and repair. If the car is serviced on time and well cared, then these cars are fairly reliable and can go 2L easily. Is it manual or DSG and also petrol of diesel?
Rapid DSG came with hill hold control. Unfortunately we don't have hills here but I have used this feature mostly in mall ramps and it does its job well

Brother I'm sure all these "people" who are telling you not buy Skoda are the ones who don't own Skoda themselves. I would suggest go ahead and buy one and also please buy the "service package". It will cost you 25k and you don't have to pay for next 4 years. If you do the math it's very reasonable on per year basis. Plus Slavia/Kushaq are highly localised so that has already brought down the cost. Take a test drive and you will come impressed. The only cost would be your tyres, battery, insurance which is something you will have to pay in every car, rest service would be covered under the package.
Thank you brother. That was a real great advice. I have taken the test drive of slavia I am pretty much impressed. The only thing which I felt bad was skoda removing some cool features like subwoofer and 10 inch infotainment system. Rest all the car have bonkers performance.

1. Car is not well maintained
2. You are used to faster cars with 200 bhp like Octavia, 320d

Btw I drove an automatic car for the first time maybe I didn't knew how to push I just pushed the accelerator to full depth didn't feel the punch
@@960gaming I guess you did right, you have to press the accelerator fully and DSG will downshift and bang, you will get that pushed into the seat! Feeling. If that car didn't do it, stay away from it. It was a diesel automatic right? If it was a petrol 1.6 Auto then that is lethargic engine, can't expect much from it. But if it indeed was a diesel auto then there is something wrong with the car.
Hm sale kr h 2017 last yr car
Want to sale
I'm not going to sell my Rapid bro because even for 30L budget, I'm not going to get a diesel automatic car which is fun to drive and efficient at the same time. The only upgrade I feel is the big Germans but I don't have the budget at the moment
