I have a 1.5 DSG Scala and I do 15,000kms per year. Mostly work commute which is a mix of motorway and congested traffic, plus 2 adults in the car. My long term average is 5.6L/100Kms. I'm mostly under 6L/100 on average for a normal working week and on road triips away or clear motorway I can get 5L/100. Best is 4.5l/100 I think that is about 50+ UK MPG long term? Im really happy with the economy. My Prius owing colleague is impressed

yep, I hear it too but only if it is quiet (like if im stopped or im driving slowly). I don't notice it otherwise if the rain is heavier or there is road noise.

Its the same sticker on my 1.5 TSI. We use PSI (one of the few things not metric for some reason here). So I put in 34 PSI on the 17inch wheels - runs nicely on that.

So my third visit into the dealer for this issue . They replaced the blades again and already replaced the arm, but this time they also polished the glass with a compound to smooth it out. They said sometimes as part of manufacture process the screen is not 100% smooth and the polishing process should sort it. They tested after for quite a while in their wash bay with plain water and the problem was gone. Apparently they have seen it happen before. The glass seems clearer now, but the proof will be driving in the rain which I haven't done as yet, So I'll see if it lasts. Hopefully this time it is fixed

I'm not sure - the car came straight off the boat to New Zealand from Europe and I dont know if anything is changed.. Its the same engine so I assume its same or very close.

I've had the 1.5 DSG since March, with 8500kms never had an issue. I feel its a great gearbox and works well with the engine. Especially in Sport Mode The Turbo lag is fine, power is good and im currently running 5.8L/100kms which is awesome.

I read a comment from someone saying there is a hidden usb-c port in the rear view mirror housing so you can connect a dashcam. Does anyone know if there is any truth to this? I dare not try to dissasemble mine to check unless its true and I get an idea how to do it. I cant find info online about it. It would be nice not to run a cable from the other usb ports. I've asked the poster about it and will await reply too
