  1. Yeah the cost is quite high. Just because it’s local to me and it’s a high spec one and 4x4. It will mainly be for knocking around London, and going to up to Leeds and back once a month.
  2. Thank you for the thorough reply and pointers! Very much appreciated. Would you advise manually looking at the DPF or just through vcds?
  3. Hey gang, hope you’re well. Looking to move from a Fabia Estate to a Superb Estate (mainly because the DQ200 DSG gearbox mechatronic is proving troublesome and leaky. Had it refurbished twice now in 2 years) plus had a baby so wanting a bigger car. what’s your take on the car below? Is the engine fairly reliable in that model year? Is the DSG on the 2 litre engines more reliable? Should I be looking at a new clutch pack with this kind of mileage? Basically anything to be aware of? I work on my own cars for the most part and do/ will do a lot of research on the engine so that I will hopefully know what to look out for when I go see it, but I can’t buy the experience you all have here. thank you in advance! http://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202401105428195
  4. I’m also tight. 😅 just want a reliable little petrol automatic for London driving. I service and repair my engines like OCD, but auto boxes are beyond me.
  5. I think I’m gonna make the switch to bmw. They ZF auto box seems to have a much better rep for reliability
  6. Is it right that they only fit the dq250 on 2 litre engines and up? Would really like a small engine automatic. London traffic isn’t friendly on the pocket with a big car
  7. I got my unit refurbed. About 15-20k miles ago. £700. Garage offers 6months no quibble. do you now if this gearbox has had the flaw sorted out by a certain year? I don’t want to go back to a manual, but I don’t want this happening every year or so either. Any reliable Dsg boxes out there?? For a budget friendly car anyway 😅
  8. I stand corrected. Oil leaking from gearbox unit. 18 months it lasted 😞
  9. Hi Everyone, my 2012 1.2 tsi fabia gear indicator and spanner symbol have started flashing alternately. Any ideas? Isn’t showing anything on my OBD2. And it isn’t the Mechatronic as I just had that replaced 6k miles ago. M Thanks in advance. Car has done 100k miles.
  10. Hi Ross! Sorry for my tardiness! Nope, I'll still be coming to you. Just with it needing to be on a Saturday, it's been difficult finding the time 😞 I'll get there! In the next month or all being well! Sorry again
