Seems to like a regen....probably, it was some kind of interruption during this process

Greece is not the best criterion, but so far, the 4x4 2.0LT tdi version, has shown no malfunction...8 months, 19.000 km...although to be honest, I am not accustomed to it much, so it has been used have of the time...

I believe so...usually stuff where electronics are involved, either work since very beginning, or they don't ... but I would place it the same way, but from different point view...it's not that I am lucky, rather seems that, unfortunately, you, were unlucky....anyway, I hope you find the best solution that fits you soon

It is true that I have heard so from others as well....and it was my biggest worry, at the time of delivery...but so far, knock on wood, seems to be a false alarm....

I think you exaggerate a bit, when you say it is a death trap... First of all, Lane assist is mandatory....and the fact that you don t find helpful, doesn't mean that it is not for others... Next, the speed warning is not that loud at all, except of being mandatory too. If it is not connected to your sound system, then you barely can hear it... Regarding virtual pedal now, it is true that it has happened to me a couple of times...but there is a reason...like you said you were organizing stuff in the boot..at this moment feet, are exactly facing the virtual pedal sensor, and their motion is read as a command to close...it is a matter of getting used to it and treat it accordingly.... Finally, regarding AEB, it is true that I have heard so from a couple of drivers, but personally, it has been engaged a couple of times, that really needed to... Other than that, I find it to be one of the best cars I ve ever had, which of course isn't quite a reliable criterion, but among other drivers I know, it is far one of the best in its class...

So you have the 204 2.0 tsi...and yes, the 265, is the rs...anyway, 12 l around city stands between normal and bottom high...but I guess, you should expect something like that, from an almost 2 ton car...besides, after my small ownership, and paying attention to other's comments, this is not the best suited city car...in city center and around , my diesel writes around 8-8.5...so, 10+should be considered as expected...the vrs, gets around 12-13 l in city, and around 10 on motorway, if not pushed hard...otherwise, you can easily get around 14-15 l/100kmh...the car is big enough to expect something less...maybe the hybrids, but in that case, they are non awd...that s why most recommend diesel as the most suitable powertrain for this car...for me there was no alternative to diesel, as it is the only awd imported to Greece...

I meant 0-100, not 9-100, and difference, not differ!!!

Is true indeed, that vrs gets unacceptable consumption, which has been noticed by many users and reviewers worldwide, while the main difference in every day acceleration from the tdi, is not that clear....obviously I am not referring to 9-100 that there is 1+ sec difference...but 4-5 liters differ, IS a big deal....

With 2 liter tdi 193 4x4, plus abt box 220 ps, I get roughly 6 l/100km on motorway with 120 km/h, and the same in urban style country roads with 90-100 km/h

2liter petrol 204 or 265?

Maybe this is why it s happening...here, in Greece, warmer climate, less need for heat, so only steering wheel, heats on automatically...this is the reason also why there is no stationary heating available...

Which country?

I have noticed the steering wheel heating, when internal temperature is below 10...everything is set to default...not sure if there is a possibility for further customisation...

You should keep also in mind that a "low pressure detected" signal comes upon every 10.000 kms, without reason, just to put on the right way drivers like me, who rarely check tyre pressures...i just check how car behaves, and thats it...it is not correct, for sure,but.....anyway, since system has this function, it is very good, since 10.000 kms for me is 3 months time....when it happened for the first time, i was scared, stopped aside, saw nothing wrong, and continued carefully, although nothing had changed regarding car behaviour....the next day i checked pressures, finding very low loss in every tyre, which is normal for 4 months period...i thought it was some kind of electronic malfunction...but checked manual, where it is a clear mention of the "10.000 km" rule....so now, i know...and i check

Not with the Kodiaq in general... "Your" Kodiaq maybe.....my Kodiaq "remembered" the existence of aeb just a couple of times during parking process, and were absolutely justified, as there were a couple of pedestrians that I had not seen....and once more during driving, where I was trying to fasten seat belt during driving over me jacket, and aeb got involved as soon as it realised I had raised myself from the seat for a second.....other than that, no issues at all...quite a few times red warning of an oncoming collision, but no action....cross fingers....6 months, 14.000 Kms, no problems....
