No problem, problem solved. They only coast from Sportline trim upwards or if DCC is chosen as an option. Still managed 60mpg over 300 miles today!

I have used it for the last 7 years without ever feeling out of control. I suspect VAG would not get type approval for the many cars which do this if it was still considered hazardous.

Cedwig, Thanks so much for this. That explains why the demo model does it and mine does not. Graham

Hi CFB I have only just joined the forum so I cannot send you a pm. My Kodiaq is a nearly new Mk 2 2.0TDI SEL and refuses to coast. The dealers told me it was disabled on all 2.0tdi - might you be able to ping me a pm in which you reveal the reg number so I can show them evidence of a similar car doing that? Thanks. Graham.

I am returning after 25 years away. My Fabia has probably been crushed by now but I have returned from VW to Skoda with a Mk2 Kodiaq.
