Hi all, had the skoda for 2 weeks now and have noticed that the fuel range drops down very quickly, for example today before setting off the gauge said 360 miles of range, less than 2 miles up the road it had dropped to 340 miles of range, then it went up to 345, by the time i had returned home after driving 30 miles, it said the range was 305 miles. Personally i would of thought it would of been about 320 as the journey back was stop start. I have spoken to the dealer who have said that the range does go up and down like all other cars. To me that is quite a bit drop on the range for only have driven 30 miles. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.

Thanks everybody for your replies. I just find it strange the Skoda use a black engine oil dipstick, especially when the oil gets darker as you do more mileage.

Hi all, just bought a 1.0 Kamiq and find it strange that the Kamiq engine oil dipstick is black plastic and not steel like other cars that i have had. I find it difficult to see where the actual oil level is when checking it. Does anyone know if you can get a steel dipstick or do any other vehicles in the VAG Group use the same dipstick but in steel ?.
