200ps Diesel vs 190ps Petrol - Superb mk3 facelift post 2021
Hello, I got myself a 200ps tdi at the beginning of this year and so far I don't regret it one bit, but then again I haven't tried the 280 or 190 tsi-s. It replaced my previous 150ps tsi Octavia which I also loved, but this car had most of the bells and whistles I'd dreamed of and more power than the previous so not going to tempt myself with the tsi-s for quite a while. In regards to driving, it's my first automatic diesel and to me the throttle response on the regular "D" profile felt a bit sluggish, since I don't like to drive in "Sport" mode all the time like some people suggest. I got around that by reading the forum and doing a suggested adaptation to change the throttle response profile from "Incremental" to "Direct" and for me at least that improved the feel quite a bit. I don't know the difference in 0-60 for the 200ps tdi and 190ps tsi but I can say that you'll certainly feel the difference in power from your current 150ps, I certainly did and it hasn't left me wanting, I've had no problems passing other cars even when fully loaded. When doing research before committing to my car I found a reddit thread when googling, you'll find it with the name "VW EA288 2.0 TDI things to know before buying" and that gave me some good hints on what to check. Go take both the 200 and 190 for a stroll and who knows, maybe you'll favour one more than the other, making this an easy choice for you Best of luck on your car search!

Genuine or fake filters?
Hey, have you considered buying from aeromotors website? When you search for the original part code it provides original parts when available and also alternatives as well. For example the cabin air filter alternatives produced by mahle for ~10-15€ and by mann for ~12-15€. Personally I use non-VW branded filters produced by the OEM that supplies them for VW anyway, you save money and don't have to wonder if the parts you got are counterfeit.
