@cogggo ? What happened, a warning light, a MOT failure, a sensor issue?

@RQ92Welcome. Have you spoken to the Manager or Dealer Principal where you bought the car or just Sales Staff? Can you name who it was bought from. Mis-selling / advertising is a serious matter, for them.

Best take out an extended warranty when yours expires. There are people that can repair the MCU's and VW Group will hopefully be required in Australia, New Zealand and other World Regions to accept there are Design, Manufacturing or material faults and like in 2012 with the DQ200 in some countries like China put a 100,000 mile / 10 year warranty on them. http://briskoda.net/forums/topic/509101-dsg-in-emergency-mode-in-the-cold The DQ381,s are not just used in 2.0 TSI or TDI's, also in some 1.5 TSI's FWD or AWD. Lots of them out there in VW,s, Audi,s, Seats & Skoda,s.

Google would be the way to find them. Other search engines are available. Amazon, Ebay, other online sellers are available, or Local or online Motor Factors.

Welcome. No idea, others will know, but do you not need to get a rear light cluster for a Right Hand Drive car with a fog light on the offside, or is there a bulb holder and bulb and the correct lens already fitted. If there is does that not just need coded to the Countries setting that requires 2 rear fog lights?

Sometimes a Black Merc, today the Silver SUV. Locked in for hours, no longer charging and the guy in an Ioniq 5 needs to sit on the AC getting 11 kW only as that is all that is available unless going trying the other charging hubs. Which happen to have the same sort of muppets locked in. That is what happens with no Max Charging times.

Easy enough at a scrap yard. Or as many here have old cars and projects, see how much that 45, 50, 55 litre or even 60 litre tank takes. The tanks are there for people to try. The Manufacturers are giving a tank capacity. Not a fuel capacity, and the litres that get used before a gauge even shifts, as many post about like in a Moment of joy thread yesterday. Off Topic Section. Easier is when you collect a car with near no fuel in is fill it up and see how far you go. Then when you fill up with it showing zero but the car is still running because it has fuel how much does it take to get back to full. Does a journalist picking up a near empty car put it back full, or near full. Picking up a hire or courtesy car filled up you might well do, well as much as you need to put in.

There are 2 oils in your DSG and neither has a service interval. No schedule, guidelines it recommendations to change the oil so leave alone. Ask them to tell you what is on their system as far as done. Including any warranty work done. Brake fluid is at 3 years then each 2 years. Or the mechanic can check the fluid for H2O content. The coolant strength can be checked. No point throwing money at changing stuff not requiring changing. Wasteful and not Green. Service as require by use and as preventative maintenance. Keep Money for oil and filter changes, brake servicing,. Including fluid when needed, tyres, wipers etc. Maybe the cambelt replacement is the expense you need to prepare for if following Skoda / VW guidance. Your DSG is a DQ200 7 speed twin dry clutch.

Fair enough if they can not be vented. Take the tank out the car and put it on the ground and the tanks capacity will be 66 litres and some more. Once in the car there is more fuel than that goes in and in smaller cars that can be 5-7 litres or more. 'Up the pipes' from the tank to what you see if you are brimming it. So if someone is getting good fuel consumption like over 60 mpg even 70 mpg and has a range of 0 left then it is good if they just say how much fuel they put in to brim it back to where there were before running it to zero. An interesting post by @EC73LDN I wonder if they have replicated that amount at a refill. http://briskoda.net/forums/topic/345599-increae-in-size-of-fuel-tank http://briskoda.net/forums/topic/408362-fuel-tank-capacity

90,000 km, so just under 56,000 miles was what they put on.

Small point. The Tesco Momentum 99 might always be the same as in a minimum 99 octane on some areas. Well i just know what can be delivered in Scotland which can be as much as 102 octane. That will be when it came in from Continental Europe as is for Winter formulation, 100* or 102, this can happen with Shell v-power as well as Greenergy and Shell do import fuels to depots as partners, and this is to the ports if not fuel from Refineries like Grangemouth and their distribution. There are parts of the UK that Greenergy do not supply the ESSO fuels in, so it is not the same nation wide.

A mod can move your post to the Mk1 section. i will flag it for them.

They are 192 PS. As a minimum on 95 ron. They never cheated on that. What i am saying is that the supposedly heavier DSG model with the lesser Nm torque out performs the supposedly lighter manual. VW got away with the Unladen weight of the Polo & Ibiza Twinchargers at launch which needed to be revised and also the emission / VED band's that they got compared to the lighter sister car on narrower tyres. VW Engineering, manipulated the figures. Plenty or us run Stage 1 or stage 1.4 TSI Twinchargers with over 205 bhp and over 320 Nm with standard Clucth Packs or uprated & standard or uprated mapping of the DSG's.

More than the 3 wires to sort out there.

@m1kemex Must does not come into it. & you are missing something. In 2015 the Polo GTI 1.8 TSI 192 ps got a DQ200 DSG. 7 Speed Twin Dry clutch. VW had not started production DQ380 or DQ381 7 speeds yet. Members here had them, some had Mk2 vRS Fabia 1.4 TSI Twinchargers with a DQ200 DSG before them. The thing is when you dyno it the figures are fiction. Including kerb weights.

It matters what acceleration the vehicle has and no idea if @PetrolDave,s 1.8TSI / 180 ps is just a FWD and has a DQ200, but even in a DQ250 it will likely drop 2 gears and move a bit quicker than a more powerful diesel that might well need to wind it's self up. A DQ200 really does have good points fitted to engines with small turbos. The quick reaction to the accelerator can be an issue with the 1.0 or 1.2 even 1.4 or 1.5 as in wheel spin from a standing start, a rolling start is not the same though. These were / are 192 ps.

The SMMT figures for sales (First Registration) in the UK in January 2023 for all manufacturers has more sales to Fleet & Business than private sales. That does not show just Skoda at the moment though.

Using Cruise Control is not helping your economy on the A90 in either direction. Or anyplace else. I know from driving it for over 40 years. I better Cruise Control by using the accelerator my self on any route.

They will fill the arches more, but that is really not the issue. It might be an issue though. What country are you in? & what engine / gearbox do you have, What model of Mk2 Superb?

^^^ They do not know how true either, but they do seem to keep repeating it. Could it be that salespeople think it is what a customer that might order from them wants to hear?

It has been a milder winter in Scotland but still a winter. Hopefully once the weather is warmer the fuel economy will be better again.

There you go, coast downhill, power up hill & just use nearly no fuel on the flat once at speed. That is why a 1.0 TSI 115 ps can be more economic than a 2.0 TSI 245 ps but journeys take the same time.

? What miles per litre or MPG does it get when doing journeys of over 10 miles or so when the engine is getting up to temp?

Maybe post a guide on how to connect it. http://briskoda.net/forums/topic/510080-no-how-to-guides-on-here-in-this-section

You need to VW 504 00 / 507 00, so 5w 30 FS III (that is Long Life) even if doing fixed oil & filter services with a TDI) No idea about the 'M'.
