A great outcome, although disappointed to hear of the initially poor response from Skoda.

Happy memories - I had a fair few manual choke equipped 'Breadvan Polo's which were a joy to operate, especially when compared with later Autochoke (? Pierburg) carb versions👍

Similarly - no sign of MPG improving with age in an owned-from-new Yeti 2.0 TDi (80k miles in total).

The 'loosening up over time' is a phenomenon I've never actually seen in practice. This represents the first 17k miles of 1.5 TSi manual Karoq ownership: On very short journeys I typically see similar (mid 20's) MPG👍

My 2023 1.5 TSi Karoq SE-L announced I'd owned it exactly 365 days yesterday by informing me online services had expired and requested a mere £76 for the privilege of a 1 year extension 😀 Planning to see if I miss it before parting with the readies👍

Nearly at the end of a tank of Shell V-Power E5 and no appreciable difference in resistance to stalling, performance or economy😕 Next step will be to consider a pedal box (or a different car altogether!)

I believe the Audi flat blue differs from Energy Blue ?

Same here - spent the cost of paint on Winter Pack+ Worth every penny - 4 heated seats and wouldn't want to be without a heated windscreen👌

A local road earlier. Looking at that crash I guess there is something to be said for new cars having mandatory emergency autonomous braking as standard 🤔 I'm guessing the rear most car (? a Skoda) braked autonomously.

150 miles in on Shell V-Power E5 and no noticeable change in stalling characteristics.
-
Just got through the first tank of E5 with no noticeable improvement in stall resistance, although as the last tank was Tesco Momentum 99 I'm giving a tank of Shell V-Power E5 a go - @£1.649/litre 😬 Will report back

On my 20231.5 TSi SE-L (smaller virtual cockpit) a blue symbol stating 'eco' lights up in the bottom right hand corner, whenever it runs in 2 cylinder mode, irrespective of dash configuration. Without the symbol indicating it is running in this mode I wouldn't otherwise be aware as there is no change in engine note. I find it a little distracting though as I often mistake the symbol for main beam!
