  1. Had my 2015 1.2 tsi dsg Elegance for year now and i'm swapping to another car tomorrow as I feel a bit let down with the economy. Pootling about 50 roads its ok, 40-50mpg if driven carefully. Hit the motorway and (i am guessing) the tall shape takes over and Doing 60 miles consisting of 2 mins around town, 10 mins a/b road then the rest mway at 70mph with cruise I have never cracked 40mpg. With my family in there and a bit of traffic its worse. My long term average for 10000 miles was 35mpg. Skoda had the car in for a road test and inspection and said "thats what they do" "thats good for one of them" "If you wanted better economy you should of bought a bigger engine". Apart from the mpg (and mirrorlink fiasco) I really enjoy the car to drive, engine is pokey, DSG is nice but can be taken at suprise at junctions if you dont quite stop, quick flick into s as you approach avoids this. Personally, I would go for the diesels
  2. Mine will not fold off the fob if the one touch window has been reset/tripped. Have to reset the one touch on the drivers side and it works perfect then for a few weeks.
  3. I also picked up a 1.2 tsi dsg on wednesday last week. first 500 miles from new and the economy is slowly coming up. Coming from a 210bhp octy vrs I was dreading the worst but I love it! Learnt how to fold the mirrors off the fob today too ha! (hold lock button when locking)
