I'm the owner of a 2013 Octavia Greenline II (1.6 TDi).  I got a letter yesterday saying that my car was affected by the VW "diesel-gate" affair and would need to be modified as and when the fix was established.  Obviously I am concerned about what effect his will have on the performance of the car and its 2nd hand value.  I am particularly annoyed as I bought the Greenline as being the most environmentally-friendly in the range with the best mpg.

 

I have to say that I have been a very happy owner until this point as the car typically achieves 60 (winter) to 70 (summer) mpg on the Skoda on-board computer.  This translates to 57-66 mpg in real terms (calculated by mileage/fuel usage when I fill up) which is close to the 68.9 mpg claimed for the Combined cycle in the Skoda bumpf.

 

Clearly, I am pretty light on the accelerator pedal!

Hello Steve 

 

It's small consolation, but you're obviously far from alone in this debacle.  I'm sure it'll all come out in the wash.

 

Nice MPG figures btw
