DSG now 2wd petrol or 4x4 diesel only

[SurreyJohn]

Looks like the range rationalisation to just SE drive and SE-L drive has also restricted the engine and gearbox choices.

 

If you want DSG, it's a choice of 1.2 petrol 2 wheel drive or a diesel with 4x4

cannot have 2wd diesel DSG

cannot have 4wd if you want petrol

 

The configurator now only has these 2 models, the SEdrive has a choice of 6 engines / gearbox, the SE-L drive only gets a choice of 5.  Appears the update to the configurator was done as a rush job as description remains as additional equipment over (now non existent model)

 

With the recent announcement for Geneva show that other models, Fabia, Rapid etc are changing from 1.2 tsi to 1.0 tsi, appears yeti will be only user of 1.2 tsi, so this engine may be going soon as well.

They are Discontinuing the 1.2 TSI 

I know this relates to the Fabia but the engine will be the same

 a 1.0 TSI engine with three cylinders and four valves is replacing the 1.2-litre engine with four cylinders that has been used to date.

The new engine offers more power. The power output of the ŠKODA FABIA 1.0 TSI is 70 kW (95 PS), while the output of the more powerful version is at 81 kW (110 PS) but offers an improved torque of 200 Nm (previously 175 Nm). Downsizing offers another advantage: the engines’ fuel consumption has been reduced by up to six per cent. One reason for this is the three-cylinder’s engine concept with a reduced weight of the free inertial forces and a more efficient oil pump. The revised ŠKODA FABIA and ŠKODA FABIA COMBI will be introduced to the public for the first time at the Geneva International Motor Show (7-19 March 2017). 

Injection pressure reduces consumption by up to 6 percent
Downsizing, lightweight construction, more turbo power – the ŠKODA FABIA and ŠKODA FABIA COMBI feature the Czech car manufacturer’s latest developments under their bonnets. Thanks to an increase in injection pressure to 250 bar, both power variants of the new 1.0-litre engine offer better driving performance than the 1.2-litre engines that have been used up to now and they also achieve a reduction in fuel consumption of up to 6 per cent. 

The third generation of the ŠKODA FABIA impresses with a dynamic and emotive design, a large amount of interior space, innovative safety, comfort and infotainment systems‚ and numerous ‘Simply Clever’ features. The car offers a range of in-car equipment that exceeds the current offering in the small car segment by far. 

Three-cylinder engine with very smooth running and sporty sound
Besides its smooth running, the ŠKODA FABIA’s new 1.0-l TSI three-cylinder engine also impresses with its sporty and dynamic sound. With its compact construction and due to its lightweight aluminium crankcase, the engine weighs ten kilograms less than the 1.2-litre engine that has been used to date. The aluminium pistons and the connecting rods are so well balanced that the engine runs in a particularly smooth and refined manner with very little friction. A balancing shaft is therefore unnecessary. This saves on weight and helps to reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. 

The oil pump, which has a freely controllable flow rate, also helps with this. It continuously adjusts the pressure required to suit the engine load. The boost pressure, which reaches up to 1.6 bar (relatively), increases highly spontaneously due to the turbocharger’s intercooler being integrated into the induction tract. The engine comes across as very responsive and dynamic because the frequency of the exhaust pulses generally builds quicker than with the four-cylinder, for example. This occurs even at low rpm, providing a clear advantage in city traffic. 

The 1.0 TSI with 70 kW (95 PS): stronger, faster, more tractability and quicker acceleration
The power output of the ŠKODA FABIA 1.0 TSI with manual five-speed transmission is 70 kW (95 PS). Torque remains unchanged at 160 Nm, yet the driving performance has been improved. Compared to the 1.2 litre engine with four cylinder used to date, the top speed has increased by 3 km/h to 185 km/h (ŠKODA FABIA COMBI: from 185 to 187 km/h) and the acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h has improved by 0.3 seconds to 10.6 seconds (ŠKODA FABIA COMBI: from 11.0 to 10.8 seconds). The engine’s tractability from 60 to 100 km/h and from 80 to 120 km/h is identical to its predecessor. The fuel consumption and emissions of the hatchback and Combi,on the other hand, have dropped considerably from 4.6 l per 100 km (105 g CO2/km) to 4.3 l per 100 km (99 g CO2/km). 

The 1.0 TSI with 81 kW (110 PS): power output unchanged, considerably more torque
Just like its 1.2-litre predecessor, the more powerful 1.0-litre engine with manual six-speed transmission delivers 81 kW (110 PS); however, its torque has increased from 175 to 200 Nm. Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h is achieved in 9.5 seconds (ŠKODA FABIA COMBI 9.6 seconds); the top speed is 196 km/h (ŠKODA FABIA COMBI 199 km/h). The increase in torque is most noticeable when accelerating on country roads or motorways. The improved tractability of the engine is most evident when it is combined with the optional 7-speed DSG transmission. In the highest gear, the short burst from 60 to 100 km/h can now be accomplished up to 2.6 seconds faster (ŠKODA FABIA hatchback 2.4 seconds), while acceleration from 80 to 120 km/h is as much as 4.1 seconds faster (ŠKODA FABIA hatchback 3.9 seconds). In the manual versions of the hatchback and Combi, the fuel consumption and emissions of the three-cylinder with 81 KW / 110 PS have dropped by 0.3 l to 4.4 l per 100 km (101 g CO2/km). For the DSG-transmission versions, the fuel consumption has reduced in both variants by 0.1 l to 4.5 l per 100 km (104 g CO2/km).

I own a 1.2 TSi 105 8V and a 1.2 TSi 110 16V.

 

I also had a 1.0 TSi for a day.

 

What I can say is the 1.2 TSi 16v is easily the most smooth refined and pulls away from low rpm more easily. You need more revs on the 1.0.

 

VW have said the new real world economy tests will push the 1.0 into lighter models and from Golf model upwards the 1.5TSi in lower powered forms will probably make more sense.

 

So 1.2 may continue in the current Yeti until it ceases production and Yeti 2 may just get the 1.5 in differing outputs.

I don't think in the UK the DSG box has ever been offered with a 4X4 petrol version.

 

I would have liked my L&K to have been a DSG but not an option.

Wasn't there a 1.8tsi early on with dsg? Don't shoot me down if I am wrong, just seem to remember this option?

The YETI FL is a run out model in it's last months, so maybe the Yeti replacement will have a choice of 1.0tsi & 1.5tsi, but maybe forget the 1.4TDI since currently a Service Campaign is underway with them to change the coolant because seemingly VW have ****-ed up again.
