Just a quick Hi!

 

I am delighted to have just bought a mint 2.0TSI Estate from ‘The Zee’. 

 

He has kept it beautifully and was a pleasure to deal with.

 

Lovely drive from Tunbridge Wells to Derby. Are there any of the other 112 2.0TSI owners on here?

Hello James welcome to the Skoda forum good to have you with us .

Hi James, happy motoring in your Superb!

Thanks! Had a lovely drive out in it today. What a great car. The engine is superb. The DSG is quite a pleasant surprise (Auto was not on my shopping list!)

Hi, take a peek at my signature.......

 

Which generation / model year is  your Super B?

 

Happy motoring, DC

Looks like we have more or less the same car, same year. Mine is an Estate. Has a few nice additions such as the pano roof. It’s my first Škoda and I am amazed at how good a car they have made. I love the look of the 4 tailpipes.

 

Any tips? I’ve not really explored the settings on the car computer yet?

 

Prior to finding one a mechanic friend was offering to ‘chip’ whatever one I got to 246bhp...not sure it’ll need it but past experience of doing this to diesels has been fantastic. Do you know anyone who has done this to a 2.0tsi?

We've had ours since Feb. 2013 & it was remapped (by AMD Racing) to 252ps about 2 months later. at 6K miles.

It;s just reached 26K miles this weekend & we are pleased with the extra performance & economy.

 

If you can find a Briskoda near your home who has a VCDS cable & laptop, you can have a few changes made to your car's computer, it's possible to enable a digital speedometer, & enable various other useful feature that are hidden in the car's software.

 

The build quality is better than we expected, & the enhanced performance nice to have, it's something of a sleeper. 

 

FWIW we've driven quite a few newer cars recently  & we can't find a affordable replacement for the Superb.

 

HTH, DC.

 

Sounds good. It appears that the speed comes up on the dash digitally in km/h anyway, which I guess I can change to mph (maybe The Zee has already plugged it in?!). 

 

I will do a few things, including the remap when I sell the Seat Alhambra I have bought this to replace...

 

Really pleased I waited for a 2 litre in the end.

Hi James,

 

It was good to meet you, your son and your father.  I hope you will be as happy with her as I have been for the past 5 years. She has always been a pleasure to drive and own and I have many fond memeries to look back on. As for the digital kph, I understand that it is a requirement in the UK to be able to display both. There was a post on here some time ago where the "funky tech" guys can do something by plugging in a bit of kit to change it, but I never bothered.

 

By the way she was treated to a polish with Meguiars Ultimate Polish followed by Meguiars Ultimate Paste Wax about a month ago. So if you are too busy driving at the moment at least the body is well protected.

 

All the best, The Zee

Thanks. Yes your polishing has done a great job. She looks fantastic, with all the Derbyshire rain beading into nice small droplets...
