Re: DSG box / sat nav

Hi turbo32 I have the same engine and g/box and have to say for me the DSG is simply stunning, definitely cuts the mustard!

Re: Running in period

Hi, I've always "run in" every new car I've had. Depending on how much I like the car depended on how long the run in period was. Most were around the 5000 mile mark, but the Roc is ( to me ) a stunning beast and as such the run in period was 7000 miles.I never hit 3000 rpm till 2000 miles...

Re: fuel mpg average indicator

Nothing wrong with my maths or method of working them out. I put the less than expected mpg's down to the cold time of year and a brand new engine. I have ...
