Re: 1.4 TSI or Diesel
So if it's cost neutral, get the petrol. Surely if it's a lease you don't care what the resale value is at the end unless you want to buy it, as you'll give it back after your monthly payments have been made? Other option is to get a 12 month old 2.0 TSI for the same price Where did 58 vs 28 come fr...

Re: 1.4 TSI or Diesel
2.0 TSI For 5k miles a year a diseasel is pointless, using current average fuel prices the diesel will save you a whole £355 a year on fuel. (That assumes 50MPG on diesel and 30MPG on petrol) I assume you're leasing, so no depreciation to consider, but even when you take the tax savings into conside...

Re: Rear seats loose
Will have a go tonight, so the base just lifts up, no bolts or anything?
The side panels seem to be a massive jigsaw of interlocking parts!

Rear seats loose
Evening all, Got a slight problem on my '09 with the rear seats no locking in place securely The N/S one is fine, it latches into place securely and has very little free play The O/S one however has a good few CM of free play and can be moved a further few CM with very little effort, it does however...

Re: Automatic climate control air conditioning
Agreed, I think it's more efficient to just leave it on auto and whatever temperature you want and let it do what it needs to domr gee wrote:Like some of you, I just set a comfortable temp and leave it to it's devices.

Re: Automatic climate control air conditioning
I believe the system VW use, with auto and AC on, will run all the time and simply start the AC compressor when needed, I know the AC compressors have a clutch style system so it will disengage when not needed. Saying that AC compressors have become massively more efficient in the last 15 years, the...

Re: 2.0 TSI - my new fuel record
My running average is 36.4, that's over 7500 miles of generally mixed driving, best was 45.1 which was a long slow run up the A1, worst was 32.2 which was stop/start on the M25 for 2 hours with a P2015 fault!

P2015 and P0303!
Long story short, I ended up with P2015 error a few weeks ago and got the inlet manifold replaced (2.0 TSi, 2009, 67k), then on the drive back got a loss of power, flashing MIL and some smoke! Panic, pull over and stop the engine straight away, get the car recovered back to garage. Turns out P0303 e...
