Scirocco Central

I keep a bottle of the JML viper stuff in my boot with the rags just for bird poo as I can't leave it on the paint and have to remove it asap I also recommend the waterless wax from "Carkit" as I use that on my bike where waterless wash/wax is ideal I would always use the good old fashione...

thanks for the response,

yeah I know about the OBD2 tool but dont have one to hand to reset.

The light actually went out itself after some more driving so I guess the MAF sent the ECU the correct signal and it turned it off.

I will remember the batt disconnect trick tho for future

Probably just torque steer it's very common in sporty FWD cars

Hello, Anyone know if it is possible to reset the check engine light on dash? Fitted induction kit to the car and obviously didn't tighten up one of the MAF section silicon pipe jubilee clamps enough as I was driving fine for about 3 days then light came on, opened bonnet and saw the bloody thing ju...

I had to get my inlet manafold replaced last week and fuel consumption has got from mid 20's to mid 30's for city driving instantly. Really interested in this also as I am averaging 17-20 mpg around town so I'll have to look into inlet manifold! I have it booked in with VW on the 19th and its under...

Induction kit arrived

New exhaust arrived

De-badged rear

Looks like I will have a busy weekend tinkering

Just waiting on my H&R springs and Revo stage 1 now

Just ordered a new exhaust and H&R springs

Just got H&Rs for mine I will tell you what they are like when fitted etc and take pics

Wiz, Have you reset the onboard computer logs to clear out historical MPG readings - setting 2 on the Multi Function Display is cumulative "since the last reset" and could store up a lot of old, low-MPG trips. Setting 1 is the "current trip" which clears back to zero if the engi...

Worth a shot - I'll try in the morning and let you know!

Yeah that's what I would expect from my car I ran a 4.5ltr v8 before with the same mpg I get at the moment???

Hello, What are fellow 2.0TSI DSG owners getting mpg wise? I drive mainly urban but the car is saying 15-17 over 160 miles I've done in her now and when the tank was full only said range was 200 odd miles?? Seems way low to me as I'm not driving that spirited Car isn't mapped or modded .... Yet :p

Mine is on 17!!!

It's over 160 miles and mainly urban but that sounds way low I'm not on a track!

Anyone else got a 2.0ltr Tsi typical mpg?

I have one fitted it's an amazing bit of kit

Thanks for the heads up - indeed it does sound like a good bit of kit and its on my wish list now

Yes please post as this is driving me bonkers until I get the remap sorted!!

Glad there are already experiencing this as I've come from NA 4.5ltr V8 to a 2.0ltr turbo petrol .. Had worked it out to just be turbo lag (didn't know it was fly by wire throttle) so I was thinking would a new map help and it seems so. I was already thinking about the Revo stage 1 so what maps did ...

Hello,

Googled it and it was exactly what a few people have mentioned relating to reminding you the car has a deadlock lol

Sorry I just assumed it was a fault as it says check owners manual with exclamation marks!!!

Bit dramatic VW

Took the missus for a spin and had some fun twisty B roads, lunch and even gave her a shot lol

Hi guys, Just picked up my new roc and when I turn off the engine I notice it says in the MFD "check deadlock, owners manual" I assume this isn't normal? Car is under warranty so just want it fixed and to go into dealer with some knowledge on the issue Anyone here experienced it? Car also ...
