Wheres my chassis control

[Firstcarscirocco]

Hi

Just got an 09/10 1.4 tsiscirocco. I cant find the chassis control (sport comfort). It is missing. Ionly have the ESP button. Why is this ?. Also can i somehow fit it in ?


Thanks

I don't think it was standard on that model/year.

It should be in front of the gear stick and have comfort/a suspension icon/sport written on it.

As said above, it was a cost option on that model.

Damn.... That sucks. Is there a way to add it now?

Also can you tell if its 122 ps or 160 ps by this

Thanks guys

if it's like my TDI it should be on the drivers door shut. there should be a sticker with the model, power and fuel

Have a look under the bonnet, if there is a supercharger and a turbocharger then it's the 160. If it's only got a turbocharger it's the 122.

DCC is not an easy or cheap retro-fit. Money would be better spent on better suspension from the likes of KW and Bilstein.

Has it got a TSI badge on the back? If so then if the SI are in red it's a 160. (All red for my 2012 onwards).

Can't believe you've bought a car not knowing :-)

Surely you had to say what one it was for the insurance?

[Firstcarscirocco]

Still in the garage, have to insure it on myself next monday, to say the truth I taught its the 160 but now im thinkink its the 122, as the service history invoices state its a 122, found a sticker near the spare wheel stating 90kw. Whats the biggest diffrence between the two models apart from the bhp ? And can I some how increase the bhp ?. Also for shocks any reccomendations?

[Cuprabob]

Yes, 90 kw is 122PS (120bhp)

why do you want chassis control?

I had the 122 2010 model as above it was a cost option.

The suspension is already very much in a 'comfort' mode on that car.

If you want sport mode thats undriveable on all but the smoothest surfaces. That just leaves you with 'normal' which on an R is still harsh on normal roads so i'm always in comfort.

So yeh not sure why you want it anyway

[Firstcarscirocco]

wow, then not of a huge fuss. no need for a stiff ride, might lower the car a bit, only problem the roads in my country aren't the best

[Cuprabob]

Human nature, you always want what you haven't got.

At first I thought DCC was a gimmick but in reality it's quite useful.
