Roc 2.0Tdi SPORT 140bhp vs 170bhp

Post by Ganzoline »

Hi Guys,
I´ve just got my Roc 2.0Tdi SPORT (140bhp) early this month... I´m very very pleased with the car overall, it handles perfectly, it strears and brake very well... but I´ve been wondering if I´ve made a mistake taking the 140bhp instead of the 170bhp... Sure the 170 as more to give in a general way of speaking... And I´ve been noticing that my engine is still "opening" as I put some miles on it...

My question is what really are the differences between the 140 vs. 170...? Engine speaking... If I was to consider to make a ODB Tuning... what´s your opinion... cause some friend told me that the implication was not just the "software", I should also beware with the injection system, breaks, etc etc etc...

Thanks!
Best Regards! 8)

Hiya Gaz,

I test drove both prior to ordering the 140.

Things that tipped it for me where basically extra cost...got panam roof instead and cruise control etc... but i also thing am gonna save on tax (bit scroogey like...but ive just got a house sooo...)

There was a difference but to be fair i felt in nominal and if i was concerned about the difference in performance i wouldnt of gone for the oil burner in the first instance.

Hope that helps
