Lol....I think the first couple of thousand miles the mpg was pretty low but that's to be expected! I live in the hills and so I tend to average 27 to 28 in comfort mode. Very similar to my previous car, so it isn't a shock to me.
Find it can add to a little hesitation when you want to pull away from a junction etc. I always find myself turning it off when I come to a hill or junction etc.
I guess like all cars it's just a characteristic that you live with.
Yeah I have the dsg box, which I am guessing is part of the sentivie issue. I lease the car, so I'm not going to start tinkering with anything but learn to turn it off now and then!
I have a month old cupra 290 and like all these things you start to get used to things you like and don't like. These may be minor but bug me a little....the first thing is the over active stop start system, which seems to turn the engine off before you come to a complete stand still thus making...
It's about finding something that works best for you and to your budget.....the car will be dirty tomorrow but normal muck I don't mind but wanted to see what was tar and what may have been motorways chips lo

With regards to the wing mirrors, I noticed it did it once before but didn't realise I had to leave it to the L setting but I...
Mine was delivered with 400 on the clock as I purchased from a dealer I'm the other end of the country and gave it a boot from then on. With regards to fuel I am still not convinced '99 offers me anything over '95 but am still fairly new to the car. Maybe psychologically It feels better with...
I have a cupra 290 Black ed....a couple of questions if I may, are the headlamps meant to dip from fall beam automatically?
And the second question is, are the wing mirrors meant to dip when reversing even with the rear camera installed?
Thanks in advance!
I have a new cupra 290 5 door and would like to know how I turn off he interior alarm sensors? The manual refers to a button on the A pillar but unless It's camouflaged, I can't see one!
Can anyone enlighten me?
Thanks in advance
