    ACC & City Braking - How Its Done -

    A while back I read about a German main dealer that had ordered a van with the 99mph ACC when the customer had ordered the higher speed version . When the main dealer contacted the factory about upgrading the acc they were told it wasn't possible and a new vehicle would have to ordered. Theirs...

    Fuel tank capacity

    Not necessarily - the 80l tank is still available as a factory option to any country that allows it to be selected. Its just that VW UK reduced the options list as they said it was too confusing to customers !!!. I suspect the order went in when the option was allowed and in the meantime the...

    Limited Mfd Configuration

    Your not missing much ! - The temp gauge doesn't actually show you the correct temp anyway VW have built in a massive 'flat spot' so the gauge is pretty much useless anyway. Their is a graph floating around here somewhere.

    Kombis are taxed as Commercial vans at a standard £250 . It just gets slightly complicated with regards to HMRC and personal use of a Kombi as they judge it to be a car.

    Fuel tank capacity

    Thats because the configurator is German based, just translated for uk - If you look at the UK pricelist it's missing along with a few others.

    Fuel tank capacity

    The 80 L is still available from the factory - so pretty much everywhere else can order it - it's just that the 'UK importer' has decided that its customers are too stupid to choose through a long option list and decided to shrink it .....hence the options list shrinking !!! I'm glad I've...

    ACC / Front Assist / City Braking . . . . . . Is it working?

    It dosn't work if your already braking - as it assumes you've already spotted the obstruction. When it does work - you get a big arrow flash up on the MFD , a loud beep and it hits the brakes full on for a second or two- it certainly wakes you up if your not expecting it !
