Hello Me and a freind have just got the Skoda Octavia Classic A4 1.9 TDI
Brand New.
Both identical models, the only difference is mine has the Multifunction switch on the indicator stalk which shows all the info on fuel consuption, average speed, distance counter ect. and my freinds has not, his only shows the cloock.
Anyone got any idea why one has it and the other does not when they are the same model???
Any info will be appreciated.
Thanks Kevin

It looks like your mate got the last of one model, and you got the first of the other.

Thing is that's not always a good thing. :sad:

Your mate's motor has been tried and tested by many, whilst yours is being tested by you. :shock:

that will meen that you have to fuel readings, the first one will go up and down like a yo yo and the second one will be steady just leave it on the second one they are next to each other like on the superb
Whats you mpg??? any way the superb was between 42 and 68 mpg had the 130 bhp tdi
