Been on here since 2011 when I got my mk2 tsi sport, returned last year with a mk3 FR 184 dsg st (still in possession).
now I announce I own a
cupra 300 st bought from a fellow forum member, update to come!
So a few weeks in and finding my feet, still not had a proper bit of fun (more frightening tbh)
Noticed the throttle response is really bad. On throttle mainly from standstill, and off the throttle seems like it carries on for half a second, bit more thank what you would expect with electronic throttle pedal. Probably fixable with intake mods which will have to wait until the new year. Unless that's what you get with high power cars?? Plus the inertia of going into hyperspeed maybe!!!
Had a blip at redline in sport mode, sort of a hesitation and delay going from 1st to 2nd with DSG. Like when a diesel hits redline and all torque drops. No warnings etc. Twice this has happened.
It's running oem panel filter and spark plugs fitted last week. Not sure I'm a fan of the REVO dsg map (had this and stage 1 installed previous owner) seems like it never wants to change gear in the very high rpms in sport, good job for the flappy paddles!
Still loving it, will love it more when this damp weather clears up.
