Does the Cupra Leon have ACT?

Hey all, I've recently switched from a 71 plate SEAT Leon 1.5 eTSi auto to a brand new 74 plate Cupra Leon V2 auto with - on the surface at least - the same 1.5 eTSi engine.

On my old Leon's dash when the engine shut down half the cylinders for efficiency I would get a small 'ECO' indicator. On the Cupra I see no such indicator so I was wondering whether it doesn't have ACT or if it just doesn't have a way of indicating it?

My 24 plate eTSI CUPRA has ACT and the eco indicator appears when it is working, also when the DSG is coasting with the engine off.

It seems to go into ACT more often than my last 21 plate did, also staying in it longer during gentle acceleration.

My last MK4 1.5 130PS had ACT and the ECO symbol on the dash display when it was active. The 'new' digital dash layout doesn't appear to have the ACT symbol so I too wondered if my new 1.5 150PS had ACT? I found out when changing the left (rev counter) centre display to show 'Instantaneous Fuel Consumption' the display under the MPG figures shows in writing when its running in 2 cyl mode...but no ACT symbol displays.

Cool, never normally use that view so will take a look next time I'm driving.
