Thanks for correcting me, I'm not sure what I was thinking! Well I do, I was thinking of the 1.8tsi 177 engine with the weak dq200!As an 190 FR owner
The FR has normal shocks the FR Sport has DCC (and some other extra bits of kit - leather / headlight wash / 18" alloys etc)
FR and FR Sport for the 2.0 190 both have GPF. Mine has not caused any problem but does make it quiet.
I have had the water pump issue (done under warranty) and new updated part installed and not been an issue since so something to check agreed
The 190's have the DQ-381 (stronger box) well mine did when I scanned it and they also have independent rear suspension like the Cupra's
Apart from water pump and a new mic for the carphone / voice interface and a suspension squeak that turned out to be the headlight leveller on the rear suspension arm (nearside) mine been great. No complaints
The 190 FR sport sounds awesome, and I'm sure you could bolt on an is38 and some other bits and get 350bhp+ easily just like you can with the 1.8tsi gen3?
