Really missing steering wheel controls for "next" and "previous" tracks on music. Find it a pain to find it on the 10 inch screen. The volume control should be on the right side of steering wheel as its easier to turn the knob with left hand.


I discovered the solution to this. Rotate the MFD screen to media using right hand steering will rotating knob button, press the button again and tracks appear, select by rotating knob and pressing. then press back button on steering wheel to return to full rotational MFD service.

When listening to radio can change stations in same way.

1500 miles on mine, I have had constantly seen 33 mpg on a average for a 150 mile runs. I did see avg 37.8 over a 70 mile trip. Ok not exact science but very worst case I'm touching between the 30-33 mark. Yes like any car that's quoted with great mpg figures, using the right foot aggressively will sure eat away at the above figures.

Thats excellent news on the mpg front .. Similar to my S3 when driven carefully .. I was expecting sub 25 from the S..

Sounds very good, although if you are relying on the figures in the display you may well find they are rather optimistic compared to actual calculated results!

It's not an exact science but I would guess the system will/should give you a good indication on MPG regardless of whether it's more or less of what your expecting. Unfortunately we can only go with what we see on the display so give and take a few miles either way I don't think it's far off and of course we need to remember it is only an average based on that journey with the current driving style. I thought I was giving potential buyers some good news.

You can calculate an accurate figure from the number of miles travelled between two brimful refuellings. Using this method I typically get an actual 28-29 mpg (in a 2.0 litre Macan). I find however this is generally something like 10% worse than what had been indicated in the display. :(

Not done any long main road /motorway runs yet and only upto 200 miles so heavier consumption. On startup seems to be giving around 20 mpg which rises to about 25 mpg after 40 to 50 miles on country roads in a hilly area. After about 10 miles on a dual carriageway at 70 mph on the journey home from OPC mpg was rising up to 27 ish so it does look when fully warm on a long main road trip 30 plus should be possible. Looking forward to first long run next weekend.
