Just wondered if your Tdi FR push you into the back of your seat?
Mine did when I picked it up but the power really does seem to have dropped, don't think it's just me getting used to it.
Driving to France on Tuesday so going to fill it up on Ultimate and give it a damn good run, hopefully getting it out of London traffic will do it some good.
 
youve just got used to it mate i was exactly the same!time to get it mapped by the sounds of it or try driving something else. my work car is a mg zr 1.4 with a million miles on it so its like all my christmas's have come at once when i get to drive my leon at the weekend!!!!!
 
Not driving something else for a good few years yet, only had it a month.
The long drive should do it some good
 
Mine used to when I first got it but I am used to the power of it and now I want more :lol:

However, I recently had a week of daily driving in a 1.6 Golf (petrol) and getting back into the Leon after a week.. I had that kick me back in my seat feeling again :D
 
same as others..... yeah feels slow now ...

swap to something smaller for the day, jump back in it and .... wow! :D
 
Agree with all of the above. You get used to it, that simple.
In the missus 1.3 ka for work today and can't wait to pick the FR back up, it'll have the side skirts and I know I'll have the shove into the seat again ;)
I can feel a remap looming though. . . .
 
more than the 53 plate saab 93 2.0t petrol i had before - better in every way....

Hadn't seen the above before. My dealer have always said they do remaps to the petrols but they had teething problems with the diesel due to the DPF. They think they have overcome that problem now but want to remap one of there cars first to see how they get on. If all is well they will gladly do mine for me, so the dealers can do it.

What dealer do you use?
