Hello,
This is our first Cupra, but we are long term VW, Audi and Skoda owners. I started with a 1.3L VW Passat Coupe in 1975 and with the exception of a couple of minor periods, where money was tight - new house and baby etc - (We had to buy Mazdas - the horror!), I have been customers of the group all that time. At one stage in my wayward youth I was a workshop foreman in a VW dealership, before I had a major career shift.
We don't have the car yet - it arrives around the end of this month (November 2025) as it has to be shipped up from Adelaide, but the Yakama roof racks have arrived, the boot mat is on order from the UK and the custom fit Sun shade is a few days away. It is a brand new car, but it has been in stock for a long time. Got a pretty good deal and a reasonable trade in price on the Passat Alltrack.
I am a long term Ross-Tech user, but I am looking to use ODBEleven on the Formentor. However, no one is certain that it has the SFD2 protection. I am keen to find someone else with the same April 2024 build Formentor V (with leather pack) that can confirm the status of the SFD2 in this VIN range. I really need a working tool as the nearest Cupra dealer is over 300km away. While I have always had a good experience with VAG products, I am wise enough to remember that things can sometimes go wrong in a new car.
I am looking forward to some good chin wags here.
