2,100 km & 3 months with my Taigun 1.5L DSG: My honest experience

Average fuel economy using tankful is about 12.8 kmpl. This is from 100% city driving, mostly sedate.

Took delivery of my Taigun GT+ 1.5 DSG in silver yesterday. Have driven about 400 kms till now and it's lovely!

Was pleasantly surprised during the delivery to see:

• Updated and improved headliner! It was one of the sore points for me. Now it's 10 times better IMO.
• Now only the red exterior in GT model comes with red interior inserts. Earlier, both red and silver had red inserts which i did not like.
• ORVM folding is back again!

During the test drive, i found the horn to be lame. I don't know why would they fit Taigun with a horn that sounds like you're choking a duck. So i got it swapped with the Tiguan's unit and boy oh boy, it's the best 1.5k addon i've spent on any car

Just a quick update on my 1.5 DSG.

It's about 3 months old and has clocked 2100 kms.

Car has been pretty lovely generally. Don't want to go through this since the pros have been covered many times here.

The couple of issues i am facing are:

1. Driver side window which has auto up/down feature will stop going up mid way and roll back down. It's very annoying sometimes. The fix for this is to do a soft reset by holding the window switch down for 10 seconds and up for 10 seconds. This fixes it for sometime, but the issue crops back. I have read somewhere that the service guys will replace the window winder(?) don't have the time right now for this but will get it checked and update here.
2. The rear left door's hinge is creeking when we open or close it. This seems like a simple fix. Just a little lubrication and done.
3. Rear right side door rubber beading has come loose from one socket. It's not causing any issues when the operation but just noticed this. Will get it fixed during the next visit.
