2018MY Arteon Discussion Thread

Good review if somewhat inaccurate. They comment negatively on features which can be simply turned off like the roof ambient night light and then state its got a 230v power socket in the rear console . Well mine does not have one.

The manual says the tank is 66 litres, and when I filled up this morning I put in 61 litres.

the Superb also has a 66L tank, according to the books, however many many times I've filled close to 70L when I've got approx. 20km left!!

Depends on the temperature of the fuel can vary the amount quite a surprising amount

Use the app Petrol Spy to get the best fuel price like 5km drive and save 20c a litre on 98. Even though its novated and i have the choice of Shell,BP,Caltex hate getting ripped off on fuel.

OMG check it! You do have one!!


Mine had a plastic plate over it - I pulled it off (it was like double sided taped down), and there is a European 230v socket there. And it works!! You need the engine running to get power.

Just grab a European to AU adapter like this.

Nup the 10 light colours can be done via your system check my post on led lights. The change is in fact stainless trims around the clock and aircon vents controls left and right

Why they would hide it and not advertise such features is mind boggling ?
