I am a happy owner of a Kia Sorento, and I drive in warm region with the air conditioning always on. Fuel consumption suffers, but it' so much more pleasant. I got it 3 months ago, and it has 6,000 km o the clock and is very satisfying. I had it checked at 1,000 km and at 5,000, with an oil change. The bill was 159 Euros. The engine holds 8.2 litres of oil with a filter. This may seem a lot but it may be a guarantee of safety. Checks are carried out at 1,000, 5,000, 15,000 and then every 15,000 km. The Sorento is even more enjoyable since I fitted a P-Tronic box unit (site PTRONIC.com) distributed in France by Eurofac. I no longer have to strain the engine to drive in difficult conditions. The vehicle moves along on its own and in total silence. Moving up the revs is crisper and still remains progressive. I hardly have to accelerate to go from 0 to 100, and the speed with which this happens is disconcerting. The gears engage energetically and I'm soon in fourth, whereas before I had to stay in second and third for many seconds. And I've read all your messages carefully. Diesel engines don't take to brutal treatment. You have to drive them with tranquil rhythm, and scrupulously follow the maintenance schedule. The box-unit is not a racing accessory. It brings pleasure to the vehicle which becomes so much more agreeable to drive, conferring an impression of tranquil power, while still giving you the opportunity to leave the boy racers behind.

Coming from a 140 hp TDI I was very happy with, I naively thought that this TSI 150 would take my golf7 into another dimension. Big mistake. I guess I don't have to explain to you how flat this little 1.5 is. Well, WAS flat because with your chip, it's really really better. I would be curious to compare with a reprog but the fact that the box intervenes at the intake and camshaft level certainly contributes to the comparable efficiency you can see in the numbers. Can you confirm? In any case, the sensations are there! There is no comparison with the other brand's box I bought before yours, which was much cheaper but which was a real scam !!!

I find that the Golf 7 1.5 TSI 150 hp has the behaviour of a turbo diesel. On the one hand, it's nice to have torque in low revs (even if it's not huge) but I think we've lost the fun side of the gasoline engine and this VW is too linear. With your box, I found the sensations of a gasoline engine : more willing and better at high revs. Felix S, Madrid
