Interesting that the official figures show the 7 speed making a noticeable difference to the 6 speed in the 2.0. Real world the gap doesn't appear to as big Thanks for the input guys. I'm guessing in the future the s tronic with more cogs will be fitted to the higher torque engines? Bmw now...

Had my new 2.0 tdi s tronic for a couple of weeks now, re all impressed. Wondering if there's much difference in real world mpg between the two diesels. Mines no where near the average official combined on a pure motorway run I'm getting low 50's at 70-75 cars nowhere near run in though it...

So if I want the auto dip feature left on (I.e selector set to left) do I have to switch over to the heat position to get the mirrors to heat up? They don't just come on based on temperature?
