B8 Variant 2.0 TDI

Hello,

My Passat 3BG AVF TDI probably needs to be retired and will be replaced by either a B8 Variant or a Tiguan.

The 2.0 TDI engines with 150 and 190 horsepower are the frontrunners.

Are there any experiences with these engines yet?
Should I order with or without SCR?

It would be important to me if he could also obtain the blue sticker, should it be introduced.

Which engine would you recommend here?

Best regards from the Baltic Sea.

Faxes.

Hello,
Take a look at the B8 Motor-Talk forum.
I've had the 150 HP 6-speed HS with a catalytic converter for 80,500 km. In my opinion, the 150 HP version is also sufficiently fast on the highway. I am very satisfied with the car. A new lease is coming up, and I'm leaning towards the 150 HP model because the price difference to the 190 HP version seems too large, considering the number of full-throttle drives per year. Also, the 150 HP version is now only available with SCR technology. Fuel consumption: less than 6.5 L/100 km, with mixed usage and auxiliary heating in winter.
Of course, 190 horsepower can provide an extra boost at higher speeds, but it comes with a corresponding delay at low RPMs (city driving).
You can still equip the 150 horsepower engine with either a 6-speed manual transmission (6G) or the newer DQ 381 7-speed dual-clutch transmission (7G DSG), while the 190 horsepower engine is exclusively available with the 7G DSG. Skoda still offers the 190 hp engine with a 6-speed manual transmission.
I am unable to translate "haithamina" because it does not appear to be a word or phrase in the German language. It may be a misspelling, a proper noun, or a term from a specialized field. If you can provide more context or clarify the intended meaning, I would be happy to assist you with the translation.
