I’m hoping this will be the case and it will resolve however other forums have stated after a few months the problem re-appeared.

My car precious to this was a Kuga 2016 2.0TDCi 150 Manual.
I switched to auto because of my 2 hour journeys I had what I called ‘clutch knee’ and I no longer have that problem since being in an auto.
I’m in high hopes for it to be fixed as I love the car! I feel however Kuga’s are bigger which I like. But either way I just want to enjoy driving and if this pinging goes away I’ll be happy! However if it doesn’t I simply can’t live with it. What is the fuel consumption like with the Kuga. My previous Kuga did 49-51 mpg on the same run my Tiguan does 45-47 which I don’t think is too bad for a 4wd and Auto. But haven’t owned a petrol vehicle for 7 years so no idea what the efficiency is, I do 40 miles a day minimum.
I’ve got my fingers crossed VW can fix it, as I was in hopes of purchasing it at the end of the lease.
