Or do you have to remap the gearbox?
That's one of my biggest gripes with the car. I'm in 3rd for a reason, and it's not because I want to lug along
-
Isn't there somewhere in the menus to get rid of eco tips altogether? Can't be 100% sure as I know longer have a MK7 but sure there was and I unpicked tgat box. You certainly can in the wife's Polo GTI and my A4.

I think my Leon isn't showing these.... it's got a VC though.
Anyway, can't you just choose to ignore the eco tip :D

You can change the eco tips, but I think the gear suggestion is the only one you can't turn off. Maybe I'll give it another look

Manual car but this has started getting on my nerves too, and I swear I found an option to turn it off previously.
Can I find it now? Nope.
-
Just checked, even my VC shows it.
Don't usually see it when I'm gunning around in manual mode, as I'll either be full on or idle most of that time. :whistle: And with my eyes on the road and the rev counter.

I suspect its an eu requirement... To reduce emissions.
-
Yes definitely a legal requirement from the eu and thus a UK law too
https://www.legislation.gov.uk/eur/2012/65/2012-01-24
So not going to be easy to disable and probably a mot fail if its not there

What a load of bollocks. It's a legal requirement that cars tell people how to drive, in the name of the environment, even though it's entirely up to the driver whether they follow it..... Am I breaking the law by not changing when it tells me to? Whatever next
