Has anyone here with the new facelift Skoda Kushaq (not the pre-facelift/old model) experienced an EPC warning/error?

Also, for those who faced it:

Are you using XP95 petrol regularly?

Did the EPC error occur even when using XP95?

Has anyone identified the actual cause or a permanent fix?

Did the service centre find anything specific?

Just trying to understand if this is still an issue with the new facelift Kushaq or if it has been resolved.

I am planning to buy the Škoda Kushaq facelift 1.0 TSI Torque Converter (Monte Carlo) and wanted some real owner feedback.

How is the engine and gearbox in daily use, especially in heavy traffic?

My usage:

Mostly bumper-to-bumper city traffic

Weekend hill drives

Few doubts:

Will the 1.0 AT feel underpowered with full load (4–5 people + luggage)?

Is it comfortable in hill driving and steep inclines?

How does the torque converter behave in long traffic jams?

I am looking for a stress-free and reliable automatic.

Is the 1.0 TSI AT a good choice for my usage or should I consider the 1.5 DSG instead?

Would really appreciate honest feedback 🙏🏻
