I’m sure the karoq hasn’t got Apple wireless car play yet. Also I believe current MY21 cars are usb c .

No the +ve charger lead should be connected to the battery +ve and the -ve lead connected to the earth tag on the bulkhead adjacent to the battery -ve terminal.

If your having to open the door from the outside, either your interior handle is faulty, but you would expect this not just to happen occasionally, or somehow you are activating the deadlock, which deactivates the interior door handles. Are you saying every time you stop the car you are pushing the lock/ unlock buttons?

Towing capacity of SE 5 seater shown here... Just bear in mind it is far easier and cheaper to spec a tow-bar, or at least tow bar prep, as a build option than fit one aftermarket, especially on the latest models.

Sounds like low / faulty battery.

Can only presume that the LED headlights in your Karoq have an output below 2000 lumens. Uk spec Karoq that have LED headlights have washers, as does my Kodiaq.

Have you seen this..

Is your rear washer operating correctly, or has hose popped off filling your boot.

I’m sure the rear wiper doesn’t work if the boot is open, perhaps your boot wasn’t fully closed, or thought it wasn’t closed. I know the fronts certainly don’t operate if the bonnet is open or of the latch.

A simple answer would suffice my curiosity Your curt answer makes me think it is what I thought..

As you’ve found, having heated washer nozzles doesn’t negate the need for having washer fluid suitable for the current freezing conditions.

As yours says 95 Ron minimum you are very likely to benefit from improved performance and better fuel consumption using higher octane petrol as in para 2 above. Anyone with 95 recommended Ron sticker are very unlikely to experience any benefits and there is not much point paying the extra 5p a litre. My 2.0 Tsi Kodiaq likes Tesco momentum 99.

The owners manual covers many options and counties that may not be relevant. As above, what does the fuel flap filler sticker say.

What does the sticker on the back of the fuel filler flap say 95 Ron/ 95 ron min or 98 ron ?

Do you have a mode button beside the gear selector, if so press it and see if a snow mode comes up in the options.

17” steel wheels are hard to come by. 16” wheels with 215x60 tyres is a recommended size for winter wheels for a Karoq.

Find another dealer that’s willing to put a bit of effort in. The correct part no for 16” steel wheels is 5Q0601027CJ03C You can also get steel wheels with winter tyres from the likes of mytyres. Com Please don’t be tempted to just fit winter tyres to only the front wheels.

The “ idiot light” system has worked well in my previous Yeti and current Kodiaq and informed me of a screw in the tyre causing a slow leak on both occasions.

What new Kodiaq?, it’s not even had it’s face lift yet, but expected this year.

Can’t see it from here

Also found this on google... So it looks like 225/50/17 94W

A quick google brings up this, can’t guarantee the info is correct though. Whats the spec on the tyres currently fitted? https://www.wheel-size.com/size/skoda/octavia-scout/2014/

Apart from pretending to be a police car, is there any practical reason for doing this?

Sorry, just got Mikes details from the marketplace on here, I haven’t used him but others have got him to successfully source parts. I believe he has a website. Have you tried TPS or a dealer? Found these black Statos wheels from a dealer from Google, would imagine that silver one would be available too. https://www.theskodashop.co.uk/products/skoda-alloy-wheel-stratos-17
