yes no transport blocks , i think it might just be the upgrade in the wheels , but god knows what the banging in the rear is , i have tried all the hacks on this site . -

The Karoq Sportline was like driving in an armchair , i had the mk3 Octavia and it wasn't as harsh on the roads as the mk4 . -

Yes they are aware , and i cant believe the wait times to book a service in as well , Skoda used to be very good with service booking times even the courtesy cars are over 4 week wait . -

I sold my Karoq 1.5 Sportline 4x4 auto which was costing a fortune fuel wise around 8 months ago , and purchased a 1yr old 2020 mk4 Octavia Sel Tdi first edition 150bhp auto with upgraded 18 inch wheels and full matrix headlights . What a big mistake The car is so uncomfortable over bumps you can feel every one probably the 18inch wheels not helping and a constant banging coming from the back of the car over uneven UK roads, i have had numerous errors coming and going , most annoying is the front and rear assist error which will not clear until engine has been off for 30mins or so, and now my engine management warning light has come on yesterday and also front assist limited availability, luckily this heap of crap is going in for a service and to get all the errors and the warning light looked at Christ the car has only done 17000 miles from new, i have had Skoda's for the past 10 years unfortunately this might be my last, as the car is going when all the errors are gone the only good thing on this car im afraid is the mpg over 60+ and that is it 😟 Anyone new to this forum DO NOT BUY A MK4 OCTAVIA JUST A HEAP OF CRAP !!!

Mine is a 2020 and a mk4 they released they as early as July 2020 which mine is the first edition model -
I bought it new built to my spec and the wheels haven't been touched 😁

My local dealership contacted me today after numerous calls not returned , i have got to take the car back in so they can measure the thickness of the paint on the wheels WTF what has that got to do with the lacquer blistering and in any case the part that has blistered is the machined face bit , considering the car has only done just over 9000 miles and just over a year old i think i have a valid claim , i think they are just dragging their heels over replacing them if they dont i will take the case up with the website resolver.

Still waiting for reply coming up for 2 weeks this week so I am going to give them a ring skoda uk must be open and replying to emails by now

Still waiting on a reply from Skoda UK dealer has sent off photos , they said as soon as Skoda UK get back they will let me know but he said he didn't even know if Skoda UK were open during this pandemic, i have 3 years left on my warranty so in no hurry

Car is in for service today and i have raised the issue, i would have picked it up today but they rang me need my car for another day as there is a recall on mine something to do with the pan roof and a possible leak problem , should find out tomorrow if they will replace them , but 9000miles and just over a year old i would say mine are defective .

Mine have just started going on 3 wheels on a 2019 karoq sportline with just over 9000 miles covered , it is in for a service this week so have raised the issue and going to try under the warranty hopefully, the back 2 have no curbing damage etc but have just started blistering the front have a bit of curbing but bad blistering nowhere near the curbing though

Yes I'm sure you are right I'm sure you will love it, I swapped a octavia vrs tdi in for mine and I'm loving it at the moment lol

I picked mine up last week and haven't any DSG problems, in fact, it is very responsive for a 1.5 engine, I guess some people are a bit too picky of every little thing in a car

Lovely colour saw one when I picked mine wishing I'd got the meteor grey now
