Karoqing

Just had my windscreen replaced after developing a massive crack. There's two bits that I'm not sure about and hoped someone could compare against their vehicle. a) is the black outside trim on the A pillar the same as the attached photo. Mine both have a channel now on the outside that looks suspiciously like it should have the outside edge of the window sitting in them. b) is the ceiling liner loose. Mine has a sort of frayed edge by the dashcam and can be moved in and out quite a bit. Much appreciated.

Mystery solved. Pull both at the same time and they fold up far enough to remove the spare wheel.

On the outside edges of the third row there are black tabs that you can pull. They don't appear to do anything but surely they have a purpose. Presumably to remove or tilt up the seats? Does anyone know?

In no vehicle ever have I been able to comfortably keep my right heel on the ground and move between the brake and accelerator. Am I deformed?

Spare set for winter tyres is the objective and I'd like them to not look too far from stock (or at least not like I'm attempting to be a boy racer in my Karoq...) - so alloys.

Can I go for a smaller size without screwing up the speedo?

Thank you so much for your answer.

Looking for a bit of advice - I've never purchased wheels before. I have a 1.5 Edition with the 19" wheels. Tyres are 235/40 R19 96W How do I work out which alloys are suitable for my vehicle? Websites appear to ask for the below info: Diameter: 19" Width: ?? PCD: ?? Offset: ?? Central bore: ?? I used to think that I was quite intelligent until attempting to buy these wheels. Thanks in advance.

Mine does this. Heat out of the vents unless you close them.

That's crap. I'd be calling them every day until they at least got started.

This is exactly what a warranty is for. What could the garage do wrong?

Whilst annoying I wouldn't think it's unusual for them to struggle with getting a replacement windscreen for a vehicle only fairly recently launched.

I specifically chose the karoq as the driving position allowed for my stilletos. I mean I'd understand if I was wearing heels but I am in oxfords 5 days a week and trainers for the other 2.

Bit disappointed in my floor mats in my Karoq Edition. They're the standard non-rubber ones. I've completely worn through the mat where my heel rests between the accelerator and brake. As a result, I've also started to wear through the plastic under the mat in this area. I've done 20k miles and the car is 13 months old. Does anyone else think that this is far too early? I replaced the ones in my previous vehicle after 80k miles. Is there any way to purchase just the driver side mat?

Pardon?

Why are you shouting and what caused the glass to break?

Why does wanting to have an easy method of parking mean that they can't park? I'm perfectly capable of driving within a lane, but lane assist is nice to have. I'm capable of reversing a vehicle but a camera is nice to have and makes it easy. Trying to feel superior than other people because their car has these features is lame.

18,000 miles. One service as included. I'm about to change the rear wiper as the factory one is crap and that's about it.

Pa_ko, I don't understand how after all the effort you've put into this, you won't just disable KESSY by touching the door handle. It completely removes the risk that you're so preoccupied with. Putting the key in a pouch, tin, wrapping it in foil or manufacturing a motion sensor of your own design is surely more of an inconvenience?!

How hard is it to just disable KESSY? Lock the car with the key, and within 5 seconds touch the driver or front passenger door handle. The red light will flash to confirm that KESSY is disabled.

Where do you buy it from?

Which I have - and that's great.

It's premixed!

Dipped to -5°C this morning. Couldn't get any screenwash to spray for the duration of a 1 hour drive. I'm sure that my Edition had heated washers. Any idea how to identify if they're working? I have Prestone screenwash in which in theory is down to -10°C.

My Karoq has been making a comparatively loud squeak when driving. Sounds like from the front wheels. Can only hear it when under 30mph - although may just not be able to hear due to wind noise when faster. Not related to engine revs and doesn't go away when braking. Happens when straight or turning. Seems to happen more after 15 mins of driving or so. 10,000 miles. Any ideas? I've booked it in for Wednesday.
