Thule Roof Bars
for anyone that is interested or ends up in similar situation...the 7104 foot pack is also very similar to the older 757 which it superseded - makes sense really. It does mean that the inner clamp isn't flush with the rail on a >2018 Skoda, only the small flap on the outside part of it that covers the open distance. See below. Thule have confirmed both are perfectly fine and safe of up the stated 100KG limit. Will be re-fitting mine later :-)

sent the above pics to Thule and they confirmed that the fit is fine. Yes, it surprised me also.

thanks Chris - I have heard of the 775 feet. Read that they are the same shape/profile just with a strap. Is that correct - i.e do they look like the above? cheers

the 757 footpack is the recommended pack for the Karoq. Its been superseded by the 7104 but should still fit. I'm reading that inside block can be moved slightly, so will loosen later and take another look

Thule Roof Bars
Hi all, We have a 21 plate Karoq sportline. Looking at the Thule website for roof bars and some results are a bit miss-leading. Two questions: 1. They have recommended both the 127cm aero bars as well some 118cm bars. Measured the width and seems 118 would be OK, but Halfords also suggest only using the 127cm. What have others gone for? 2. The footpack. A friend has got the older 757 pack which was recommended for the Karoq 2018+ I've checked the profile of this clamp and the inside edge doesnt seem to match the profile of the rail. The outside does and fits well. Again, has anyone used this pack? The newer version is the 7104 which I will look into but also costs quite a bit more than the 757 I've been offered. Thanks,

power steering noise - few weeks old
Just had it looked at by the dealer. They confirmed the noise was coming from the drive shaft cv boot. They said it could be due to cold weather and wasn't a defect. They've added some special grease for it. Louder from the right cv boot than the left. The warning for front assist hasn't come up since it did a few weeks ago, so think all is good

some sort of sensory overload ^ yeah this would account for my tests earlier too. Not happy with the noise coming from the steering/wheel though, so will get them to look at that

just took it for a spin around corner, stopped started twice and the alert wasnt there. Perhaps me testing the noise back and forth to the garage door triggered a brief warning, but will keep an eye on it

cheers, could well be dirty or perhaps the fog causing the alert. Will go for a drive now and see if it clears. as for the noise, I may need to call the dealer

thanks - just re-tested and it's coming from the drivers side wheel. doesn't sound like a pump or belt, more of a grinding/clicking and the tyre isnt rubbing on anything. I tested it back and forth on the drive half a dozen times and then I received a warning on the dash saying "front assist unavailable sensor impaired"!

Hi everyone - owned the Karoq 1.5 for just under a month now. My partner uses it mainly and today she noticed noise when parking. Turns out there's a bit of noise when on full lock. Suppose it's a low grinding/motor noise. I've had this before on other cars, which were older. Expected on a brand new car or worth talking to the dealer? thanks.

phone/usb sliding cover
see attached screen grab from my partner. Not best pic, but you get the idea. As for saying it scratches easy etc - I would be more understanding if I had used a tea towel or something more abrasive, but she used a soft cloth designed for cleaning glasses, so this seems a little weird.

phone/usb sliding cover
had hoped it might be a cover - it definitely had a film cover on when the dealer sent us a video of the car and we havent removed anything. Doesnt look like its there though, so maybe got removed during prep

no grit the cloth was clean which is why we're baffled. Oh and the screen is fine, its only the cover that got marks on it after wiping. Very stange
