  1. That would absolutely get on my mammaries
  2. Not sure I fully understand exactly what it is about ACC that you don't like so not sure if this will help https://obdeleven.com/customizations/skoda/karoq/2021/acc-distance-settings-menu It does say "additional menu" so maybe adjusting the distance to the car in front might overcome the issue for you. That's the only ACC related One Click APP fwiw My MY22 Karoq doesn't have ACC so can't comment on how it works.
  3. Gotcha It was just that there is a multi-VAG make dealership there that fitted the mixed customer service description 😁
  4. Based on your username it wouldn't be a Slough based dealership by any chance would it?
  5. I was able to make my MY22 'Lock on Exit' with a One Click App on my OBD Eleven. However, I immediately disabled it again as the mirrors did not fold in when it auto-locked. That was a deal breaker for me. After disabling it again the mirrors auto-folded when I locked the car with the fob or by touching the handle. Pity as I would have liked the feature. But living in London where there is a strong chance of them getting clattered I couldn't take the risk.
  6. I can definitely recommend a Backfriend

    I think that's just with the All-In Plan.
  8. That is very plausible 👍 While the Varioflex is great an even bigger deal breaker for me would be the inclusion (or additional cost) for the Winter Pack Plus (especially the heated windscreen) FWIW, I'm not currently looking but will definitely consider another Karoq when the time comes to change the one I have. It has both features and would 'mourn' the loss of them
  9. Hi folks Just been browsing the latest Karoq brochure and see that Varioflex seating is not mentioned. I knew it had stopped being a standard fitment on some models but it does not look like it is available as an option on any model. I find it a great thing on my existing MY 22 car Anyone got the lowdown on why Skoda have ditched it as a feature?

    Done a couple of jobs for me (Seat Arona and Skoda Karoq) and can highly recommend them. https://www.mobileincar.com/
  11. I concede I may have got my facts wrong but I think the Sportline might be subject to the higher rates of VED due to the original purchase value. i.e. the book price, not necessarily what a buyer would have actually paid for it. I like the spec compared to my SEL but not enough to have a significant additional cost just to be able to drive it on a public road. Happy to be corrected if I've misunderstood the VED rules. Only flagging this up in case it might be a deal breaker for anyone considering one.
  12. I think they just grab whatever is in the parts bin
  13. Same here tbh. Just an email database mailshot so not too surprising.
  14. Interesting re PCP My Karoq was bought on PCP but my wife's wasn't. She got an email. I didn't
  15. May be of interest https://obdeleven.com/customizations/skoda/karoq/2021/teardrop-wiping I enabled it on our Karoqs with a One Click App and it is quite handy. TBH, the symptoms you describe do sound like a possible fault as it is random but you never know if it is a similar setting.
  16. Although the thread is about heated screens I'd like to chip in about the Varioflex seats as they have been mentioned in the quoted post. Hope the OP doesn't mind. Both our cars came with them as standard for MY22 and MY23 SELs. It is a brilliant feature imo. Mine are permanently removed as I use the car for transporting tools for work. Makes it like a van but doesn't attract the attention of the ne'erdowells in the same way. If anyone is unsure about them here's short video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lvxfbP_pxgQ&feature=youtu.be
  17. Just over £1k Cost as much as it is a faff doing it after it has left the production line. Screen needed to be sourced from Skoda, fitted by a separate screen specialist and then coded to be controlled by the infotainment screen by a further 3rd party firm. We decided we really wanted them despite the cost. One of the cars we got rid of when we bought the Karoqs had it and the other didn't. We considered it a must have in any new (to us) car and couldn't find used Karoqs with the Winter Plus Pack (incl the screen) already fitted. They both had heated front seats and steering wheels fitted when built. VED for our cars is £190 and when it could have been/be several £100s more
  18. My wife and I had retro-fitted heated screens fitted to both our Karoqs Expensive but wouldn't be without them. Has been a <insert Deity of choice> send for both of us recently. I think the point above about VED is a good one and the reduced car price will reduce the VED offsetting the cost of the screen if you went down that route
  19. Without a Trade Card Halfords aren't the cheapest but provide a potentially convenient way of comparing the various connector formats with the ones on your car. Pop 'em off your car. Work your way along the rack checking the different models Definitely recommend Bosch as a good blade. Made a huge difference to my own MY22 and my wife's MY 23 cars.
  20. I bought an OBDEleven and have done a few tweaks with One Click Apps. e.g. Tear drop wipe.
  21. Hi Don't know the answer to your question but maybe worth a look through these to see if anything available on the rear view camera. https://obdeleven.com/customizations/skoda/karoq/2021
  22. 215/50R18 They are asking £230 per tyre for 225/40R19s CC3 Sport but have a 15% discount atm https://www.blackcircles.com/tyres/225-40-19 That's £782 or as near as dammit so not much less than you've found elsewhere. But £18 is £18
  23. £758 all in from Black Circles
  24. I had CC3s fitted to my MY22 Karoq on Wednesday. Didn't realise there was an All Weather Tyre forum let alone a thread or I would have posted in here. You can read what I think about them so far in the thread I started the Karoq forum but got moved to this one. Can't comment on longevity after only 2 days but basically I rate them.
  25. Did a proper run in the car today and even more impressed with the tyres. Absolutely persisting down and rock solid. Je suis un tres joli lapin. Rabbit was as close as I could get to bunny 😄
