Water leak in offside front footwell
So, got in the car this afternoon and of course worse (had non-stop heavy rain over night). Water now seeping through the part of the padding on the A-frame and drops of water fell from the sun visor when pulled down, all wet around the padding area of the visor and in places around the sunroof. I’ll be phoning service centre again tomorrow to see if they can see me more urgently.

Water leak in offside front footwell
Thanks all. I’ve taken the mat out of the footwell and hanging over radiator to dry. Carpets seem to be dry so I’ve put a towel down in the footwell for tonight as just started raining heavily again (typical). Hopefully will not be too bad in the morning. thanks to everyone for their help. ill be phoning the service dept again Monday morning to see if they can fit me in any earlier due to what I think is fairly serious and could cause significant flooring damage if left. I’d also like to see if there’s any other recalls to be checked and why I haven’t been notified of the recalls to date. will update you all once I know more. thank you!

Water leak in offside front footwell
Hi just done a search and looks like my car is part of a recall campaign but I have not received anything from Skoda. Also search on their site gives no indication on what the recall campaign is for. I’ll be very annoyed if it is for this sunroof drain and I’ve not been notified. Fingers crossed. thanks for your help

Water leak in offside front footwell
Thank you for your comments so far. Yes have panoramic sunroof fitted. No sign of anything coming down from there but not checked any drains etc. If it is a drain mentioned, any idea of where these can be found and I’ll take a look? Fingers crossed it’s just something really simple like that! Thanks again.

Water leak in offside front footwell
Hi all got in the car this morning to find drivers footwell soaking wet with evidence of water coming in from behind the dash. I’ve had a little look around the exterior and found a possible gap in the windscreen seal at the base. See attached photos. I have booked the car in with Marshall’s but could not get an appointment until 19th October. I wondered whether anyone else has experienced this with a Karoq during Heavy rainfall?

Rear mounted bike rack
Hi I’ve recently purchased a Karoq Edition 1.5 TSI. I have a rear mounted bike rack which I used to regularly fit to my previous hatchback. The Edition has the automatic tailgate and I’m a little concerned that if I try to use the bike rack I have currently (https://www.halfords.com/camping-leisure/bike-racks/rear-mounted-bike-racks/halfords-rear-high-mount-3-bike-bike-rack?istCompanyId=b8708c57-7a02-4cf6-b2c0-dc36b54a327e&istFeedId=367c5610-f937-4c81-8609-f84582324cd6&istItemId=wwprqxrww&istBid=t&_$ja=tsid:94971|cid:868555891|agid:44240686736|tid:aud-297219198369:pla-394595773197|crid:204164410032|nw:g|rnd:2868829009654067369|dvc:m|adp:|mt:|loc:1006668&gclid=Cj0KCQiAmZDxBRDIARIsABnkbYTHeEX2cyshGAdfPDPkHG8Rqz5skYHQlhAhLOjpIAwtqvCMoChTVz4aAgb-EALw_wcB) then it’ll put too much strain on the automatic mechanism. Does anyone have experience of using either this bike rack with the automatic tailgate or a similar model of rack they can advise on please? TIA.
