I bought my Karoq with 2 years service, MoT & Warranty which is about to run out at the end of March & I've just had an email about Service Plans. Initially I ignored it but looking at the All-in plan it seems it might not be a bad deal as it includes 2x Services, 2x MoTs, 2 years warranty & AA breakdown for £900. I realise an indy might be cheaper but the Warranty is certainly attractive - I've already used it to have a broken fuel filler solenoid replaced. Does anyone think this plan is way overpriced? I can't see that it is although I'd want to see the fine detail of the Warranty.

Thanks, I thought that might be the case.

I've had a search but there doesn't seem any recent discusssion on this so can ayone recommend a decent boot liner for a Karoq? I'm not talking about the rubber mat, I mean the waterproof load area cover for use whne taking stuff down to the tip. There are numerous cheap covers on Amazon but I'm guessing the quality for £20 may be marginal & not a particulalry good fit, but maybe I'm wrong. There are companies like Car Mats, Titan & Rhino who appear to do more customised covers but of course the cost is considerably higher. Ideally I'd like one that covers the rear seats when rolled up & not just folded flat but I haven't found a company that does that.

Thank you very much for your response; I'll have to pass on the 7.5J rims then & keep searching for 6.5J ones. It's a pity as they were decent condition & a fair price.

It's the usual story - I'm running 19" rims & the ride is not good so I've been hunting for some 17" rims, mainly on Facebook Marketplace. The approved/OEM size is 215/55 R17 on 7Jx17 ET45 rims but I have seen a set of Audi 7.5Jx17 ET45 rims for a good price (5x112 PCD so should be ok). I've checked on willtheyfit.com & fairly obviously the inside edge is 1/4" (6.5mm) further inboard but given the 19" rims are 8J I don't think that's an issue. Are there any other problems with using 7.5J rims instead of 7J? Will a 215/55 tyre fit & run ok?

I've found that mounting my phone to the left of the sterring wheel doesn't work for me & I much prefer it mounted to the right but this leave the problem og getting a cable to it. I've read some of the guides on here but what I would like to do is get a USB cable into the center console from behind the dash so I can plug it into the port below the cigarette lighter. I can't feel an opening at the back of the console so has anyone found a route into the phone charger/lighter compartment?

I have just acquired a 2108 Karoq Edition (manual gearbox) with KESSY & I am still in the early learning stage but one thing I am having trouble with it getting the ignition to turn on. I know to start the car you need to depress the clutch but to just turn on the ignition (and off) I believe you should just be able to press the start button while the key is in the car. I'm having difficulty getting this to work & I'm not sure if it's something I'm doing wrong or if it a fault. At one point today I couldn't get the ignition to turn on & then I flipped up the parking brake switch which illuminated & then next press of the start button the ignition did come on. Was this a fluke or is there some combination of settings that inhibits the ignition? I haven't had trouble actually starting the vehicle so far, just in getting the ignition to turn on. I haven't yet tried both keys but I don't seem to have any problems locking & unlocking the car so i don't think the key battery is dead. I see that there a few threads on this subject but I just wanted to check that the ignition should just come on with a single push & I haven't inhibited it somehow.

Thanks for the replies but it's still a bit of a mystery. The floor panels are different shapes (the low one has shaped ends to fit the chassis menber intrusion) & I don't think you can have the variable floor withe the Varioflex seats soI'm still not sure what combination gets you a high floor with Varioflex. Neither of them are 4x4 vehicles. Oh well, it's not a key factor but it would be useful to know.

Firstly apologies for another question but it's a bit of a minefield when trying to dig out information on the web. Looking at a couple of Karoqs there's a difference in floor height but both are supposed to have space saver spare wheels. Can anyone explain why, other than one may have the full size wheel stowage kit? I notice that in the high version the lashing points are hidden.

Thanks. It's not something I would choose but they all have them so I guess I'll just have to keep an eye on the cleaning.

I'm looking at used Editions which all come with a Pano roof. Leaks are a common complaint in the Yeti section so what about in the Karoq? Is it particularly noisy compared to a solid steel roof?

Thanks for the information. It was registered late April 2018 so it's nearly four years old & at the first service at 17,600 it was almost exactly one year old. Then there's a two year & 19,000 mile gap to the next service at 36,500 & then a nine month 6000 mile gap until the last service. I'm trying to get more information about what each service involved but I had been put off by what seemed a high mileage for he first service - it turns out I may be wrong. The tyres are pairs so not a complete mismatch. I only do a low mileage each year so it will soon become a lower mileage that average vehicle. Again, thanks.

I'm interested in a Karoq 1.5 Edition Manual, not DSG which has done about 47k miles but the only service history is one at 17,600 miles then 36500 & then 42800. I'm thinking this isn't good, especially with the first one being at nearly 18k. Is it possible this is a reasonble history, or a car that's probably been neglected?

I'm trying to put together a configuration for a Karoq in the Skoda online web configurator but once I start adding options it say the price is NA. Am I supposed to finish adding options & then submit it? I was expecting to see the price online so I could add & remove options to see the effect on the final price.
