  1. Looks like they may have cured the gear problem I and others had + you covered enough miles to make sure the battery didn't get to low on charge, but the power cutting out is a bit concerning...
  2. Blimey I had forgotten about that SOS thing, probably because I just use to ignore it, hopefully that's fixed by now, never had an auto, just makes me think Megabucks when they go wrong.....
  3. Had a karoq se l .1.5 manual in 2021, it suffered from difficulty in going from 3 to 4 gear and the kessy key would play up not locking the car + mirrors would not close on locking, the garage told me to do more miles to charge battery as the system will shut down various other systems to compensate for low battery.. Thinking about getting another so Has anybody noticed if these concerns are still present on the latest cars.
  4. I guess the rear sensors/camera must be linked in as well, as that is the only time it happens to me, never had a front emergency brake event, but turning it off has stopped it happening when reversing down my drive...
  5. Had mine turned down to minimum, still used to go off occasionally backing down my drive, so now turned it off, not a fan of all these gizmos on modern cars, driven for 50 years without them.....
  6. Thanks Nottslan .....Did a long trip and locking / unlocking via door handles now working, hope it stays like that.....
  7. I do lots of short trips so this maybe the problem, will go for a longer run later, but the Skoda connect lite app is reporting 14.6v battery voltage
  8. Thanks, changed both key battery's last week as it flashed up in car to change them....
  9. My Karoq has today started to fail to unlock or lock when using the door handle, both sides of the car, using either of my two keys, but the doors will lock or unlock by the buttons on both keys, anybody had this problem and is there an easy fix?
  10. Yesterday I had notification on my phone of a software update for connect lite, it said it will update next time it connects in the car, now nothing works, reinstalled the app, removed and replugged in sender unit, nothing connects now, anybody else had this happen or any ideas...tia
  11. Yeah, years ago was the last time I had one using the lace up method, fitted great, maybe a fruit less task to find one that is anygood by the sound of it.
  12. Has anybody managed to find a steering wheel cover that's a good fit for a Karoq SE L 21 model year, bought one from Amazon that's just gone back, diameter is ok, it's the thickness of the wheel, the cover is to narrow to wrap round it...tia
  13. Can anybody confirm that turning off the interior alarm can be done as the manual says, by pressing the lock button on the key twice, within 2 seconds...tia
  14. Agree...left mine plugged in and no further movement from 21.11..
  15. Do you think 22.7 is in the same update, so best to leave the USB Key plugged in, to see the outcome?
  16. Downloaded the latest update and after 4 days the Navigation database has gone from 21.7 to 21.11, not sure if that is it or whether to just leave the USB key plugged in..
  17. Bryfly posted a topic in Skoda Karoq
    My radio has been coming on randomly without touching anything, I know you can mute it from the steering wheel, but I want to turn it off completely, if you turn it off by pressing the left button it turns off the whole system (Amundson infotainment) any ideas?
  18. It's a pain that Skoda will not put that update online for customers to update it themselves, myself, like others have trouble getting a dealer to update it, as we are faced with the dealer answer "there is no fault recorded in the system" cannot update it, Skoda customer services are no help either..
  19. As there is only one Skoda dealer in Winchester I cannot say I received the same service from them, I recently had my Karoq serviced there and reported MIB 3 issues at booking in and was told on the phone it probably needed a software update, when I got the car back I was told they have not updated the software as they could not reproduce it and it was not logged in the vehicle system, so thumbs down from me...
  20. Bryfly replied to Bryfly's topic in Skoda Karoq
    What about paint and bodywork inspection, I'm used to having a service book where paint and bodywork got stamped every year at its service, I have the paperwork after my Karoqs service that shows the line drawing of the vehicle, only the tyre depth boxes are filled in, all other items relating to bodywork / paint are not filled in, does that mean it is not checked by Skoda at first service?
  21. That was it Chris, had 3 notifications there about not renewing "my Skoda", so it looks like it doubled it to 6, strange behaviour with this infotainment system everywhere..lol
  22. Just notice the No 6 on my screen top right hand side (see pic), yesterday it went to No 4, today it is back to No 6, I know in the past there was a symbol appeared there that was something to do with updates, is this the same.?
  23. Just had my car in all day for its first service and reported two of the faults in the above tpi, quoted the tpi number and asked for them to do a software update, 3 pm email from garage, cannot reproduce and not logged in cars system, told them I had a picture taken this morning of the headlight switching, I was told no good and after a long conversation I just got, bring it in when it happens again, well that could be a never ending trip until it logs on the car system, gave up with the garage, phoned Skoda and that was another waste of a few minutes of my life, hence this is my first and last Skoda....
  24. E mailed the garage re the update, goes from a while I wait 1st service to a we need the car all day, decision decisions...😉
  25. Very informative posts phope, of the symptoms listed I have two, no overair downloads and the headlight message, I will ask my dealer for the update re your advice , but I noticed under workshop findings it says "The customer statement can be reproduced", as the headlight message is intermittent and map download has never happened overair it seems to imply they will not do it unless they can reproduce?, + Do you know how quick it is for them to do it, as I'm in for first service in March, expect them to say not enough time to do both....
