I thought it was 140Nm? I’m sure that’s what I read in the online manual 🤔

Fresh update today; the car is now at the dealers (off-site) compound and I’ll be picking it up next Friday 😁

Proper stealthy, very nice! 😎

This! Without photos it didn’t happen 🫣😆 Also…welcome

Thank you, I’ll get one ordered 👍🏻

Can anyone confirm if this guide pin will fit Karoq wheels please? I know I’ve seen them mentioned on here somewhere before but can’t find the relevant post now despite searching. I haven’t got the car yet so unfortunately I can’t check for myself just now, thanks. Link if anyone is interested: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/334368450159?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=nQbE3RkZRSC&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=8lthBdv8RWy&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Someone has already mentioned above another option I’d also spec (but forgot in my original response) and that is a proper spare wheel instead of the useless gunk generallly supplied. Oh and a heated front windscreen as well if possible…

I had a similar dilemma when buying our Karoq, initially wanted the SEL but then realised by the time I’d added a few extras I was better off buying the SportLine (which I guess is on par with the MC). I love the panoramic roof, which as a standalone option was something like £1200 😳 As for what extras you add is quite a personal thing, I really wanted a pano roof and the LED pack, which were both expensive extras over the SEL spec, hence opting for the SportLine. At least the MC doesn’t come with big daft 19” alloys like the SportLine does 😆

Welcome! Looking forward to following your progress with this, I’ve always had a soft spot for the Yeti 👍

Always a bonus 😆🤣 Welcome!

One from Powis Castle yesterday.

Very nice 😎 Welcome!

@XTad There’s some incidental info on this thread about removing the glovebox…

@DBSurrey I’m waiting on my 1.5 TSI to arrive so I’ll potentially have a vested interest in this.

Just stumbled across this on YouTube, it doesn’t mention ACT so may not be relevant but may be of interest anyway…

Hello and welcome, just waiting on a Karoq (petrol) myself, it’ll be my first Škoda too 👍🏻

Another update from the dealer just now; car is currently at Emden - Status 38 - “port of exit, released” So fingers crossed for the next few weeks, I’ve also now got the VIN and engine number, I did ask for the PR Code list but they say they haven’t got it yet which I find strange.

Welcome! I also ordered a Karoq last year but in mid November, hopefully will be getting it in the next few weeks and can’t wait 😁

Good to ‘meet’ you, sounds like you have a good breadth of experience to draw on there and fair play to you for always offering help if you can 👍

This will be my first Škoda, had a few VW’s 30-odd years ago and a Transporter about 10 years ago so looking forward to picking it up. I originally went looking for, and test drove, an Octavia but my wife fell in love with the Karoq, turned into an expensive day that visit to the dealers… 😂

Thanks for confirming that, if it matches the sound in the Focus I’ll be happy with that, cheers 😊

Oh bu&&er! 😆 I’m not expecting high end sound but our Focus with standard 6 speaker sound system sounds surprisingly good for what it is and I’m hoping it at least compares well to that. Good to hear that you’ve chosen another Karoq, I’m assuming you’ve been pleased with your current one to date 👍

@Jasethekaroq I’m also waiting on delivery of my SportLine, it’s been made and is awaiting shipping so mine will have been somewhere between 14-15 weeks since time of order, so not too bad looking at some of the other model wait times. Glad I managed to order when there was a PCP event was running at 0% looking at current rates though 😳 I’m curious how you found the standard sound system after being used to the Canton set up? There was no option for the Canton when I ordered and believe there still isn’t, did you notice much difference during the test drive?

Good info that, cheers 👍

Up until now that has always been my experience when buying new, if you want want big daft wheels then you have to pay extra for them. Makes no sense to me at all, a bit like the Winter packs but don’t get me started on that…
