Manual Škoda with kickback pedal
Always worth reading the manual as it answers most things https://www.manualslib.com/manual/978932/Skoda-Superb.html?page=156 That's for the Superb, can't find the relevant one on line but it's the same in my Kamiq printed manual

Can Running Lights Be Swtiched Off?
Ah ok, just need to be on the brakes a little earlier. The car will creep forward unless you control it with the brake pedal

Something is wrong with your technique or the car if it's launching you up a slope!

Questionable oil reading on a new 2021 Kamiq 1.0 TSI
I always do, saves expecting someone else to do it for you

Driving in Spain in my Skoda Kamiq 1.00 TSI SE L EXEC = LED lights
Many cars these days have flat beams ... so they don't aim either left or right.

Reversing camera
Well I've been reversing vehicles for over 40 years and not hit anything yet. Only time I found a camera useful was reversing ambulances, when you had no rear view mirror.

No need to look over your shoulder to reverse, I just do as you do and use my door mirrors.

12v socket and dashcam power feed issue
I had no issues finding an earth point when I fitted our dashcam. Can't recall where it was but it wasn't too hard to find. The link above should help.

Karoq 1.5 SE L cabin noise
Ours is very quiet over most road surfaces, quieter than most other cars we've owned.

Yes I understand how it works as I've had it on hire cars and if you enjoy using it that's great. If I ever get a car with it just like stop/start and lane assist I'll turn it off.
