Spoken to the dealer? The cars under warranty

Got shot of the Karoq in June so no further updates from me I’m afraid 🙂

There’s three Disklock sizes based on wheel diameter. Bought one recently for our Range Rover and it says not to buy too tight else it provides leverage to anyone wanting to snap the steering lock. The small one was supposedly ok for our diameter wheel but after allowing for the recommended wheel cover it was a bit snug. Unfortunately local Halfords only stocked small so had to go online and order medium. Arrived next day; if store had ordered in would have been a few days. Order direct from Disklock and they were offering 10% discount but were out of the size at the time. Found it very secure, very heavy but sometimes fiddly to unlock. I fit it overnight or if we’re parked up for a long time, otherwise for shopping I use a steering wheel bar, much easier

Anyone interested?

We gave up a lovely Freelander (👍 Mayor Khan) and I’d previously fancied the Jaguar F-Pace. Test drove a diesel, very nice, but wanted petrol which it seems are harder to get hold of within our budget. Then noticed the JLR dealer had taken in a Velar, had a look, test drive, all sorted, drove it home Wednesday. It’s a P300 HSE R-Dynamic with pretty much every accessory you can think of. And despite its size and weight, the 2litre motor apparently turns out just shy of 300bhp

Morning OP, we bought a 2020 Sportline in April last year. The OEM Bridgestones were a nightmare, picked up every bump and hole in the road, Significant Other spent all her time pointing out the road ahead, driving was no longer enjoyable for me. That was quickly resolved when we fitted CrossClimate2s, different ride altogether. Apart from that and a software update dealt with under warranty we had no issue with the cars functionality - decent gearbox, turn of speed,looks, panoroof . . . However, over time the high back seats took their toll and I found I was left with backache when I’d been behind the wheel for more than an hour. I’m 6ft1, 18st and regardless of how I adjusted the seat (and there’s not a great deal of flexibility available) I couldn’t seem to alleviate the problem. So we made the decision to sell a fortnight ago.

OP, I’ve got a brand new full set that were in my Karoq that I’ve just sold, Skoda part 57A 867 613 7EY if they’re any use to you. PM me if interested

Saw that but thought I’d offer them up on here first. No interest, then they’ll go there

A bag of cargo netting - 3 piece set, part 57A 867 613 7EY. Hoped I might be able to fit them in the new motor but nope. Offers

Finally off to JLR today, with a huge thanks to everyone for all the advice I’ve been given or have gleaned off this forum in the short time I’ve been a member 👍

Funnily enough it also put the clock back an hour 😄 Thanks once again

Thank you @NottsIan That worked, my name, phone contacts, radio channels all gone in one reset 👍 Had visions of needing to go into numerous different pages to remove stuff so that saved a great deal of anticipated angst

OP I’m just about to move my Karoq on and have a brand new Leadstand scissor jack that I bought from Amazon. Hope this is the link; www.amazon.co.uK/dp/B0874QPPBR?psc=1&ref_=cm Still boxed although I did open it to check it worked. Believe the car I’m picking up Wednesday has one in which case it’ll be available. Cost me £25.90

Thank you, will try that later 👍 If it doesn’t, I’ll be back on 🙂

Thank you @Gaz It’s been a good 14 months of Skoda ownership, a change from the Freelander we came from, but I can’t continue getting out the car with backache every time I been driving an hour. Going back to JLR with a used Velar P300 HSE R-Dynamic which hopefully should be as comfortable as, if not more so, than the Freelander which we had for many happy miles
