Yes you can. My father's phone has a leather flip cover which prevents it from charging wirelessly and he places it there while driving without any problem such as overheating.

Do you know if Karoq has cooling in the wireless charging space like Kodiaq does? I saw that there is (I guess) a hidden cooling fan in the new Kodiaq behind the wireless charging area.

Thanks @MrSecretPotato. English is my second language so forgive me if I couldn't express my problem. I am not happy with my obsession and I am trying to get rid of it by not seeing the consumption data at all so I can just enjoy the ride.

Hi, Is there a setting to turn off the travel summary information (i.e. average speed, consumption, distanve travelled, etc.) displayed when the ignition is switched off? I vaguely remember seeing such an option but couldn't find it anywhere. I became obsessed about consumption data and now trying to avoid any information other than range.

Thank you @Carlston @DSL@JEFF-the-Bowman I guess I'll downsize to 16" wheels and buy 215/65 r16 Michelin CrossClimate 2 tyres. I rarely speed above 110 km/h so if it will not affect handling and cornering considerably, why not go with the highest profile that I can fit for more comfort. Our local shop told me that they have 6.5Jx16 ET45 5/112 57.1 alloy rims available, not the recommended ET43 offset. Would ET45 offset cause any problems other than the look of the tyre being tucked in by 2 mm?

Hi@toot, I guess I've read most of them, but it seems that the discussions concentrate on using smaller inch wheels for winter tyres, how smaller tyres are cheaper than 19 or 18 inches, then revolve around approved sizes for different models, but mostly skip the few questions in between about improving comfort and reducing the harshness, vibration and drumming noise caused by the stiff suspension setup and maybe lack of care for vibrodamping. However subjective it may be, I'd like to simply hear if someone downsized its Karoq's 19 or 18 inch wheels to 17 or 16 inches, used higher 55-60 or even 65 profile tyres, and satisfactorily achieved improved comfort without worsening handling and causing more body roll. I don't have high expectations, I will be happy if such a replacement can provide our family with an ok ride where we won't feel every tiny imperfection on the road. Hi @agedbriar, thanks for the list. So I should downsize to 16" wheels if I want to use 60 profile tyres. How about 215/65 r16? Not approved but online calculators show that it will fit and it is within the 3% range. Would it cause more flexing and mess up cornering?

I have a 2023 Karoq 1.5 tsi fwd with 18" wheels and 215/50 r18 Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5 tyres. I am considering downsizing my wheels to 17" and use 215/60 r17 Michelin CrossClimate 2 tyres for more comfort and less harshness, vibration and road noise. I am afraid of increasing body roll and worsening handling. I'd appreciate if you can share your experience with a similar attempt.

@Michaeldavis39So, did the new shocks make a difference? Also, is anyone experiencing the same issue in Karoq?

@tootI am in Turkey. It is a 1.4 tsi fwd with 7 speed dry clutch dsg gearbox.

Is there anything that can be done to deaden it? Would it make any difference to change the tires in your opinion?

Hi all. I have a 2023 Karoq Prestige 1.4 tsi 150 hp fwd. It is one month old at 700 km. I am generally pleased with it except when I drive it on roads made with interlocking concrete tiles (which, to my luck, compose two-thirds of the town I live in), it slowly starts to make a kind of vibration noise at 15 km/h, which increases to a loud roaring cabin resonance at 22 km/h, then goes away after 30 km/h. It has stock 18" summer tires on (Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5). I tried different pressures (36, 34, 33 psi) but didn't make a difference. We tried my friends' cars on the same road and within the same speed range: *2017 Vw Polo 1.2 with Continental Premium Contact 2 made the exact same noise. *2016 Vw Golf 1.4 tsi with Continental Premium Contact 6 made no noise. *A 30 year old Renault 9 made no noise. On other roads it is just the usual tire noise and stiff suspension thuds, which, I guess, to be expected in a C-SUV with torsion beam suspension at the rear. Do you have any ideas what may be causing this noise and what can I do to narrow it down?
