Thanks for the reply. I am sure that because I have proof that the vehicle was sold to me with a problem I have a valid lawful claim to get the leak rectified free of charge.

Forgot to put that bit. Yes, approved used with 12 month used warranty.

Hi. I am very new to this forum so thanks for accepting me. I purchased my first ever Skoda car last year. I purchased a second hand Karoq 1.5 SEL DSG on 10/08/2023, with 26364 miles on the clock. The car was registered on 29/11/2019 so, 44 months old at the time of purchase. The car now has 32102 miles on the clock. I was given a printout of any work carried out on the vehicle such as routine servicing and any warranty work. There is an entry on the system on 18/03/2020 that merely states "Investigation". Then on 23/06/2020 another entry states "Investigated into water leak, Tested and checked inside of boot and tailgate......', and finally, on 02/12/2020 another entry states 'Sealed tailgate boot". The car came with the roadside tyre repair kit which in all the cars that I have owned, I have never trusted these contraptions and so purchased an OE Skoda skinny wheel and fitting kit. When I went to fit this kit the boot floor was extremely wet. I have told the dealer of the situation and short of being fobbed off, I was not very inspired by what they said. They have agreed to have a look at the car next week but have mentioned some horrendous figures to me for diagnostic work. I believe that I have some rights but what does the collective knowledge of this group think? I don't want to name and shame the dealer just yet.

Hi BTandSID. There is a post on here somewhere about a guy that upgrades the led torch to ‘cool white’. In other words, much brighter to match the other interior bulbs if they have been upgraded.

Hi @ApertureS Do you still do the boot torch conversion? If you do, I would like to have mine done.

Thank you. I will give that a try.

How do I get in touch with you to get this mod done? I am no social media or laptop expert.

Hi. I am new to this forum so be gentle. I have purchased a Skoda Karoq 1.5 SEL DSG on a 69 plate and so far , very pleased with it. I have been swapping the interior bulbs to LED ones and would love to swap the boot torch for something brighter. I have seen on here that someone offers a service to swap the original torch for a modified one for a small fee. How do I get in touch with this guy? I am not the best with laptop tech or social media. Thanks in advance.
