chills

As far as I can see it only happens on deceleration with the stop/start activated so it is a mix of driving style, certain situations and as one person noted battery condition, causing it. At least that is my experience. It isn't "incorrect gear selection" but the software because it normally stops when the clutch is depressed, the revs are falling.

The Tunnel cover cost me about £15 but then I stick grandkids in the back. Stops them arguing which one is in the front. The rear AC outlets are worth it. They are a push fit, but one has come out twice in a year, so I just used a spot of glue to hold it this time.

I liked them because they fit precisely and don't move. Also, there is a 1cm+ solid lip round the edges so you are less likely to get any moisture or crap sliding off them an on to the carpets. As I mentioned previously for the back there is also a rubber tunnel cover which is well worth putting in if you put children or old people in the back.

My SE L was the "special" Red 6 months old and 3,400 on the clock and immaculate. Had a dash cam fitted (hard-wired to ignition with no visible wiring) 4 hooks in back rather than 2, the mat in the boot, vario-flex seats, rear tablet holders, the door kick plates etc. heated seats. We weren't offered it first, but we were picky about the 2nd had cars they did show us. So it was almost a last resort, it may have been intended for one of the staff if not sold to us. IT saved us 30% on list and had a service etc before we got it. Also looking at the digital manual, a couple of updates had been done to it. As far as I was concerned, it is a new car that a main dealer had done the shake down, running in and servicing. To the OP I would say go and look at the Škoda website for 2nd hand cars https://www.skoda.co.uk/used-cars/karoq I assume you are looking at used, as the Bolero hasn't been on new Karoq AFAIK for several years. You have a better chance of finding what you are looking for.

Demonstrators tend to be 6 months old and more rather than less in spec. Mine was an SE L with a few nice bits thrown in.

hiec is not supported natively on Win10 or Win11. There is an add-on that for MS Photos that supports some heic variants, but you have to pay for it. I have a couple of apps that do support heic. However, most forums don't support that format. Your best bet is JPG and PNG

Never mind this forum, heic files are not widely supported anywhere (not natively on Win11). Even where they are "supported" the support for differing versions is patchy. Several camera makers interpreted the specifications differently and added their own extensions. It is going to be a while before the mess is sorted out and things properly standardized. There won't be much support in forums and other places until this happens. By that time there is likely to be a new standard people work to. So the rule of thumb is don't post heic files.

Good video. However after a year of driving I prefer the version I have, which surprised me, it's less cluttered.

Not on mine it is a single dial but some are twin dial. See https://youtu.be/v2X_zQsqnX0?si=EejwawFmO0hBydre

Mine is a 2023/4 SE L and has the Amundsen and a virtual cockpit. The display is all configurable so it can be circular dials but i prefer a digital speed. (revs are along the top). BTW I prefer the Amundsen to the Columbus as I have two physical knobs for volume and the menu scrolling which I prefer.

Good point!!

They should be fitted as standard to all the range! Re rubber vs carpet (for car mats obviously) due to the Climate Change hoax the weather has been unpredictable, and we never did end up putting the carpets back in over the "summer". So we have had the rubber mats in for the past 14 months since we got the car. I would recommend the Škoda Original mats. They are heavy duty and have a mm perfect fit. Also, a solid 1cm+ lip round the edge so noting washes off the mat to the carpets. Which is the reason I fitted the grills to the air vents. The lip on the mat in the back goes right up to the vent. What was the result of the poll on carpets vs rubber mats? ,

I said it is a myth usually pushed by climate change deniers. I didn't say you were one. (are you?) EV sales are not going as well as many hoped because there is a lot of pushback by some people. OTOH, the EV sales are quite substantial. Though regions vary a bit. No one is going back to petrol/diesel ICE, at least not according to the groups I talk to. The change from 100% EV's to 90% EVs at the original deadline point in Europe is to give some flexibility, and as I said because some scenarios don't work well with EV's These will aim to eventually use hydrogen. The majority of the world will be EV's. However, this is not good for the environment when you look at what goes into a battery and battery recycling. So, we are swapping one problem for another. The solution in many parts of the world is better public transport. 85% of the UK population is urban, if you can get them to use public transport most of the time that does far more to solve the problem. When living in cities I often didn't have, or need, a car.

This is a myth put around by people who think climate change is a hoax. Initially, there was a 100% cut off on selling new ICE vehicles. EV's have improved greatly, but there are a few scenarios, Emergency Services etc farmers who need a re-fuel time measured in seconds and/or where there are no way of putting in EV chargers. Therefore, the 100% has been relaxed to 90% However, in a decade, this will change when Hydrogen power becomes commercially viable in the same way EVs are now. It will then be only EV's and Hydrogen power, the petrol and diesel power will go. This will only be for new vehicles so that vintage cars will still run, but most vintage cars are not used daily or over lots of miles. Most current ICE cars will be gone in 20–25 years. As there are Hydrogen buses running now (in Coventry) and JCB has hydrogen powered earth moving trucks I think that most of the HGV fleet will go to Hydrogen power over the next 15–20 years What some manufacturers are doing is hoping to go from petrol/diesel to hydrogen for some models.
