I hope Amazon Duracell are OK. BTW, we have a Mercedes 62 reg C180 with 20,000 miles showing and the key fobs have never been changed. Could Skoda fobs last that long?

Good plan.

Can y0u prescribe me a brave pill please?

Many thanks. I still can't get the thing to open. Ho hum. I have tried pressing down hard as per illustration but the thing won't open. I dare no press and harder in case I damage something.

I looked at pages 23 and 24 and they don't work for me.

They charge for changing the battery???? Of all the robbing *****

I too tried to follow the manual instructions to access the battery (page 24) and it didn't work. Where did you see the instructions with the flat bladed screwdriver to open the cover?

Thanks to all for taking the trouble to help. Why oh why can't we go back to a simple key to access and start?

Thanks for this. After searching, I see a small rectangular hole underneath the handle. Is that where I insert the probe from the fob? When you say remove the smaller cover, do you mean the cover at the left hand end of the handle? How does it come off? Do we get a warning if the battery is low? Thanks again for helping.

Anyone know how long a fob battery lasts before needing replacement? How do I change it? I saw a video on line which seemed awfully fiddly involving a long thin screwdriver and much twisting. Why are these things so complicated? Do we get a warning of impending flat fob battery? I read we can use the emergency key to gain access if locked out. It said to put the emergency key next to the start/stop button and the car will open. How do we do that if we are locked out?. I bought a 2023 Karoq and wonder if I made a mistake, what with the constant updates etc.

Engine 1.5 Model is SE L TSI PS DSG

I have noticed sometimes when I press the throttle I get a pause then a jerk which made me wonder if the box is OK. Car only covered 11000 miles now. I have not seen D7 in the display; D6 at most yet the spec says the car has 7 speed box. Is that because we haven't driven it fast enough yet? :-)

Thanks to all for helpful replies. Much appreciated. I trust we are doing no harm driving around an empty carpark letting my wife practice the creep behaviour. Sometimes the creep is a little too fast. Still learning; only had the car a few days.

The car is a 2023 Karoq with the 1.5 engine so I assume the gearbox is the DQ200 dry clutch. I am a DSG newby so don't know any more tech details. Mileage is 11000.

Oh dear, does that cause damage or is it engineered to withstand it?
