Dealer did not find a fault but recoded and now working better.

Not been on Briskoda for a while but adding to the thread… Ours is a 23 1.5 tsi manual Karok and the engine occasionally does this. Happens at low speed and normally out of gear (slowing to a stop). Dangerous when that stop is at the give way line on a roundabout and the car is till moving when you put it into gear to pull away but the engine has stopped. It is not stalling - if I stall it the stop-start restarts the engine. When the fault occurs it does not.

Tried the other setting and the longest interval between wipes in slight drizzle is way too short. Dealer visit coming up.

We have a Dec’ 23 SEL which I expected to have rain sensing wipers. There were some spec changes between and delivery but no idea if this was one. The intermittent wipers appear to operate on time and not quantity of rain on the screen. The wipers also give a single wipe on occasions when turned off, most days they don’t do it but some days it is every two or three minutes when it isn’t raining. I guess there is a fault in the system somewhere but you can bet it will behave properly when the dealer has it! Anyone any suggestions?

That is it, must just be a loose one that was left in the seat at the factory. Thanks

We have a 2023 SEL with the removable seats and after a tip run to get rid of old carpet I found this on the floor. I presume it is out of one of the seats but the implication of that is that there is also a fastener loose somewhere. It didn’t come out of the old carpet. Any ideas?

The impact was about 6” in from the side of the car so nothing substantial. The rear mounting is broken but no sign of damage elsewhere and loosening the fixings has allowed me to push it back into place. Headlamp unit is around £200 and paintwork will probably be £2-300 using someone like chips away so will get a price for getting it done. Dropped a screw onto the engine under-tray 😞

Been rather busy with house moves and grandchildren but we got the car mid December after a 2 week delay when Skoda “lost” a transporter with 9 cars on it including ours. I believe the sales team missed their bonus that month because they were 9 cars down! When we arrived at the dealer to collect it the number plates were wrong, wife has a personalised number which is her initials and dob but they had her birthday as “20” rather than”02”. This was Sunday and they eventually managed to get some more made by the sales manager following instruction to operate the plate machine over the phone.

Not sure, the lamp assembly has moved about 1/4”. Started raining yesterday when I was looking so will have a closer look tonight.

Wife came back from Aldi the other day to say she had touched the bumper on a post and scratched the paint. On closer inspection it has pushed the headlamp unit back and broken at least one of the mountings…….. expensive bump. Toying with doing it myself so some questions - how much is a headlamp unit for a ‘23 SEL Karok? - how easy is taking the number off?

Not sure if anyone here is experiencing the same problems we are but somewhere there are another 8 soon to be owners who are. Our car was to be de liveried to the dealer 10 days ago and collection was arranged with the dealer for 3/12. It left Grimsby but for some reason the driver took them back and didn’t deliver them to the dealer. Dealer can’t tell me when the car is coming as they can’t call off a car that has already been called off, carrier is saying the need another order even though they haven’t delivered against the order they have. Customer services referring me to the dealer. Anyone got contact details for someone senior in Skoda UK as this is beyond a farce.

Just given back by second Superb and both had the heated screen - marvelous. Between us we have had five cars with them. Oddly was in Puma hire car the other week and the wires were very visible in the screen, looks like Ford haven't advanced very far since the Fiesta's the wife had.

New to the Karoq but not new to Skoda, ordered at the weekend with the summer saver package. Orange with winter plus pack (which the dealer had at a different price to the configurator) and spare wheel. just waiting for a delivery date

As you say, that mileage is low for an Accord, gave mine back in 2008 after 4 years with 128k miles on it. It was the most comfortable and least reliable carI have had. One recall, left me stranded once ……. Granted the Skodas I have had haven’t reached those mileages but the first Octavia did 110k in four years and needed nothing but routine maintenance, the second I had for 2 Years and did a paltry 30k (needed a secondary water pump) this was replaced by a Superb Saloon which did 67k in three years (needed the two secondary water pumps changing and the headlights reprogramming), second just gone back after 3 years and 30k miles (lockdown) and the more worrying issue is that it was the first that needed discs at that age, the adaptive cruise also had its moments dropping out if the sensor had any snow, or flies on it and one of the gear lever location switches had an intermittent fault which the dealer could not find (when it triggered CC dropped out) note all 2l diesels but the first which was a 1.9l They are a nice place to be but are very complicated (auto handbrake, led lights, adaptive cruise) and unless you need the space as a private buyer I think I would be looking for a late mk3 Octavia. Just to show that I may be wrong we are looking to get a new Karoq as the wife likes to sit high.

|Haven't had the low battery message from any of the other fobs, one has been used occasionally (including the week before last) and one never used - both kept in RFID fobs.
