Very. tom

That's a thought. The contacts are there when hard wired, haven't checked otherwise. tom

It certainly works with my hedge. I am sure the sensitivity cam be adjusted somewhere. tom

Try it in a safe place with a large cardboard box. When it does brake it's instant. tom

When I bought my SEL the dealer got me to sit in the car, connect my iPhone 5 via USB and set it up. I rarely (say never) use the phone in the car. However the central display did always show a little battery graphic with the state of charge at the top of the screen. This was so whether or not the phone was hardwired to the car. I have recently got an iPhone 8 (another of my son's cast offs). I set up the phone and transferred over the SIM card and it works OK. However I no longer get the battery graphic on the car's central screen, even when connected via USB to the car. Bluetooth is set up on the phone. What am I missing? tom

Forget traction. In winter conditions a front wheel drive car on winter/all season tyres will out brake a 4wd car on "summer" tyres. I prefer "stopping" in those conditions rather than "going". tom

Give the car a decent run with the aircon on. Keep it on all the time. I never turn ours off. In two years I have only done 10,000 miles, currently doing lots of 2 mile journeys. tom

I have a DSG SEL and the only time I have got anywhere near your mpg was when I was doing trips along the A14 at Cambridge when the roadworks were restricted to 40mph. I rarely do dual carriageway trips what with lockdown however I do live in a rural area. tom

I like the look of these but am concerned how effective they will be. I can't see how they would protect against another Karoq driver's door as the bottom part of the door would contact first. Go to the Ebay site and compare the Karoq door picture with the Tiguan door picture. The Karoq door position is inset. tom

Official Skoda Yeti bars fit onto studs on the roof rails. The Karoq rails do not have the holes to fit these studs. Do a search re roof bars. Some Lidl/Aldi ones will fit. The Yeti rubber mats, rears and front passenger, fit perfectly. The drivers side just requires one hole punched. I took my 'ash tray' with me, used for parking machine change. The carrier bag hooks in the boot look the same. I forgot to swop any over to get a couple of extras. tom

Wow, they are ugly! I liked the stick on ones on my Yeti, wonder if they are the right size for the Karoq? tom

Have a S EL. Has anyone fitted any extra sound deadening, what did you fit and where? What supplier did you use? I would just like to make the car feel a bit more refined. Tom

Anyone know of Karoq side steps that are compatible with front and rear mudflaps? tom
