  1. If only one could turn it off and not have it reset by default.
  2. And I don't blame you
  3. Yes one can turn these assists off but they reset to assists on when restarting the engine.
  4. Recently swapped an SEL for a Sportline. I just wondered how any new owners are getting on with the Lane Assist and the Adaptive Cruise Control. I'm not really used to it yet. Forget to use the indicators or just move across slip roads and the pull on the steering wheel is really disconcerting, almost dangerous. Ditto the cruise control. This speeds up and slows the car down when speed limits change and/or a car slows down ahead - the immediate automatic braking can cause mayhem to vehicles behind who don't expect such a rapid deceleration. I know these can be tuned off on the menu but what a faff. There's a button for switching off start/stop so why isn't there similar for Lane assist and ACC? Does one get used to these functions and if so how long does it take?
  5. Can't understand anybody complaint about Karoq noise?? I had an MB for years and to be honest I was amazed by the (quiet) noise levels. Suggest you test drive one and I'm sure you will agree the noise is pretty minimal
  6. Noise - very quiet. SEL Karoq excellent. sportline almost as good despite stupid 19" wheels.
  7. We test drove a Tiguan but not sure why, but it felt heavy and not instantly as satisfying as the Karoq.
  8. We had a yeti and an MB coupe (super car). Changed to s single car and had to be easy access for wife and friend. The Karoq was our choice for access and boot space.
  9. I had a 1.5tsi dsg karoq SEL for almost 3 years. I found it exceptionally quiet. It was frugal easy to get 48-52 mpg (average over 20k miles was 47mpg accurate as Skoda's always 2.5% optimistic. Swapped the SEL for a 1.5tsi dsg Sportline. As car only has 1500miles on it so a tight engine and currently on a trip to Spain, averaging 47mpg but keeping speed around 60-65 and occasionally up to 70ish mph. Didn't like the fact that both from shock absorbers were leaking at 20000miles only - serious questionregarding quality of some parts. We have had a Fabia estate, 2 Yetis, 2 karoqs.

    Doesnt seem to have that much difference on fuel consumption. However I'm sure if one changes the mode to eco it will move gears up quicker Just a pain that the default each time one starts the car is normal rather than eco etc

    It never seems to be clear what these Skoda cars come with. I had to turn s previous SEL down because the virtual dash wasn't there. The car I have is an Edition but now find it's a 2024 not a 2025. But most of the new stuff is there. Why Skoda don't take a poll of potential or actual buyers I don't know.

    Mines the 1.5tsi.

    I have the fuel consumption (present and since start) showing in the rev counter but no 2 cylinder icon appears. As I said somebody posted that it's on another cockpit display only.

    Ok. Plus on my preferred virtual cockpit (2 traditional dials) the icon doesn't show at all. Someone had said it only shows in one of the other cockpit designs.

    Thanks for this. So ACT is only working when in Eco and cylinder reductions only occur th Eco?
