2.0TDi Elegance will be torsion beam. Only 4x4 models and vRS 2.0 TDi's were independent.

Skoda do need to replace their ICE units with BEV models to comply with group CO2 reduction but with Elroq deliveries not expected to start until Q1 or 2 2025 and the Karoq still being the 4th best seller globally and 2nd best seller in some markets I think Skoda are keeping their options fairly open. There's no information yet on order books being closed and with waiting lists around 8 to 9 months I can see production running on for some time yet.

Since it all went online I've not been offered a choice of registration no's But as I always put my own plate on later I don't care. Poor show about the delay though. I'd be sat at the dealers until I got answers. But they are only down the road and I know most of the staff.

Plenty of fish in the sea, why limit yourself to two cars? You need to make sure you are ok with the Sportlines seats and ride on 40 series tyres. It's subjective and no one can answer that for you.

That kills that theory then. I read on a Facebook group that someone had their Koroq delayed. When they asked the dealer the dealer stated there was a software issue on 1.5DSG's.

@yosser65 Is yours a 1.5 DSG?

No need for any more personally but they sell for around £10 on ebay.

For 2024 changes to every Karoq spec was made so they have the correct technology for the forthcoming legislation. But even if they are awaiting a software update I can't see why that affects cars registered before 7th July so we may be barking up the wrong tree reqarding delays.

There's the mandatory speed system that needs to be implemented on all new cars from July. But it's not July yet.

I suppose it will have to be something around the MY24 build spec changes? Lane Assists/Speed recognition etc?

If revs are not increasing no matter how hard you press the peddle it suggests and engine issue rather than gearbox. Any lights on the dash? Do you have a code reader? Is it in Limp mode?

For 2021 on Karoq you need a A335H not a A331H

With 34k miles and faults being thrown up from both clutch packs I'd side with a mechatronic issue. But nothing's every 100% until investigated.

Rainworth had some more come up towards the end of March 24. All registered in September 23. Some with delivery miles and some with a few thousands. They've obviously needed to have them registered for 6 months before sale is allowed. I bought one and two of my workmates both had one. Including this one. Choice of SEL and Sportline. Interest on the PCP is higher than new but for April they were doing a £750 Skoda contribution and 2 services package. So worth doing even if you pay it up within 30 days.

You missed the point and don't know him. His plan when buying the EV was never to move the channel away from Food and Travel. That's happened by chance, the channel is probably 50/50 now. Certainly now the videos are popular he'll play to that, he'll play the analytics. Lee Davey is not the Macmaster. The Macmaster is his channel personality.

The negative EV videos being a great Youtube subject aside Lee will openly admit a Petrol/Hybrid/Diesel would have suited his lifestyle and mileage much better. It's been a lucky consequence that all his troubles have resulted in a massive increase in subscribers and some of his most watched videos are EV videos. Prior to the EV he was 99% Travel and Food channel.

Lee (The Macmaster) used to live a couple of hundred metres from my house. So I know him and he does a lot of food reviews directly around where I live. Obviously it's an entertainment channel and he's not like that in real life. But yes he bought the wrong car for his usage, he specced up a basic model which is financial suicide and he bought an EV when they where top money. The Youtube videos have more than made up for the financial loss though. I've recently bought a nearly new Karoq but the dealer was definitely pushing the Enyaq and I could have had a delivery mileage 204PS 80 Loft Enyaq for similar money to the Karoq. That's a massive discount on new.

Yep My Yeti was just over 7 when I sold it. It was the oldest car I'd owned for decades. It was pristine to look at. The last photos I took a week before it went. But underneath it showed the signs of 7 UK winters and salted roads. For the last couple of years I'd considered what to do for the best, sell it while it still had significant value or keep it until the wheels fell off. What really got me was my change in mileage and diesel not being the ideal choice.

He didn't like the CVT experience under load and found the electronic monitoring too intrusive. But his biggest gripe was knee room and the centre console, he's 6'6" and said the centre console was digging into his leg.

Power cutting out is not an issue if you go DSG.

A good friend and workmate of mine was set on the new Lexus LBX. He'd sorted out his finances, worked out the lead times and spec he wanted. Then he test drove one and ruled it out after 10 minutes. He's since bought a nearly new Karoq 1.5TSi DSG Sportline, 6 months old with 45 miles on the clock. Picked it up last week.

It seems that vehicles with earlier infotainment generation like the Karoq have been stable with wireless Android Auto since the 0330 update.

My Yeti was 7 years old and the value was still strong. I knew that at 8 years main dealers would just move it on as it could no longer be "Approved Used" so decided to trade it. My Yeti actually sold in 4 days at £18295.

Recently sold my 4th and final Yeti and bought a new Karoq. I had people come and chat about the Yeti and the odd wave and yes I was a member of the Yeti Owners Club. Karoq is a good car with far more tech but I know no one will want to ask about another generic SUV

Mine leaked at 3 years old and 18k miles. (2017 L&K) Dealer attempted a repair but that failed. Dealer then replaced the Cassette. It's been fine since ( 4 years)
