My sales person entered my name  on new Karoq I wanted to change this to more useable first name  I read there was a problem in changing .What I did was 

register my details with Scoda Connect using computer  Click on User profile and Edit profile to my more common name   This was changed on the computer but not when I checked in the car

I then on the car I selected change user.  Entered email and password and selected edit name  Changed my Primary name to Herbie and it was changed in the ar

 

On Skoda Connect I was surprised to learn that details of the car were shown on the computer complete with last driving data and location of car 

 

I am very pleased with the car with the 1.5 petrol 150 engine.  My last was VW Golf  (same engine but manual) tested mpg over 1200 miles and recorded 53.9

The Scoda is automatic which means a higher 7th gear I am expecting high MPG close to the Golf   

 

 

I think you will be disappointed with the mpg, my average is 37.7 that's over 7556 miles

Scoda/What car  say for the 1.5 engine 44.2 mpg  and Honest John says 44.7

I got 53.9 mpg out of the 1.5 engine in my Golf  

What I was proposing to do as I just have the car a few weeks ago and I am still finding my way around the 

manual  is when this is complete I will reset the overall mpg to zero and test the car mpg for1000 miles and then post the results

I will be disappointed if I cannot beat the mpg stated by Honest John at 44.7

 

Thanks for replying Pragmatix

 The best I've had is 44.8 on a long run over 225 miles

You are giving me a target to best  I only travel about 3000 miles per year and trips are only around country roads and to essential shops so I don't expect good mpg Nice car I like the safety features except when I drive in the centre of country roads  It beeps at me and tells me to drive in the centre of your lane   Impossible on narrow country roads when you have to avoid tractors and sheep coming out of hidden lanes All part of living in the country I'll find out how to switch it off  It can be dangerous when you take your eyes off the road to read the instructions  Thanks P
