Just curious if any Karoq/Kodiaq owners out there has had any problems with the rear fog light not working? I haven't had the need to use the rear fog light for ages but when I did try it a couple of days ago it was very dim (they have 3 LED's) and flickering. After a few seconds a fault light comes on the matrix, together with the message "Please check right rear fog light" (even though it only has the one). The fault light and message does not latch, and disappears after switching off the engine and doing a restart.

I've bought a replacement fog light from Skoda and intend to replace it asap as there is a very good video on YT regarding taking off the rear bumper. The only dodgy bit is doing it in the very cold weather as, after removing the two light clusters and lifting the plastic clips which retain the top of the bumper. Probably a job for a hot air gun to warm thing up a bit.

Thanks.

No problem here. I'm assuming it's a generic message and refers to left-hand drive cars.

 

Can totally agree with hands - I tried to removed the door handle the other day and gave up - and that's a dead easy 2min job !  Apart from hands being cold, all the plastic parts are freezing / brittle so good chance of something snapping. I chickened out - leaving it alone for a few days.
