Re: Recall, left front seat and airbag.

Not been here for a while so checked the recalls on my year. Only the centre rear head restraint may affect my car. Two others don't affect my car as it doesn't have a bench seat and is dsg ( parking brake ) another is too little torque, haven't noticed any issue with mine. I've had no recall from s...

Re: Selling kodiaq

I insured my car with lv, no mention of categories in the application and nothing shown on the Dvla just in the v5. I'm sure the insurance companies data base should show vehicles of this nature, so they should know it's cat S and if they don't ask the question how can I tell them online. My car has...

Selling kodiaq

If this isn't allowed please remove. I bought my karoq with 1800 miles and is category S, I've kept in touch with the seller who did a good job putting it right and it's been fine for the past year.

Re: For those fed up with stop/start.......a tip

Colin I was hoping for a way to disable it permanently. I always disable it when I remember to as it sometimes turns the engine off before I've stopped and rolling onto a roundabout I can get caught out.

Re: What annoys you about your Karoq?

I completely agree with TOM. Except his last sentence.* I use Eco all the time on my 4wd 1.5 EVO DSG, On a 40 mile cross country run yesterday I managed 44.7 mpg. Having done only 2800 miles (Therefore engine still tight) I am more than happy with that figure. * I am totally P'd off with having to ...

Re: Drive mode - remembering/storing preferred default mode

What is your chosen drive mode. Mine is normal and it stays in normal unless I pull the shift back into sport.

Re: Thinking about buying a Karoq but...

I bought a space saver spare for mine as soon as I could as it didn't come with one. Tyre pressure loss warning is very handy, last week it came up offside front, so went to the tyre depot that I used to do jobs for and one of the guys noticed straight away a screw in the tyre and repaired it right ...

Re: What annoys you about your Karoq?

Just one thing really, have to remember to deactivate start stop when I set off otherwise it stops at the first opportunity and the most inconvenient time, usually while still moving.
