I find a slight lift of the throttle will get the car to change up. I find this more so in a lower gear. I run my car in Eco mode which changes up earlier anyway.

Re: Headlight adjust - Europe
Have you complained to the dealer?
Make enough noise and you might get a free service out of it.

Re: Questions for non Karoq owner (Kessy, rear seats, specs)
I call it the 50p syndrome. All car dealers look at the small things. Sell a million cars and save 50p on each one, work it out. Some time after I bought my SeL (at Christmas 2018) they dropped the interior light/torch in the boot. 50p syndrome again. Sometimes it's more than 50p e.g. the Led headli...

Re: Additional key
My initial thought was Timpsons but the Karoq doesn't show on their website. You could try the AA https://www.theaa.com/breakdown-cover/key-assist?infinity=ict2~net~gaw~cmp~11485893307~ag~115160958434~ar~600504442791~kw~%2Bspare%20%2Bcar%20%2Bkey~mt~b~acr~6262077566&&&infinity=ict2~net~g...

One of the mechanics helpfully sh...

Re: Drive Mode and other questions.
My 2018 petrol, DSG SeL has flappy paddles on the steering wheel. If I need a quick overtake on an ordinary road I just drop two gears using the left paddle and then floor the accelerator. This is quicker than waiting for the kick down to work. To get back to the previous drive mode I then just hold...
