Re: Remove centre console 2020 Skoda Karoq

Re: My Edition

I have the same but manual, it's definitely has a slip on higher revs pulling off, can understand now why the salesman was recommending the 4WD, but still, best car ever, cannot fault the 1.5 Evo engine. I have Michelin CrossClimate SUVs on all 4 corners now and the improvement is dramatic. They we...

Re: automatic gearbox

I suspect that the reset may be a software error rather than intentional. The main infotainment screen and the light in the mode selector button both indicate Eco mode persisting after a restart. However, the MFD between the dials and the behaviour of the gearbox make it obvious that the car has rev...

Re: Power supply

The product that Ian suggested appears to be a Dometic CoolPower M50U Battery Monitor for Universal 12v Applications. I've ordered one so will give it a go. Yes, that's the gizmo (or possibly a different branded alternative). The only thing that might be an issue is that the resting voltage of my K...

The button pictured disables the start/stop function until the ignition is turned off. Next time you switch on it defaults to start/stop functionality again.

Re: Power supply

I have seen people recommend a product that plugs in between the socket and the fridge (or whatever) that monitors battery voltage and switches the fridge off if the battery voltage drops to a critical level. Trouble is, I can't remember what it was called. Try asking at Briskoda or on the YetiOwner...

Re: Cabin Soundproofing

Two suggestions for road noise:

1. Choose smaller wheels. Big fashionable tyres generate more noise
2. Turn the radio up.

Re: Dash Cam fitted to rear roofline - blocks radio

I use a Thinkware F770 front and rear system. Works perfectly with no radio interference.

Re: New Karoq on Order - Multiple Phone Use

My 2018 karoq will connect to 2 phones by Bluetooth at the same time. Obviously, however, only one can be actively making a call at a time.

Re: Some surprising tyre news.

I have CrossClimate SUV tyres on all four wheels and have to say that they are a massive improvement on the garbage Bridgestones that came with the car. However, I have long been a fan of Falken tyres and will consider them next time around as the best price I could get on Michelins was around £180 ...
