Re: rattle sounds and road noises

Very happy with the refinement of my Karoq. No rattles and nicely muted on motorway too. Much better than my Qashqai which is on the drive awaiting disposal.
The more I drive the Karoq the more I like it.

Re: To buy a 1.5 or 2.0 Diesel engine Karoq.

My last four cars have been diesel, Audi TT, BMW 320, Volvo V40 and lastly a leased Qashqai. All very nice and very economical, however with the current political situation re diesel and the subsequent downturn in sales, I dont know how the used car prices will be affected when I come to sell the ka...

Accident data recorder

Just noticed in the manual (page 8) that the Karoq carries an accident data recorder which initiates in the event of an accident resulting in use of the restraint systems. The recorder logs various information including vehicle speed and seatbelt use. Pretty sure the Insurance companies will be all ...

Re: KESSY

Problem sorted....user error.
Seems I was touching more of the handle than just the sensor which is much more sensitive than the keyless lock on my previous car (Qashqai). 😊 Thankyou Kodiak!

Re: Hello from Selby, North Yorkshire.

Picked the motor up yesterday. Very impressed with refinement and that DSG box! Loving the Black Magic pearlescent too. Having just driven a 1.5 diesel Qashqai for three years the Karoq’s fuel consumption is the only downside but I will soon get used to that. Wonderful not to have any rattles after ...

I then close the door and can lock it by touching the touchpad on the door handle. However....If I enter the car as above, th...
