Skoda Karoq Forums

Hi everyone, had my Karoq Scout since last May and it's been a great car so far.... but I have a few questions/suggestions please.

I've noticed a couple of stone chips, any suggestions of the best place to pick up the two step waterbased paint touch up kits. I haven't tried a dealer yet but online these seem to be really expensive - £18 or so for 2 x 9ml paint/lacquer.

The boot is getting very dirty... see don't have the shelf, just the carpet cover. Does anyone have any suggestions on a decent boot liner please.

Android Auto, is really clunky and unreliable since the recent Android Auto update. I've tried a couple of different Android phones and they connect, disconnect, apps become unresponsive (especially Waze). We've since bought a Skoda Fabia (in December) and Android Auto connection in that seem more reliable. I just wondered if the Karoqs software needs an update or something - any idea's please?

Thanks all

Can't help with paint or Android I'm afraid, but you could try E-bay for the Boot mat. I bought mine there. you have a choice of types at varying prices.

Thanks Kodiaq... I did look on ebay and there seem to be loads... Quality can be hit and miss though so i wondered if there were any specific favourites that most owners go for.

Yeah on my new Karoq syle plus ,same problems there with Android Car ,NOTHING WORKS PROPERLY .....

Aldi are selling a car bootliner next Sunday 16th Feb. Not sure how well it will fit, but it can be cut to size/shape and at £5.99 you can't complain https://www.aldi.co.uk/allweather-bootliner/p/099787318682900

I'm a bit late to the party and you have probably got android sorted , but you could try the Skoda official update page, if there is an update it will list it there, you will need your VIN Number http://updateportal.skoda-auto.com/. Every now and agin I have to do a hard reset of my head unit. You could try that. While the ignition is on just push and hold the power button for 15 to 20 seconds. It will start a full reboot, you don't loose any settings so you have nothing to loose. Cheers

Thanks mate... I'll check it out

Just in case anyone else is looking, With the paint sticks we match your registration (required at checkout) to send you the correct one.

Also, since my earlier post, I've discovered a friendly chap on the other skoda forum that can supply the latest Firmware for your head unit (The one Skoda don't supply as a download).

Its a full head unit update so at your Own Risk (i.e. will void warrenty if it fails) However I have updated mine from ver 475 to 478 and then later to 480 when released and its noticably more stable. Have a read and see if it might help.
Cheers
