My Edition
I reckon the tyres on yours are a bit stickier than mine...
Nice colour though.
Speaking of which, is anyone else finding that the Karoq scrabbles for grip on even fairly gentle launches, especially if the road is damp.
Have fun,
Ian.

My is fitted with Bridgestone Turanzas. They feel OK when driving but even on a gentle launch they scrabble a bit. Add a bit of damp and a heavier right foot (I almost never use sport mode) and it is anyone's guess when the car will actually move. Those fronts are going to have to go but the question is what to replace them with. I put Michelin Cross Climates on the Yeti and they were outstanding, good grip under all conditions, good ride and low noise levels; sadly the Cross Climates are not available in the right size for the Karoq.
Have fun,
Ian

Interesting. I rate the P7's so far based on a couple of thousand miles of mixed driving including 900 mile round trip to Scotland

Uh oh - not liking the undertone of poor grip.
I have a Q3 Quattro and drive with a stupidly heavy right foot during take off - think I may be in for a surprise

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 were expensive, but are quieter, offer better grip and a good ride. Worth the money from my perspective.Stevieboi1982 wrote: ↑Mon Sep 13, 2021 1:25 am 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.
