Starting difficulties and high fuel consumption with the Skoda Karoq Diesel 2019 - procedure and experiences

Dim or flickering lights

Poor fuel economy

Warning light in the speedometer of the vehicle

Car won't start

Good afternoon everyone, I'm worried about my 2019 Skoda Karoq Diesel with 13452 km on the clock. The car won't start, the fuel consumption is high, there's a warning sign in the speedometer and the interior lights sometimes flicker. I strongly suspect that this is due to a fault in the engine start/stop system. Have any of you had similar problems and can report on your experiences with the workshop? I would appreciate any tips. Thanks in advance!

Hey buddy, I can totally understand you, I had a similar problem with my Skoda Superb 2016 diesel. I also had high fuel consumption, the car wouldn't even start and the warning lights in the speedometer drove me crazy too. It turned out that the problem was with the battery and the starter motor. The engine start-stop system wasn't the problem at all, it was the erratic electrics in my car. In my case, the interior lighting didn't flicker, but it could be anything to do with your electrical system. So my advice is to go to the garage and have it checked by the professionals. It wasn't an easy thing to do, but they were able to fix it at the garage in the end. Hopefully that will help a little. Good luck!

Hi, thanks for your input! Interesting that it was your battery and starter motor. How much did you get away with at the garage for the repair and have there been any problems with it since? Your advice to have the electrical system checked is really helpful!

Hey, no problem, I'm glad if I can help! In my case, the cost of repairing the coding error was €230. Since I got the car back from the mechanic, everything has been running great and the problem with the engine start-stop system error has been completely fixed. So no more worries since then. Your Skoda Karoq will definitely run like clockwork again after the workshop visit!

Great, thank you very much for your help! It's always good to know that other people have had similar problems and have solved them. Your information is very valuable and it reassures me a little to know that the repair might not be as expensive as I had feared. I will tell my garage about your case and hope that they can fix the problem quickly. Thanks again and have a safe journey, buddy!
