Skoda Karoq radar sensor malfunction

I'm having some trouble with my 2021 Skoda Karoq with a gasoline engine. It has about 217913 km on it. I keep getting an error message about the radar sensor. It also says there's an error stored in the error memory. Because of that it seems multiple systems are failing and the warning light is on. Could this be a simple sensor failure? Any ideas what to check?

I had a similar issue with my Karoq. The error messages and warning lights were quite annoying. Have you checked if the radar sensor is clean? Sometimes, dirt or snow can interfere with its operation.

Where exactly is the radar sensor located? And what did you use to clean it? I don't want to damage anything.

Mine was located behind the front grill, fairly easy to spot. I didn't want to risk anything so I just went to the workshop and they did it. If cleaning doesn't solve it, you might need radar calibration.

I cleaned the radar sensor, and it seems to have fixed the problem. No more error messages, and all systems are working again. The total cost was only 45€ for the cleaning solution. Thanks for your help!
