  1. Hi Had to use Skoda Assist for the first time yesterday, whilst on on a site for work went to set off home and car would not start, glowplug light was flashing and after turning car over for a while nothing. The RAC guy checked diagnostics and found a low fuel pressure issue, car then recovered to a dealer in Glasgow and I'm awaiting a diagnostic today and hopefully my car back!! Anyone else had similar problems? can't fault the Skoda Assist system and the RAC guy was great.
  2. Now told its the Lamda sensor and awaiting parts sigh
  3. Thanks, it sounds similar and I hope its that simple.
  4. Hi I've just taken my car back to the dealer today for the second time in a few weeks for the same apparent fault. A few weeks agon the Engine Control Systemm for Exhaust light came on it would be on for a few hundred miles then go off for few hundred and then back on, no drop off in performance or limp mode. Took car to a local dealer in Glasgow and they diagnosed the EGR valve neede replacing so after two days picked it up, all seemed fine but after about 150 miles the light came on again so its gone back today and I'm awaiting the call from the dealer to tell me whats wrong this time. I have a Yeti Elegance 4x4 with the 2.0 TDI 170 engine. Anyone else had similar faults and what was the diagnosis, I've read on another forum that it can take a while to get to the root cause of this one and several visits to the dealer. Any advice would be appreciated.
  5. Hi My Yeti is a few weeks old and has only 500 miles on the clock, on my journey to glasgo this morning (135 miles) I noticed when I arrived that the fan was still running and there was a smell of hot engine, is this normal or just running in? I didnt exceed the speed limits and it was a constant run on A roads and motorways.
  6. Hi Rather than start a new thread I thought I'd add to this one. Picked up my new Yeti on Saturday 170 Elegance and very pleased with it, drove it back from Carlisle and then this morning up to Glasgow, very enjoyable driving experience.
  7. There will be one more on the road in Cumbria from Saturday.
  8. Looks like I may be getting a my Yeti next week as the dealer has a cancellation of the same spec I ordered, which is ideal as my Passat died last wek with four dead injectors. Its been an expensive week so far but a new Yeti will sweeten the pain.
  9. I ordered my 170 Elegance in early November and was quoted delivery at the end of april (Build week 13) last week was quoted end of may for delivery, the reason for the change, i opted for sat nav a week after I ordered! But they did say they would honour my trade in price. The dealer is not very good at communicating I have to chase them.
  10. Hi I ordered my Yeti 170 Elegance in mid November and was quoted build as week 13. When I phoned a few weeks ago they were still quoting week 13 but looking through this forum there are various timescales quoted from placing order to actual build so I'm not sure if mine will be ontime or not. I've noticed that some on here says they have spoken to SUK to see where they are within the queue, I presume you need some form of ID/order number from the dealer to be able to do that, can someone enlighten me. Thanks
