There is a blue 1.4 13 reg for sale at 'Patons' in Shifnal looks a nice vehicle.

My towing eye was missing, I noticed after two years it was missing, so when the car went in for a service I said should I have one they said yes they would supply it, and they did. I think what happens when they check over a car on the PDI check and find it has the eye missing they take one from a showroom vehicle, then it has a knock on effect. When I used to be in the trade we used to do this with jacks and tool kits. but when we ordered a new kit for the showroom car it had been sold so we ended up the jack still in stores and forgot what car it was for..

Try using a wedge cushion it will help you to sit correctly, it helps me.

Thanks for the replies, Marbella does have a few hills. but I thought a 1.2 should get up them without using 1st. Mind you the previous car in the UK was 3 Ltr Merc. so that might be it.

Hi help please. I have a friend in Spain who has bought a second hand 1.2 Mk1 Yeti, when I asked how is the car, she said she has to use first gear to get up hills, I told her to take it back to the garage as she has 1 months warranty left. Could it be the the Turbo not working ? CHILLEY

I had the thing noise the other day looked everywhere for it, found it was my car 'iphone' lead which I keep in the center arm rest box. It sounded if it was coming from the near side rear door.

My renewal was £246, last year £217, with Churchill. With two named drivers, my daughter 29 years old and my friend she is 64. they have been on the insurance since I bought the car on the 1st of Jan 2012. So the first premium in 2012 was £189.00 with legal cover and courtesy car of the same type inclusive. the legal cover and courtesy car are extra to the premium so you don't have to have them. Remember if you put an older driver on cover as well it brings the premium down.

IMO for a start there is an oil leak, or is that water from the air con. It sounds as if the exhaust has blown and causing a rattle, in fact the engine sounds very noisy, it would not harm if you could get it on a lift and have a look with the engine running.

.Is the noise still there when you brake.

Look at on 'Halfords' 'Nextbase' Which and Auto Express recommend them, I have one fitted, very good indeed. Chilly.

I have had two sunroofs replaced in 4 years, with air con the sunroof had little use, so I would think twice before I ordered another Yeti with a sunroof, and it's only done 12600 miles. . Mind you I think a few mods have since been made to the frame to stop the water leaks. But I still love the car.

Yes you must get the screen done under warranty, they might say get it replaced under your insurance. so say no, the warranty will cover it. I had my screen replaced no problems. I had a vertical strip of 2'' from top to bottom that would not clear.

My 140 2012, 12500 miles = summer 35 to 38 mpg Local max 3 miles. stay in 4th. Long trips 38 to 48 mpg. Winter 33 to 35 mpg Local. Long trips about the same. (Long Trips MW and A roads) I have recorded mpg from the day I bought the Yeti. Staying in 4th gear on short trips helps the DPF as the engine warms up to working temp after a good 3 miles.

A very Happy new year to you all and hoping your Yeti stays well.

Can I be so rude and ask you who supplied them, as I am getting quotes for cross climates, mine are 17'' on a 140. Regards Chilley
