  1. If you buy Milenco mirrors then you will need to change the standard pads to F-pads available from the caravanshop.

     

    Copied from another site (2018)

    I tow a Coachman Pastiche 460 with a 2015 Skoda Superb Estate Mk3, using Milenco Grand Aero mirrors. I did have a problem last year with one mirror fixing slipping off the door mirror – the door mirror is slightly bevelled and also has an indentation between the body of the mirror and the rim. It may well be that the Kodiaq mirrors are of similar design.

    My problem has been entirely solved by the use of the Milenco Aero F pads, which have a small ridge on the face of the pads, which fits into the indentation on the door mirrors. These pads are well hidden on the Milenco website and I have not seen them well publicised. I got mine from www.thecaravanshop.co.uk , where they are stock number 4664 and cost £6.95 plus £1.95 p&p. Well worth it for peace of mind.

     

  2. I use Milenco mirrors,. You need to change the standard pads that grip the mirrors for Milenco aero f pads, available from thecaravanshop. They make a world of difference. Fix to the top of the mirror and you can keep the folding function

  3. I think you can get to it using a long 4 mm allen T bar. Don't know whereabouts it is on the engine. Not seen it done myself so cant be 100% sure.

    Is the crank sensor faulty or could it be a carboned up throttle, a known fault on this model.

  4. My 2012 yeti 170 had this problem at four and a half years old, 32000 miles, before the fix. Put right by my local Dealer (D.M.Keith Bradford) at no cost to me. Skoda Paid.

    Throttle body cleaned and a mod done to stop a reoccurrence. They also replaced  the throttle sensor and the accelerator. Had a loan Skoda Superb whilst Yeti was off the road. The car had a dealer full service history. Good luck Voxmagna

    I understand that Skoda actually make the Ateca in the Czech Republic and stick a SEAT badge on it.

    According to the advert. Its created in Barcelona.

    Would VAG tell porkies??

    Seriously, an Ateca is top of my next car list at the moment

  6. I didn't notice mine had stopped working until I towed the caravan to the dealers for its service. Front wheels scrabbling when setting off uphill on a wet road. Turned out that the control unit had failed or so the service receptionist said. Replaced under warranty.
