  1. You didn't mention that you did this in the reset procedure, but I thought (I haven't needed to reset mine for years) that when you first open the window you need to hold the open button for several seconds as well as holding when closed?
  2. Could it be an engine/gearbox mounting?
  3. If you DO have the control shown in the photo then you DON'T have HID (xenon) lights.
  4. Be aware there is an airbag beneath it so don't poke sharp tools in there!
  5. PDC

    You may not know then that when you lock the car with the fob, but continue to press the fob lock button for a few seconds the mirrors will fold in? (They will unfold again when you next start the engine)
  6. A common way to help detecting the route of the ingress of water is to apply a light dusting of talcum powder all around the wet area and the likely areas of entry.....
  7. Yes, but has the garage taken it out of park mode? Eg does it now permanently record?
  8. Did your garage do something to the dashcam eg disconnect it (as I believe many do so as not to record any conversations or events within the workshop) if they did disconnect/reconnect it maybe it's gone back to a default mode that constantly draws power?
  9. Your car may only be using accelerometer sensors as e.g. when you go through a tunnel the sat nav still tracks the car's movement even when it's not receiving any gps signals.
  10. Is your seat adjustable up/down? If so is it set to the highest position? I'm not sure if all Yeti models have that feature. Edit: Also a read through this thread on the darkside might be useful https://www.yetiownersclub.co.uk/threads/seat-squab-angle-modification.6886/
  11. Just a random thought; A previous car I had was Diesel x-type Jaguar. A peculiar issue was found with a couple of owners (not with mine though) where smooth gear changing became erratic. The cause was found to be a faulty switch on the clutch pedal(!) Apparantly the switch, when working correctly, cause the engine revs to die rapidly when the clutch pedal is pushed down and the throttle pedal released. This 'feature' could be tested on a correctly working car by driving along at eg 40mph, then slipping the car into neutral. If the throttle was then released, it would be seen that the engine revs would not immediately drop, however the moment the clutch pedal was dabbed (with the the car still in neutral) and the revs would drop to idle. Anyway the upshot of the Yeti issue. Is it possible you have your foot on the clutch pedal when you see this hesitation issue? Maybe there is a switch on the clutch pedal for a similar function to my X-type and it is faulty or needs adjustment?
  12. My understanding is that Mib 2 is simply the 'generation' (eg age range) of headunits and can be either Bolero, Amundsen or Columbus.
  13. Well googling this issue on the volkswagen forums, it would seem that the problem is often cured by flashing a different version of software into one or more modules e.g. the dash cluster and/or the headunit.....
  14. Looks like it has a sunroof, so after a shunt like that I guess it's even more likely to leak?
  15. IMHO I don't think it could be a fault with an axle sensor, as AFAIK there is only one sensor each at the front and rear, so if either was to be faulty both headlights would be similarly affected?
  16. Has the multi-stage unlocking inadvertently been enabled for that key?
  17. What happens if you click on the drop down arrow (I've circled in red)?
  18. Not sure which model of admundsen you have, but this reply on another thread may help? (Click on the "11 April, 2021")
  19. The audio clip is from a different car (in Australia).
  20. Is your radio/audio sytem turned on? If so I wonder if you have inadvertantly enabled the tmc/ tp feature (traffic reports). Maybe your radio is beeping because it can't get a tmc signal, although I'm not sure if there is a TMC system in use in Australia? TMC has now been turned off in the UK much to the annoyance of many drivers.
  21. Well, I have a similar dilemma with my Yeti. It too still has its original battery. The car will be eleven years old in November. It shows no signs yet of any weakness (I am firmly touching wood as I type this!) The Yeti was garaged overnight for a few years during the covid lockdowns but now stays outside again. Should I replace the battery regardless before Winter?

    I wonder how effective one of these (or similar) would be? https://www.everycarcovered.com/collections/skoda/yeti
  23. Those companies (and others) do still exist, and they will treat modern cars too. Here's a couple of examples. https://www.lanoguard.co.uk/pages/application-centres https://www.waxoyltreatment.co.uk/about-us/
  24. Hi, Are your reversing lights working? If not the problem may be the reversing light switch or its associated wiring/ fuse.
