  4. I have a Amundsen + RNS315  that I took out of my 2010 Octavia and put back standard radio before replacing with a Yeti.I want to fit this radio to a classic car that I have. As Skoda can not supply me with wiring sockets that go into back of radio I will have to sorce from breaker. The problem that I have is that I will need a wiring diagram to see where wires from sockets go, preferably coloured. Can anyone help please?

  5. I have a 2016 1.2 Automatic Yeti that I am very pleased with but would like to change the DRL bulbs to LED.It seems that some models do have LED DRL bulbs fitted as standard.The daylight running lights are part of the main headlights . I have had the fitted bulbs out and they seem to be twin filment small baynet bulbs. Has anyone come across replacement LED bulbs and if so have you got part number.

  6. My 2016 1.2 DSG Yeti came with out spare wheel only 'repair kit'. Over weekend managed to get a new full size alloy wheel and new tyre from a former owner of a Yeti. Has anyone come accross a lift up cover for full size spare wheel or is DIY job?. The chap I bought it off gave me a bracket to fit wheel standing upright but it means that I have to remove the boot cover that is attached to tailgate.

  7. Having owned a Suberb  and until today a Octavia (both automatic) today I stole a Yeti !!! Well not exactly stole but bought a 2016 Yeti 110bhp 1.2 automatic with 4561 miles on clock from Skoda main dealer at a very good price and even got £40 petrol FOC. From I gather it is an Ex Mobility car that has not been used for a year. Any problems with car, yes, its white but at price I got it at I don't care. Its got 9 months Skoda warrantee left plus an extra 3 months from dealer.Pick it up on Wednesday after it has full service.

Went out on Sunday after the car had been standing for 2 weeks and miles per gallon reading was working but on Monday reading did not cancel at start of new journey.

  12. I had this problem a few years ago on my Superb and was caused by blockage of sunroof drain pipes. If you open sunroof you will see drain holes on either side of frame. These drain holes run down windscreen frame and come out beside bottom door hinge. There is a rubber/plastic teet beside hinge which gets blocked.Pour some water onto the frame and then  get your fingers to the teet and squease it a few times and you will aventually see all water coming through.Do this a few times until water runs clear.

  13. Regarding overheating, I fitted it Jan 2016 and it has stayed on since.I've done a fair bit of motorway driving during summer and no problemsThere is a big grille under bumper bar and enough air gets through there. The cover is made by a company in CZ who have supplying after market parts for Skoda for a long time and it takes about 15 mins to fit. If I travelled on motorway all the time maybe not a problem, but most of roads where I live are 30 mph ( 50 kmph) and 50 mph (80 kmph ) before I get to motorway. I have driven many diesel cars in Russia and eastern Europe at temperatures of -30 plus, and this is one the poorest heaters that I come across.Well no it is not the heater it is the length of time it takes the engine to get up to running temperature.Prior to owning Octavia I had a Superb and did not have heater problems.

  14. The engine on my 2010 diesel Octavia is very slow to warm up so it takes quite some time for heater to warm up so last year I bought and fitted a winter grille cover from superskoda .com which has done a lot to help engine get up to temperature quicker. Before fitting it could take up to 10 mile in cold weather to get any heat from heater, since fitting down to about half that distance.I have spoken to dealer and was told that this was a problem with diesel engines and also been in contact with Skoda UK and didnt get any good advice from them. Yesterday I was speaking to friend in Slovakia where it was -15 deg and subject came around to heater problem. He told me he does not have this problem as they have a factory fitted option of having a Wabasto type auxillery diesel heater fitted.Why do we in UK not have this option ??

  15. Oil and filter changed every 40,000 miles or 4 year which ever comes first. Not a DIY  job as has to filled from bottom .Just had mine changed at officail dealer.Danny 57 is right there is a drain and filler plug combinded. I think I would be changing my service dealer if that is advice he gives you.
