Not unless a timing belt rattles on startup 😅

ausbinny started following Skoda Yeti Door Lock Mechanism KESSY , (Dancing)Headlights , Yeti Engine Start Stop Switch Replacment and 1 other

Also if there is an actual issue you will get a error message on the display and a indicator light on the display also
-
Replaced with a new version - working fine now hard to find in Australia and all available on Alexi Express/ eBay seem to be for LHD 😑
-
Not sure if the recall works have been done but I have been getting it serviced at Audi- I’ll check it out (have previously had the mechatronic changed under warranty before the 2019 recall) timing chain hasn’t been changed, yes when there isn’t enough sealant after hundreds of heat cycles and vibration then you get leaking (if that’s what you meant)
-
Looks like from the cam cover at the top and also likely the main timing chain cover as well (I’ve heard that VW don’t put enough sealant on) I’ll check the gearbox as well (DSG) oil filter looks good- no leaks there
-
Had my button replaced under warranty 3 times, now out of warranty thanks for the part number for when it needs replacing next time (likely soon)
-
No, Just recently noticed drops of oil under my 2015 Yeti, 80000 km's leaking at the top and by the sound of yours the bottom as well - 😐 Any DIY's on here for the 1.2 TSI ??

Yes already done, it's the new version of the wiring -

Hey Skoda Yeti dudes' My 2015 5L Yeti has an issue with the Drivers door not locking or unlocking (using the keyless entry) it unlocks / locks all the other doors though It appears to be the door lock mechanism - and I am in need of a replacement the part number I have found is 5E2837016A (apparently also on the VW Passat without the A on the end) also the 2015 Golf part 5K2837016E (looks the same except with a bit of an extra removeable cover) HAs anyone else had to replace theirs and if so where did you get the part from (I'm still waiting for a response from Skoda AU)

I've had the start button replaced twice in 5 years on my Yeti - If the key fob battery is low push the key fob on the start button this will get it to start (if key fob battery is the issue) If engine battery is in poor condition this will make the push button start reluctant / slow to work - but if you have to push hard / multiple times its the button itself A good trick if the button is on the way out is to use your fingers in a high speed jab and hold on the button this seems to work much better than multiple attempts or just pushing the button hard I'm not sure why these seem so unreliable my 22 year old Subaru's key works fine and it's never been replaced 🤣
-
Put the screws back in (check the length 1st you may need to get shorter screws) with an appropriate sized O ring at the top
-
I've now received and fitted the factory fronts and rears (95 days after ordering) factory option rears are substantially larger than the flat versions in my pics
-
Let us know if you notice much difference when it's done
-
The 235 / 45 would be the better of the two larger options You also need to take into consideration the width of the rim I'm sure a 245 tyre needs to be mounted on a 8&1/2" wide rim

Mine does it as well going from braking in forwards then braking in reverse
