  1. Some guidance please. I have had to replace the combined Xenon headlight and driving/fog light unit on the near side of my 13 Yeti. The new unit is an OEM one from the local dealer. I swapped over the aluminium control unit and plus bulb holders etc. and reassembled everything. It all works except for the Xenon headlight, and there seems to be no ‘sweep’ on start up from the other one that lights up. All connections seem OK but if anyone could suggest how to diagnose the fault I would be very grateful.
  2. I fitted 18 inch wheels to my yeti and had no problems. The wheels rotate less for speed/distance which marginally reduced the speed readout compared to GPS. Since the speedo is very optimistic anyway this is not an issue. As long as the wheel / tyres are the same size and wear is reasonably balanced, there will be no issue with tyre pressure monitoring or differential locks etc. I believe both VW and Audi offer larger wheels / tyres on their equivalent models, effectively on the same chassis. I think Skoda do not offer them as fashion or 'bling' wheels do not fit with their market position for the Yeti as a utility/'Ronseal' vehicle. 17" are cheaper and do all that they require. Use what you have.
