  1. Low Battery warning keeps coming up even though car does lots of miles. Now Glow plug warning symbol coming up. Typical when all the garages are shut. I assume Glow plug warning because battery is faulty. Mostly Do not need car because of lock down but need sometimes to get shopping.
  2. Emerald Green they call it and that's the colour I have 1.6 SE L DSG, its a lovely colour Cannot fault the car, very nippy and 49mpg on normal mode and that's up and down the Pennines. I Don't bother with other modes as no effect. I used to have a 2.0L SE L DSG 4x4 Yeti which was a bit faster but hardly notice the difference. My only complaint is the Sat Nav, its terrible.
  3. I had a 2L SE L 4x4 Yeti DSG, didn't want to change at first. I now have 1.6 TDI SE L Karoq 2WD DSG and it is a far better car. Better fuel consumption, roomier and more comfortable Could not be happier with it.
  4. I have 1.6 Tdi SE L DSG in Emerald green, no problems, lovely car and the DSG is a dream. Averaging about 49mpg. I used to have a 2.0 TDi DSG Yeti and Koroq is better.
  5. Mine does the same too, clears itself after a few miles.
  6. I Have an Yeti Outdoor SE L 2.0 TDI CR DPF 150 PS 4x4 DSG and I love it. Plenty of poke when you need it and very good in mud and snow (I live in County Durham). On the motorway it cruises and overtakes with ease and I don't find it noisy at all. My son has an Octavia VRS and he was impressed with the poke of my yeti. Most of my journey's are up and down the pennines and I still get 43 mpg. On the motorway its about 47 mpg. I have not had any problems with it in the last year apart from a windscreen (stone from lorry). I'm 62 and disabled (hence the automatic) and quite honestly its the best car I have ever had. You will need to use adblue which has an akward filler in the boot. I've refilled twice in 12000 miles but its not expensive (£15 for 5 litres)
  7. I have a full analogue clock on my screen, just needs setting up to come on when screen is turned off.

    I have a 2.0L SE L, 65 plate and mine has it. It doesn't alway come on though.
  9. I have a 2.0 TDI, 150PS 4x4 DSG and it has certainly got grunt for overtaking.It has a sports mode but I never need it. I chose the black seats as didn't really take to the brown ones. I had an astra 2.0 TDI auto before this and much prefer the yeti.
  10. Sorry your right it is 4 litres (I got one last week) then got a 10 litre drum from a garage for £15. Because its heavier, don't let the bottle push down before you have screwed it on. Its also a little tight for space to get your fingers down to tighten it up.
  11. Halfords charge £15 for a 2 litre refillable bottle (starter kit)
  12. It is perfect for me. Both my ankles are fused as well as my right foot so I cannot move them. On previous cars (Focus, Astra) my right foot was always hovering which is very tiring. On the Yeti I can slide my foot forward on the hinged pedal and operate it without getting the tired leg syndrome. I know it sounds awkward but you get used to it. Mines also a DSG so that makes it easier. I've had the Yeti (2.0 TDI SE L 4x4 DSG) for 4 months now and I love it. I have my seat right up so my legs are pushing down rather than forward (I'm 5ft 4ins), The acceleration is brilliant, nearly as good as the 2.0 TDI Astra I had before. I never use the Speed option on gearstick as she pulls away VERY quick from a junction and accelerates very quickly to speed. There is plenty of room inside and the facia has everything you need but in a simple layout (unlike the plastic focus). The heated seats are brilliant up here in the frozen north and they heat all over the seat unlike the Astra which only heated the middle. Overall I can honestly say its the best car I've ever had.
  13. A stone chipped the screen on 8th March, called out Autoglass as per insurance and screen cracked when they tried to fix it. It then took autoglass 3 weeks to get the correct screen and fix it. Must admit they did a good job but was not impressed at the delay. Yeti Outdoor SE L 2.0 TDI CR DPF 150 PS 4x4 DSG
