Gumdrop I agree with you. The problem is that 1st gear is too low for a 'running start' at, say, a roundabout and in 2nd we had the problem referred to. Herpet

Aseem Ken Fowler suggests it is your driving mode. I would suggest that it is the car, not you. Since my original posting I have swapped my 2017 Yeti for an earlier model (2011 - reason had nothing to do with this problem) but I have never stalled in the same manner since. The only obvious difference is that the first Yeti had a stop/start mechanism whereas the earlier model does not. Does that apply in your case Aseem? Ken - Passed test in 1963 and have driven all sorts of vehicles since (including HGV's with need to double-declutch). Never had this problem before. Also, wife had same problem and I wouldn't dare tell her what you said!!! Regards Herpet

Aha!! So it is not my driving....... possibly..... Same problem in our 2016 Outdoor SE 2.0 Tdi. When negotiating a roundabout , or similar junction, it stalls just when you want to pull away. Most embarrassing and liable to a bash up the back end if somebody is behind you. Back to Skoda it would seem.
