Hi all Further to this problem does anyone know where in the boot lid the aerial antenna amplifier (part number 5L6035577A) is located, and, more importantly, how to get to it!!! I thought I would try this first as a) it is cheaper and b) I thought it would be easier to get to (although having tried to remove some of the inner covers on the boot lid I'm not so sure now). Thanks

Just checked reception on my DAB radio in the house and all DAB stations are playing fine so no transmission issues.

Hi Having searched the forum I’ve been unable to find anything that addresses my problem. I have a 2014 plate Skoda Yeti Greenline 1.6TDi Exclusive fitted with an Amundsen Radio/Sat Nav. Recently I’ve been finding that the DAB reception has been dropping out a lot more than usual, this tends to be intermittent with no real pattern to it. The radio is set to default to the equivalent FM signal if there is one and this is what has been happening. I’ve had the radio out to look at the connections and cabling at the back but can see no obvious problems. When I long press the settings button in radio mode I pull up the service menu, this consists of 4 sub menus: FM Monitor, AM Monitor, DAB Monitor and Versions. When selecting the FM and AM Monitors they both show Ant 1 on, however the DAB Monitor shows Ant 1 off but with a strong signal (green bar) and GOOD in the right hand top corner. Not sure where to look now, replacing the antennae base is an expensive option and it might not be that, as is replacing the head unit. I’ve read on this forum that there are 2 antennae’s for the DAB with one situated in the rear screen heater element. There is no mention of a second antennae in the service menu. Was wondering if there is a pre amp somewhere for the DAB which may be faulty causing it to show no antennae but still giving a strong signal? Clutching at straws here but has anyone any ideas? I’ve even tried rebooting the radio by removing the fuse and leaving it for 10 minutes but still no luck and, of course, deleting my presets and rescanning. When I tried retuning the DAB, I got a list of stations (all BBC, most national (notable exception is Planet Rock!!!) and most local but there is the crossed out antenna sign against all of them. However, when I set my preselects again they appear as DAB stations and in fact if I select them they will play for a varying length of time in DAB mode until switching (where available) to the FM channel. I live just west of Worcester on the Hereford/Worcester border, I've had no previous issues with DAB reception up until a couple of weeks ago (even got Planet Rock). If anyone could shed any light on the DAB set up from Antennae to radio it might JUST shed some light on the potential cause of the problem. I just can't understand if the system is telling me that the DAB antennae is off (and there appears to be no way to turn it on) how is it receiving information on the DAB stations to be able to list them and is able to play on DAB for varying lengths of time? I'm a very confused Yeti owner!!!! Thanks in advance

Hi Spiz, yes the numbers on there from my wheel conform to those you quoted, I was looking for information as to the visual difference between the original Dolomite (same part number) wheels with a revision b suffix and the New Dolomite wheels with the T and M suffix. Hi Ken, could you provide a link or name for this site? Cheers

Hi I have a 2014 Yeti GreenLine II 1.6TDI, I've managed to crack an alloy wheel in two places and am told that it is beyond repair. The part number cast into the wheel is 5L0 601 025 T or M. I have been offered a wheel with the same part number but with a revision B number. I spoke with Skoda but the very helpfull guy in the parts department couldn't shed furthe light on the B revision from the data he held. He was also confused by this and was so intrigued he did further research resulting in a phone call back to me with the following information: the ones with the B revision were fitted to Yeti’s up to 2010 (I think that was the date he said) and that they are Dolomite wheels, he told me that the ones fitted to mine (revision M or T) come up as New Dolomite wheels (fitted to later models) on their system (he couldn’t tell me what the differences were between the original Dolomite wheels and the New Dolomite wheels, all he could suggest was that I visually compare them!). When he entered this part number 5L0 601 025 B into their system it also came up that these were 17” wheels and not 16”. However, I looked on the official Yeti ETKA part number site and both 16” and 17” wheels appear to have the same part numbers (albeit with some different revision numbers) but I can't find one with a B revision! This is all very confusing and at the moment I’m not sure what to do. I think that the revision B will fit my car (if they are 16") but are there any visual differences? Any advice help would be gratefully received. Thanks
