Update: Strut installation done. Working fine. Acts stiffer than OE strut.

Hi All, thank you all for the comments. Planning a service this week. Have to do the below. 1) Turning off issue. 2) Engine oil change. 3) Filter replacements. 4) Front antiroll bar change (Only bush has to change. But it is not available in local market. So changing the anti roll bar kit which is available with service centre). 5) Haldex oil change. 6) Dashboard rattling issue.

@rustynuts. 1. Dash light is on. 2. Stage 1: Engine is not turning on. Only starter motor is on. Stage 2: Engine is on but refuses to start (it happens after 5 mnts approximately) Stage 3: Engine refusal is becoming less. Stage 4: Engine is on like normal days. 3. first time it happened @ 105000km approx , 2nd time is @ 109500km approx.

Grab from Yeti Manual. My civic is picking from 18kmph in 3rd gear without knocking, and without slipping the clutch. Yeti is picking from 20 Kmph without knocking. I will be checking the diesel filter in the upcoming service whether it needs to be changed or not. Thanks all for the reply.

🙂.Not sure about the fuel quality.

The engine off is not like an absence of power because of inappropriate gear. Its like smooth off. Not a sudden halt. Secondly, engine is not turning on for at least 15 mnts (min). Why it is happening ?. Something with diesel filter ?!! I have 4*4, 140 bhp version, without pressing the accelerator, vehicle can easily catch 30 kmph in 3 gear.(Try to change the gear only by depending the default acceleration. apply clutch in a smooth manner). I am sure it is not because of power issue.

I have faced this issue twice in My yeti, 2011 model, 110000 km odo. Vehicle is turning off in an inclined road about 20 degree. first time it happened during a 30 km continuous drive, around 35 degrees outside. Second time during 320km continuous drive. Vehicle is turning off in an inclined plane, third gear around 30 kmph speed. after that, 1. Vehicle is not cranking around 5 mnts. 2.After 5 mnts, yeti making initial starting sound (starter motor i think). 3. after 10mnts, engine starting but quickly turning off. 4. after approximately 15 mnts , engine started like normal engine. 5. No warning messages except maintenance symbol. No limp mode. No other warning signs. 6 had a talk with servicing technician in Bangalore. He is pointing out it may be because of 4 wheel self protection system. Any one came across an issue like this ?. please share your thoughts.

Thanks Carlo. I will try it.

This is the B4,s i bought . The marked holes are to connect the stabilizer link. If its not mirrored it will twist the antiroll bar in a parallel road itself. right ?

Hi Urrell, Thanks for the reply. I bought equivalent item for 3C0 413 031 BC. its mentioned as 2 numbers. the attached

Hi, I am in between replacing my front suspension struts. Got a doubt that "Front struts are mirror to one another( part with different numbers) ? or same part number for both sides" ?. Anyone changed front struts, please help.

Hi Andrew, thanks for th info.

Anyone felt small pulsation on the clutch pedal, when pressing 1/4 of the clutch pedal ?. Is this normal in tdi engine ?

This is a good reference for clutch & flywheel replacement.

Hi, recently bought a Skoda Yeti , 4*4, 140 HP, 97000 km ODO. This is the first time I am owning diesel engine. I was doing some inspection under the hood. There is a minor oil leakage on the hose, connecting between the intercooler & turbo. Pointed this to mechanic and he replied nothing to be worried. It's normal in this Engine. My question is some one else faced this ?. Is it something to be worried or just leave as it is.?

Drove more than 450 km after clutch overhaul. Yeti is running fine. Clutch feel is good. Clutch doesn't feel heavy.

@Warrior193 couldn't see much of material removal on the part. Image attached. I think Urrell make sense. Still I didn't check the assembly thickness of 3 plates. Another thought- Release bearing stroke may be enough to handle both diaphragms. Strut bearing+ tie rod+ stabilizer link+ front brake pad replacement + front brake disc facing has to be completed. Will be completing the work today. Planning to test drive tomorrow morning.

Didn't feel the slipping. There was a kind of metal vibration sound when pressing the clutch when the vehicle is in neutral. Thats why opened the housing. Flywheel surface has markes+ friction plate is almost gone+ release bearing making some noise when moving forth & back. Just got a reply from skoda service centre. We can use LUK/ SACHS. Diaphragm shape can change. only thing is, assemble complete kit ( flywheel+ clutch plates + release bearing). Don't do any mixing between different brand parts. Warrior 193- thanks for the reply. Clutch feel- I will update you once after finishing the overhaul.

Hi, I am in between integrating the new clutch kit ( 3P+ release bearing). In new pressure plate, th fingers are little bit projected out compared to the old one. Fingers: the sheet metal fingers where release bearing contacts the clutch. Old one is made by Sachs and new one is Luk. Any one experienced this ?. Pictures attached.
