Monoboy

Yeah, I don't know. I ran it in third gear above 3000 for a few miles then took it for a 30-minute blast in the motorway. The oil temperature was in the 90s. That should trigger a regen, but I can't tell for sure.

Quick update on this. I had the battery properly tested and its working well within the optimum. It isn't that. I had a pal run a diagnostic with his machine and it registered an emissions error, no specific code. I reset it and went for a high rev spin to force a regen. It ran without issue all week until yesterday. First I got a glow plug error; now, I get the engine warning. So it looks like it might be a DPF problem. I'll have to get it looked at it. Deep sigh.

No, I just tested it in the morning, and that was the reading I got. It's for keeping bike Bike batteries maintained but it should be accurate. I took it for a run and both warning lights didn't come back on. For the first time in a week. It's a bit odd. Possibly a clog or some sort of computer malfunction? I runs like it always has, pulls like a train. I might try another garage.

I used my bike multimeter; it's used for maintaining a charge for prolonged periods of inaction. The reading is an overnight, from cold. So 12.8v should be reasonably accurate. As for cost, it was the risk of one snapping off, not so much the parts it labour.

He didn't, we left it. Mainly because of cost and he didn't seem too bothered by it. I've just checked the battery, 12.8v, 0.85 amps. Is that in good operable order? Thanks again.

Thanks Austin, it looks like a trip to Skoda specialist is needed.

He must've have meant the glow plug two? Although the issue with the battery intrigues me, it hasn't been replaced since new. That could be a simple one. Thanks for the replies.

To add, I've been making a lot more short journeys recently.

Hi, I wondered if anyone could help with a specific error code. I have a 1.6 TDI Greenline II with nearly 100K on the clock. It started displaying a Glow plug error last week and going into limp mode. Despite the warm weather. I took it to a garage to get serviced and checked out. The mechanic said the diagnostic picked up an error two code, but nothing else, and suggested keeping an eye on it for now. Does anybody know what an error two is? I'm presuming it's minor? It's intermittent, and goes on a few minutes after stating the engine from cold, then a reboot switches it off and it runs perfectly. Although the start/stop function hasn't worked properly for years. It only kicks in when the car is red hot from the motorway. It annoyed me anyway, so I would switch it off. However, the engine warning light came on yesterday as well. As did a message about the start/stop error on the dash when switching off. Making me think it might be the ERG valve or DPF. A common fault on older Yetis. Nightmare. Can anybody advise before I take it back, or will a long-trip with my foot to the floor help? I love this car, it's like a tank. I don't want to replace it just yet. P.S. It's the notorious VAG dieselgate engine, I didn't get it sorted. Thanks in advance, Will

Hello, Joining with the hope of finding out if my beloved Yeti, with nearly 100K on the clock, will survive to make it for a years more years. Thanks, Will
