Wish I had found this thread before having my screen replaced. Couldn't fault the guys at SatNav Systems Ltd. They diagnosed the problem and did it while I waited. Still way cheaper than the dealer diagnosis of a new system!

Yes, I agree to a certain extent. I think the £30 ones are for the older systems. Best I can find at the moment is about £400. The Yeti owners club forum has a post on this with some part numbers. I could probably have done it myself. However, if I had messed it up it’s massively expensive to rectify!

Hi Everyone. Just had similar problems with my Yeti 2015 Amundsen 2. Initially started with not being able to input some post codes then the map jumping around. Skoda dealers useless, just want to charge silly money to possibly diagnose which seems to be a known fault. Searched locally for an 'Infotainment Expert' to no avail. Finally found a company called SATNAV SYSTEMS (UK) Ltd. At last someone who knew what they were talking about. Hamid diagnosed the problem in a couple of minutes as screen digitiser failure, a known problem to them with 2015/2016 Amundsen 2 units, They even keep the parts in stock. Fixed in an hour but with a bill of £718. Ouch! A way to test for this is to put the screen 'beep' setting on and touch different parts of the screen. Some parts will not beep. Apparently it starts with just a few areas then spreads as mine did and then takes over the screen. They call it 'Ghost Finger'. THIS SHOULD BE SUBJECT TO A RECALL. I will be contacting Skoda UK but I feel I will get the normal dealer type response of 'Never heard of this failure' or something similar.

Any tech guys out there? I've just bought at Yeti L & K 2015. Decided to update the maps which were working fine to 2020/21 via the portal. Followed all the instructions from putting VIN in etc. The SD card is a proper Skoda one that came with the car. System recognises the database and the map looks fine but when I try to put in a GL or CV postcode it won't accept the L or the V even though they are not greyed out. When i try to navigate to my home setting it says there is no mapping. Have tried unzipping with different software and different computer but to no avail!! Any ideas? Cheers
