  1. Sorry to resurrect an old post. I today have taken delivery of Skoda Enyaq Lounge and very happy with it. I knew I wasn't getting the phone box. Is this something that can be easily retrofitted, but as I am just looking for wireless charging, has anyone found a OEM solution or one that plugs into the USB-C socket that fits neatly in the cubby hole?
  2. I had a windscreen replaced on my Yeti Elegance under warranty as this was the cause of the leak. Do a hosepipe test and see if this is the problem.
  3. Now...slightly back on topic....I am desperate for DAB and quite keen for MDI. I have a 2011 Yeti Elegance with a Columbus. Is it an entirely new antenna assembly or can I simply purchase an updated Columbus? Does anyone actually know about us poor early adopters?
  4. Now had the 'antenna booster' replaced under warranty and all has been fine for a couple of weeks so far.
  5. Mine (also a 2010 spec Yeti) has started showing the same problem. It got lost last week and then got better after leaving it for a couple of hours. Its now happened again and doesn't seem to want to fix itself. What is the standard Yeti warrarny period? If its 2 years - I'm just okay. I wonder if I should buy the extended warranty as these antenna components are jolly pricey!
  6. I stream music (and digital radio too sometimes) quite a lot. I can't however get the artist and title to display on my maxidot. Do I have an older version of the Bluetooth module in a 2011 Elegance with a Columbus?
  7. What do you call experienced? How does one get this experience? Towing for years lighter vans heavier cars with no issues - is that experience? Or pushing the margins and see what happens? What I want to know is how unstable a heavier van would be and how the Yeti deals with it. This is the problem with the Yeti is too damn light and a family sized van is difficult to find for the Yeti.
  8. I always submit an advertising invoice to the dealership for the display of a sticker. Amazing how quickly they remove it.
  9. TriforLife - Woburn Abbey Knackered after taking an all day affair swimming, cycling and running, but very pleased to see a similar Pacific Blue Yeti (with Dog Guard and personalised plates) in the Car Park!
  10. Trawling through a search for this problem. I have a Mar 2011 Yeti Elegance with a Columbus. My wife's iPhone 3GS works fine but my brand new 4GS does not and although is connected - shows missed calls. The phone also appears to exhibit problems connecting to the wireless network and won't always collect email when connected. I have to reboot the phone to make calls via Bluetooth again. Did anyone ever find a solution to this really rather annoying problem??
  11. They'll be a Pacific Blue 4x4 170 Elegance in Weymouth for the duration of the Olympics! I'm volunteering as a T3 driver in a BMW.
  12. Driving home from St Albans (after seeing a black Yeti parked in Blue Horse Hill) we got a very friendly wave from another black (or very dark Blue) coming Southbound J5 on the M1 for Watford. Was it us, or were you hanging back to double check it was a Yeti about to pull up adjacent at the roundabout?
  13. Mmmm think it might have been us - we were near Paultons Park and around there and then headed up the M27/A30 back to the old smoke! Don't remember taking two hands off the wheel but saw what must be you waving tentatively. We saw at least four Yetis, including following two in the space of a few minutes. Must be furtive breeding grounds in the New Forest!
  14. This was my experience. My washer stopped working completely until the fuse was replaced. Does this feature vary if you have xenons or heated windscreen or soemthing as to which fuse it goes on?
  15. Having just fitted Dunlop Wintersports onto 16" steel rims on Saturday in readiness for a drive to the Swiss Alps I had to go to Wembley from Northwood early on Sunday morning. It really was so uneventful even in six inches of snow up an steep incline. I was tempted to take out the other car (Volvo V40 which slips and slides around generally), just to prove to myself that the 4x4 and snow tyres combination was so good. Roll on Switzerland!
