The EPC light on our Yeti (1.2 TSi SE, 2WD, 6 months old) has now come on 4 times, with a resulting severe loss of power. On each occasion it has happened within 5 to 10 minutes of starting from cold, the the Maxidot display says "Engine Management Failure". We have stopped as soon as possible and turned the ignition off. After waiting for a couple of minutes, tried starting again and after that no problem - car behaved as normal. We were quite worried the first time it happened!
After it happened for a second time (and near home this time) my wife took the car in to the Skoda dealer we purchased the car from. They looked at the diagnostics from the onboard computer and said it indicated that there had been a problem with the turbo, but to leave it for the moment and see if it happens again.
Since its happened two more times we will take the car in again as soon as its convenient, but I would be interested if anyone else has experienced this problem and what the solution if any is. I tried searching on this forum but didn't find anything.
thanks in advance for any help!
