  1. Dead pump caused by lack of oil/filter change is the normal cause.
  2. Its a big county but where in Devon are you, I am near Bideford I have software tools to read the fault codes and the state of the DPF if its of use. Oh and if there are pre existing faults the dealer is liable for the first six months.
  3. Have you pressed the load/eject button and selected an empty slot before trying to insert a CD?
  4. I discovered that mine had gone within a week of purchase, phoned the dealer, who was 100miles away, and told him I was getting it fixed and he was paying. He duly paid for it to be done.😁 If you can find one get a 170 it's the best within that price range 😎
  5. It can fail anytime after about 30k from the previous service depending on the filter. Had my pump changed at 90k as it had failed, serviced at 115k and it had failed again by 135k as despite asking for it to be done the filter wasn't changed at 90 or 115, I believe it was only cleaned at 90k and untouched at 115k. 😠 I now insist on seeing the old filter after a service to make sure it's been changed.
  6. It should also work with VAGDPF* so you can monitor the state of your DPF * Only available for Android not iPhone
  7. I felt the brakes were not up to much when I got the Yeti having come from an Octavia vRs So I swapped to the larger discs, and the problem went away. Three years later all is still fine.
  8. What age is the car? Early BT systems dont stream music just the phone call audio. Mine is 2010 and built a couple of months before full BT was fitted :(
  9. Not that I am aware of, I know that VAG-DPF is Android only as the writer only does Android, there may be something I just don't know, never having had an iPhone. To be honest a cheap secondhand android phone is less than £20 doesn't need a SIM as can be updated over WiFi and will give you a dedicated unit.
  10. Yes, but there are cheaper versions available mine was about £10 and runs Carista and VAG-DPF although not at the same time☺️
  11. VAG-DPF is the software for Android and it works with most Bluetooth/OBDII adapters
  12. They will all become Static Caravans 🤫
  13. I've given up going shopping, I just get it all delivered
  14. And here is one with the spare wheel. I have to say 18 months after i did this the MDF is no longer pristine. This and the trailer have paid for themselves over and over again in the 18 months.
  15. Not any more I changed them
  16. My Yeti gets used as a van more often than not. Rear seats out and MDF platform fitted. It takes but a few seconds to put the platform in once the seats are out. Pictures below
  17. When mine started this I changed all the rear cluster lamps. Problem went away.
  18. ^^This is what you need.^^ I have a sixth sense on when mine is near a regen and use VAG DPF to confirm it, If needed I just go for a drive until its finished. If you need to force a regen there is another app called Carista that allows you to do that.
  19. I have been running these for the last 3 years can't fault them. https://www.oponeo.co.uk/tyre/nexen-n-blue-4-season-225-50-r17-94-v#311746500
  20. For launching the boat I used my wife's Rav4, saved getting the Yeti anywhere near salt water
  21. Doesn't, matter to the tyres I mentioned as they have served me equally well in all the places I have lived ,snow in the Chiltern Hills, in floods in the Nene valley and finally in sunny Devon. An all round good tyre.
  22. Nexan N-blue 4 season https://www.oponeo.co.uk/tyre/nexen-n-blue-4-season-225-50-r17-94-v#305775502 Work well for me all year round. Great in the wet and dry, reasonable wear rate 30k miles. I will be buying them again when needed it will be my 3rd set on the Yeti.
  23. If DIY you will need VCDS or similar to run the pump, can't remember whether its to get the pump out or sort the oil level when its in. plus top up the oil once its done.
