Switch off, gentle turn on pushing and it releases the holding pins, gently pull out, nothing else to do apart from dismount the plug, just a pull as I recall!!

^ ^ ^ Well done that man!! ;-D

no could have been info by 'the plumber'

There was also a suggestion of placing the spare in a vertical position strapped to one side of the boot space, a scottish guy did that mod, again a long time ago, in fact I bought the strappings off him when he sold on the yeti

I vaguely recall, a long time ago there was a yeti for the Chinese market which had the spare mounted on the rear door externally. It might of course have been a mock-up!(or a c**k up)

What if the wheel is upside down, I can't remember the format?

What diameter pin? maybe a screw and nut might work, I am probably talking thro' my fesse though

You could say its possibly associated with Thatcher's view of society and the lack of need for community ---- just my bent and twisted view!

naw it is christmas!!! ;-))

80km/h?

Could be a thermocouple in the control system not working --- I had a similar sounding problem with my first Yeti, said piece replaced and no further problems. Good luck!!

Maybe a registered letter to the head of the UK operation as well!

+1 ^

I eventually had a chat here a la frog with an independant , ancient, VW specialist, he said it was the sensor and just to replace it, found one on ebay for about £30. replaced it and as they say that solved the problem, took about 10 mins in total! General view is that they should be good for about 80k-100k, mine failed at about 35-36k, No subsequent probs.

And here's me waiting to shout out AT LAST!!!

Another suggestion, drive short distances with the handbrake gently applied, it worked for me!

rear brake disc removal is a problem on the 4x4 because of the drive etc the others can be manipulated off

think it needs locking with a torque wrench NOW!!

should be fine, think it took about 2 hours on mine!

but was it an amundsen + or a later model?

Sorry Graham, that is not an option, you do need to buy the sd card update!!

V12 works fine with firmware 0407 -- I have an Adventure and recently carried out this map update!!

History repeating itself, behind the bike shed at playtime it is then, see you all there!!! :-()

are they all kaputt? try testing on the battery!

Have you tried rebooting it, I think fuse 8 in the box under the bonnet needs taking out for 5 mins , reinstall and try again ---- check the fuse number though as i'm not certain!!
