1.2TSI spark plugs, comments?
Strange that the 2 with corrosion have been running much weaker than the other 2. Did you replace them with iridium plugs?

Steering wheel controls- audio side not working
If it was working it's probably a failed clockspring.

Infotainment System.
The it is not a DAB unit. DAB was an extra on all Yeti's, I paid extra when speccing the build of the car.

Map update STD_1510_E_U1_202122. Query
I think his problem is in previous updates it asked where to unzip and formated the card. Now it is only downloaded and has to be unzipped to the SD card after it has been formatted to clear it.

Map update STD_1510_E_U1_202122. Query
The only way I can see that happening is if the card was not formatted first Edit: I take it you have not unpacked the zip file first and are trying to copy the zip file to the card as langers2k has posted.

Map update STD_1510_E_U1_202122. Query
Do you really need all those countries? ECE 1 ECE 5 or ECE 6 depending on your needs will fit on your card and covers most nearby countries

Spruce up black bumpers etc
Was recommended Polytrol after being unhappy with all "Back to Black" products. It's magic, brush or wipe on and wipe off after it starts to go off. I have used nothing better, it's expensive but a 100ml sample pot will only cost £6 and it'll do the bumpers at least twice. https://www.owatroldirect.co.uk/product/polytrol/

Bolero radio problem
I thought it was only DAB equipped Bolero and Amundsen infotainment units that used the heated rear window aerial.

Clock spring
the letters at the end changing are usually updated parts or different manufacturing method but as long as the number is the same should be compatible.

New Yeti Owner ... couple of questions on lighting ...
The younger generation do not seem to see that fog lights are low to shine under the fog instead of headlights just causing a white out. I'm sure that most people treat fog lights as posing lights.

Timing Belt replacement
Very bad I'd say, if anything went wrong the garage and parts manufacturer could just keep bouncing yourself between one and the other.

New Yeti Owner ... couple of questions on lighting ...
If they dazzle other drivers they are damaged/adjusted wrong. The idea several years ago of all cars fitted with dim/dip was to stop people driving on sidelights, there are no conditions for safely driving on sidelights.

Car wouldn't move!!!
I had problems drying out the discs as as soon as you applied the footbrake it cut the throttle and that's enough to be scary so I phoned Skoda and they did not have a clue what I was talking about. But I found that if the footbrake is applied first the throttle can then be applied to balance the brake and the brake can then be applied more firmly against the throttle.

Car wouldn't move!!!
Find an empty stretch of road apply the handbrake gently balancing with the throttle for about 100 yards to see if that improves things. If it is still noticeable get up to the same speed and gear then release throttle then gently apply footbrake before applying throttle to balance the brake, it should clear them up pretty quick. If you apply the footbrake before releasing throttle the car will think you are trying to stop and reduce power to nearly nothing and and will brake leading to not clearing disks and pads. It's the same as drying brakes after going thru water.

What is the plastic/clear panel above the rear light assembly called - how do I order replacement
This is for 2015, probably the same for all here. It's part 30 in the parts diagram below, called "D Pillar Trim). https://skoda.7zap.com/en/cz/yeti/yet/2015-779/8/853-853000/
