Hi there, the front and rear washer on my Yeti have stopped working. Yes, there is plenty of water in the tank and I have checked the fuses are OK. The motor does not make a wirring sound. Anyone had this happen before? Could it be a loose wire and if so where might it be?? Thanks Chris

That's really interesting! My Yeti has two all-season tyres on the front and summer tyres on the rear. Not driven it in the snow, due to lock down. Just as well by the looks of things!! Chris

I had a similar problem, caused by water ingress into the Sharkfin unit. I have installed a windscreen DAB antenna like this https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01MY2JE6C Absolutely brilliant reception and easy to install. It requires a small amount of the primer paint on the interior of the A Pillar to be scraped away, to get a good ground. Very pleased with the result. Good luck.

Heated rear screen interfering with DAB

You only have to scrape the primer off the A pillar behind the interior trim! No metalic paint gets hurt in the process!!- 6 replies

I was having DAB reception problems on my Yeti. In the end I installed a 3rd party windscreen antenna and the reception has been amazing! Really pleased. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01MY2JE6C/ Very easy to install, just need to scrape a little piant off the A pillar to get a good ground.- 6 replies

My 2016 Amundsen unit is now getting very poor DAB reception. I don't have any USB cables or phone chargers installed to create electrical noise and we are in a good signal area for DAB, so my working assumption is the roof Sharkfin unit has the dreaded water damage. Does anyone have expereince of replacing it or getting a dealer to do so? Keen to understand what the cost might be. All help welcome. Thanks

Thanks all, Maxidot fixed it a treat! Need to find something else to get annoyed about now! Chris

I am loving the Yeti, but there is one thing that is REALLY annoying me....I want the unlock button on the key fob to unlock all the doors and the tailgate, not just the driver's door. Is this something I can adjust easily?? Thanks Chris

Glad to be of service

As someone who bought is first DAB car radio for over £700 in 1998, when most stations consisted of bird song, every new car I have bought has brought me the issue of how to add a digital receiver and what type of aerial to install! I was amazed to discover that after a 1000 miles of cross-UK Yeti driving that simply plugging my personal DAB radio, a Pure 2500, via a 0.5 metre 3.5mm to 3.5mm cable into the Aux socket works perfectly! I put the DAB radio in the tray just in front of the gear lever, so the cable to the Aux socket is fairly straight. The cable acts as an aerial and apart from a 2 second stretch of the A34 and a car park in Basingstoke the unit has provided crystal clear reception! I am sure there are some areas of poorer reception where this solution may not be as good as a dedicated roof mounted aerial, but right now I for one will be carrying on using this method of accessing DAB stations.

Ok, thanks, didn't want those features anyway :think:

Hi all, according to the manual, the Yeti Bolero should have an 'EQ' and 'Surround' function in the audio settings. No matter what I try to do, I just can't find them..they are not where the manual says they are...any thoughts?? Chris

Has anyone tried these? Seem like very good value?? Chris (3 sleeps to go)
