Yeti 1.2 DSG grip or lack of it

Featured Replies

I have a Yeti 1.2DSG It was delivered on 225/50/17 Pirelli P Zero Rosso tyres. Quite often the wheels will spin when trying to make a quick getaway at a roundabout. Traction control kicks in and after a quick rise in my blood pressure the car takes off again. I have just moved to a new house where the driveway exits on to a 1in 4 hill. The road surface is concrete. The Yeti loses grip as you exit and traction control brings you to a stop. After reversing down the hill and centering the wheels I can restart with traction control OFF and can make it to the top of the hill with occasional wheelspin. With traction control on it is impossible to get up the hill if the road surface is damp. Is the Yeti the problem or is it the tyres?

Hi and welcome aboard.

Go onto the Yeti section as someone there can help.

Welcome aboard. Never heard of this before but as a rule with any vehicle, the thing which grips the road is the tyre not the vehicle
