A 2wd Diesel Yeti?

[VRSx3dave]

Hi Yeti people

I'm tempted to return to the Yeti fold from my current Octavia 2.0 TDI.  I previously had a Greenline Yeti which was great.

I would go for a 2wd Diesel again - currently only the 110bhp 2litre engine (in UK).  But what specification would I actually get?

With this engine currently under investigation by VAG - what might the result be?  Different bhp, torque, fuel economy, emissions - even a different engine.

Any insider info out there?

The current 110 diesel is now a different engine, and like all the others is Euro 6 compliant ,so not affected by the VW fiasco.

vw  repair for most engines is going to be a software update, others will be a tube in the air inlet to shape the air flow before the air mass meter & a software update.

forgot to say  euro 5 engines only euro 6 are ok no mods needed.

Hi all

 

VAG lists one 2016 year Yeti under investigation:

 

"Skoda Yeti                      R4 2,0l  81kW(110PS) 250Nm 4V TDI CR                        MQ350-6A"   

 

That's what started me off on this topic.  No I don't know which model this is - perhaps 4wd?

Interesting to know the outcome of this because I have a 2.0 diesel 110 se coming hopefully this January..Stepping up from a citigo

[speedybenny]

I think vrsx3dave is thinking of the c.o. problem that has one yeti 2ltr crd 4x4 in the list but all new diesel euro 6 engines are ok for the nox problems.

Isn't it the situation that if you can get a new one it's not effected?.

Hi again

 

SUK website in a bit of a mess at moment - brochure downloads don't work - statement below throughout site:

 

Our CO2 and consumption values are provisional and are currently under review. Revised values will be published if necessary

 

I was after a 110bhp SE Business - table describes it as a 4wd but with the 2wd figures - perhaps all VAG marques are in this much confusion at present - OK i'll wait.

Yes, the MQ350-6A is the 6 speed gear-box which is used in the 4x4.

Hi again

 

More research.

Everywhere except SUK seems to offer a 2WD 150bhp TDI EU6 (6 gears) YETI - but strangely not a Outdoor version.

Typical figures - 199 kph 9.0 0-100kph  combined 4.8 fuel consumption emissions 126 (.

About a £1000 more than the 110bhp version.

 

Now that's what I want!

 

What's the chance of a UK version?

I think my 110BHP FWD 5-speed is great but a 150BHP 6-speed would have been even better and I would have had one if it was available.

 

But I suppose Skoda UK deemed that it would hurt sales of the more expensive 4x4.

Out on the sunburnt plains there has been a trend to the FWD version for the lower weight and better economy plus less servicing and initial cost.

FWD for most does an excellent job even in difficult circumstances.

[Ryeman]

The FWD Ambition MY16 - 92(125ps)TSI 7 DSG is being sold out here for $A29,990 (£14,335) OR till the end of Dec

A lot for a little.

You'd be hard pressed to save money using a diesel, at that rate .......with diesel ~10% cheaper than 95pulp also.

Hi

 

My research was on the French and Swiss websites - one good special edition offer was called "Swiss Joy" at 30290 euros with lots of goodies!
