Skoda Yeti 4x4 - Prep for Wales! ARB Removal / Tank Guards / Lightbar / Haldex Service
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
After hearing plenty of stories about the green lanes in Wales, we though it would be a good idea to carry out a bit of preparation work on the Yeti before hand to save any potential disasters whilst there!
Seeing as this video goes our after our trip, its safe to say the tank guards and ARB removal were definitely worth doing!!!

Loved the righty tighty lefty loosey talks around 26mins 😂😂🤦🏻♂️ always enjoy your guys content! They’re a good bunch of lads! 👍🏼
Rob's face when it hits the hard cut is a picture 😂 We have to say, we at 4WD UK are so impressed with the little Yeti, It's a absolute beast 🤙🏻 Ryan's driving on the other hand... 😏😂 But you'll all have to wait for the video of the day to see what we mean 😅

Haha!
I feel so much more relaxed when I watch these repairs and mods. I’ll make sure that Ali, my mechanic at the Skoda dealership, watches these before service next week. Thank goodness I’m not going to stony country this trip. Over to the Darling River with clay floodplain and sandy scrub. Love the light. Thanks gentlemen.
Nothing but pure professionalism in this video! 👌👌👌👌🤣🤣🤣🤣

Quite the opposite for sure, luckily these are not our mechanics!
The "Battery" box is a R32 Battery box with Skoda partsnumber, the shallow box is only on front wheel drive yetis, there is a cover plate that could be used with nothing sticking down from the floor. ( Planning and agm battery in that location myself )
That battery box you fittted is for tsi fwd petrols with full size backbox. Love that the boot trim nearly defeated you hahaha the tailgate trims are worse. Ive never ran the haldex to get filters out just a 13mm bolt into the black part and pliers on the white cap.

Normally have removal toe bar ball tyre foam and compressor
So that's what that black box under the rear bumper is ! I had no idea what it was. Could be a good hiding place for contraband ! . . . #simpleclever !
From France 🇫🇷 Belle vidéo 👌 😉. Beau travail ⚒ 😉. Respect 👍
Everytime I see a yeti video I scream Haldex controller !! 🤣🤣🤣
Didn't know about the smaller rear tub, would have made a custom exhaust setup a lot easier! I never use the deep tub.....nice work yet again lads.
Great content lads. Love the vw stuff
Nice work 🤙
I've got a 4x4 2litre diesel Yeti, really like what you have done with the roof cage and light bar. Thinking it might be on my next shopping list, along with the tow bar I want, however can't decide which type. I can change the tyres to off roaders, I all you have to do is update the on board computer that changes the set up. It is by far the best car I have ever had.

You should remove the fuel tank from underneath and move to a fuel cell in the boot 🙂👍
Surprised you didn’t remove the Haldex pump. I’ve always found the screen filter to be clogged with gunk on them.
the tightning torgue for the oil prop is 30 Nm🤦♂️ bye bye good threads😅

I'm gonna assume you hadn't got the engine stinking hot when you drained the oil and it happened to all go into the pan without issue. Try it when the engine's hot and its go everywhere!!!

Exactly!
Unless there's another video covering it, it'd have been nice to be more detailed on the Haldex service. Love this Yeti, it's a cracking bit of kit. When you took it to Wales on the trailer, was this just to save a few quid in fuel / tyres, or because it drives scary without the ARBs?

A bit of both, 60 is a good speed for this, Touareg can do 70 and return same MPG plus having the trailer there means you can tow something back if it's dead!
