    Yeti coolant leak

    Fired up the yeti today and had a warning light on the dash indicating a low coolant levels. Checked it and the bottle was nearly empty. Wife reminded me that this happened just 2 months ago too and had RACQ top it up for her. Had some coolant in the garage so I topped it up and had a look on the floor and noticed a small pool of coolant fluid. Looks like the yeti has it's first issue but will get it checked into skoda sometime next week and will update on the progress. Seems to be a mild leak as it's taken 2 months to show from the last fill.

    Sorry to hear about the leak. If its been happening over a few months hopefully there'll be a telltale trail on the block.

    Was just told there were no signs of external damage so they'd change it since it was covered by warranty. Will ask about the specific details when I pick up the car tomorrow
