Building an OVERLAND Skoda Yeti 4x4?
Рет қаралды 145,460
Күн бұрынWhat started off as a joke in the office soon became a reality when this cheap Skoda Yeti 4x4 came up for sale on Facebook.
With the Touareg's holding their own in the 4x4 world, we were interested to see how the Yeti would compare...
We're not expecting this to be the new Defender but can it tackle the UK green lanes?

We've had a Yeti since they were released in Australia. It's prob not saying much, but it is the best built car we've owned, and it's stayed together better than a lot of other Euros around of similar or younger vintage. I know it's just a Tiguan with a different 'cab'. But it's great. Unique. A face only its mother could love. Can't wait to see how this build goes. Keep the vids coming.

Same mate. I have a 2012 TDI 4x4. Skoda Australia marketed it as 103kW, but when I did a VIN search, mine has the 125kW tune from factory. Same power and torque as the Audi Q3. I don't think many Yeti owners know this, i've always said it has more power and torque since I bought it new. It now has 160k km and I love it to bits. I'm on my second Amarok now - and in comparison the Yeti is the best car i've owned. Solid AF, economical to run and does everything it is built to do. Very underrated small-mid SUV.

@@michaelb6729 I wish this was the case mate, but the 125 engine has a lot more than a "tune" as difference. The 103 turbo is a tiny kkk compared to the Garrett the 125 has, I went from a 125kw mkV GT TDI to the 2014 103 Yeti, and it was obviously slower, even tuned, ( I used to sell tunes ). I've maxed out my 103 turbo now with every mod known to man, and have the Yeti down to just over 5 seconds to 100, and have a nice Q5 turbo to bolt on soon, but sorry to rain on your parade, the true 125 is different in a number of ways, even has a forged crank! I WISH I had the 125 as a base engine......

Sticks to road, secure feel great control. Never needed to carry big load, so fit for my purpose. Just wish I could find a replacement now the yeti is ten years old.

Interesting idea and probably a case of what could have been if VW had done a special edition of the yeti. I'd ditch the spacers though and just get a wheel with the right offset that fits. Bearings won't know any different but you'll eliminate an unnecessary set of bolted joints and an interface that could be a source of embedment.

I've had Yeti, but I had to sell it after a year for unconnected reasons, and this car is the best thing I've had. But the road clearance is the only thing that could be better and that doesn't allow for "serious" offroading. So the answer for that should be both bigger tires AND spacers. At least, this is what I was going to do. Also (this won't be useful for anyone except the ones who wants to do that): if you're doing a serious lift, rear struts could be a problem, but there's an easy solution - Tiguan's struts are couple cm's longer, so you'll be more flexible with the spacers. Or use some custom ones, but this is a different price range usually, and I was going to do a cheap little change that would make me scratch my belly less on the forest roads.

I purchased a 2013 4x4 140bhp diesel , I have to say it’s one of the most reliable and easy to drive cars I’ve owned throughout the years the gearbox just flows into gear ( manual) plenty of grunt and good on fuel even though I’m heavy footed , i can well believe it will do 50 miles to the gallon but it doesn’t with me behind the wheel more like 40-45 which is plenty , highly recommended as a commute vehicle plus lay the seats and it’s my work van …. great little motors ( diesel only not Petrol in my opinion ) 👍😎

Hallo guys! I have a 2008 Tiguan TDI. I lifted it with some Eibach +3cm and it ofroads great! Just the ride isn't perfect. A lot of small vibrations like the road surface is uneven. I saw that you've applied extensions to the dampers. I believe my ride issue is due to over extended dampers (shock absorbers) would the extensions solve it and do you sell those? Cheers! (I wish you guys had a workshop in continental Europe. I would build my Tiguan in your shop!!!! )

Hello from Greece! I subscribed to your channel and I think I did it right! I own a Skoda Yeti 1.8tsi 4x4 2009 and I found the project you did very interesting! I would like to know what was the cost of the modification and if it is worth doing something like that? Thank you very much for your time and congratulations for the work you do !!! 👍👍👍

Removing emission controls is illegal, unless using for off road. Blanking the EGR should not be done unless you are deleting the DPF as well, otherwise it will eventually block. Additionally they will need mapping out Email us if you want further information.

Cosmetic changes. As long as he looks good. I wonder how the service of such an improvement looks like later. The best part was restoring the metal rims. They weren't straightened or anything. Smudge in paint and it's ready. Underbody protection is not improved. It is an off-road car that will drive around the city. I've seen some funny projects like this before. They would at least paint it with raptor paint for scratches and here only wax to make it shine. A city car with off-road tires, a roof rack and glossy paint. The only thing that increases is the fuel consumption.

@@DarksideDevelopments I watched this video material. You can see that the terrain is suited to this Yeti. Not too wet, not too muddy, no sand. You can see that the car has problems with larger rock breaks. Scrubs the bumper and undercarriage. It can handle light terrain and it would be the perfect car for a doctor who travels to patients. However, please do not call it an off-road vehicle. The lack of snorkel suggests that it cannot cope with deeper water. Under normal conditions, the car would be driven for a long time, but it is a self-supporting body and will not withstand such exploitation for a long time. You can customize this car with various modifications, but you will still strive for an off-road car that is built on the frame. It will be cheaper to buy a Nissan Patrol or a Suzuki Samurai, Jimny and have a better effect for less money. Let me just mention the stupid chuckles of the Skoda gentlemen during the conversation with the old man with the dog. You may not have broken the law, gentlemen, but you have entered the place where these people live and use this place. It is disrespectful to the locals. His reaction suggests that he has already had bad experiences with people like you. You went to the vicinity of human settlements, not to the wilderness, and you call it off-road driving. The car of the Audi Allroad class. Just looking good.
