Hey, nice to hear from someone with experience. I had my last inspection 132456 km ago and unfortunately the warranty has not been valid since then. There were no major repairs before the problem and the last oil change was also part of this inspection. I haven't had any similar problems yet. I guess I should perhaps visit the garage and have the engine control unit checked, shouldn't I? I'm fine with the 1000 euros as long as the car runs again afterwards. Thanks for your tip!

Moin, exactly, I would definitely visit the garage if I were you. They can read out the fault memory and tell you exactly what's going on. It could really be the engine control unit, but it could also simply be that the lambda sensor is damaged and needs to be replaced. Both cases can cause similar symptoms. In the case of my Yeti, it was the control unit that messed up the entire engine. But I could have just been unlucky. Do you carry out regular inspections and maintenance? This can often detect and rectify such problems at an early stage. I hope this helps a little. Please keep us up to date!

Thanks for the tips. Yes, I try to carry out the inspections and maintenance regularly, but sometimes you do put it off. I will take the car to the garage and have the fault memory read out. Let's see if it's the engine control unit or the lambda sensor, which is what you suggested. I'll keep you up to date. Thanks again for the help!

Moin, experienced a similar problem myself with my 2016 Skoda Yeti and yes, I have a bit of experience with cars. It sounds like you have a problem with the engine control unit. That's how it was with my car. I then went to my trusted garage and the guys replaced my engine control unit. It cost about 1000 euros and my car ran like new afterwards! To help you more accurately, it would be good to know if there have been any previous repairs and how long it has been since the last oil change? And have you ever had similar problems with the car?
