Skoda Yeti System Readiness Issue

Alright, Skoda gurus, I'm pulling my hair out! My 2016 Skoda Yeti diesel is throwing a 'System readiness check incomplete' error. The error is stored in the error memory and I get a message in the speedometer. The only thing I did was read out the car with some car diagnostics tool (OBD2). What gives?

Whoa, sounds familiar! Had the exact same thing happen with my old Opel Astra after I used an OBD2 scanner. System readiness not complete, check engine light blazing. Was your car going for an emissions test soon? Because that's what triggered my panic! Could be the OBD2 reset some flags. Have you tried driving it for a bit? Sometimes the system needs to run its checks again.

Emissions test is coming up, yeah! You think just driving it will do the trick? How long did you have to drive your Astra before it sorted itself out?

Yep, driving should do it. For me, it took maybe a week of normal driving. Just make sure you're doing a mix of city and highway. If it doesn't clear after a week or so, then maybe consider visiting a workshop. They might have to manually reset something. But honestly, just drive it and see what happens!

Just wanted to say thanks for the help! Turns out it was exactly what you said. The system readiness was not completely set after the car diagnostics. After some driving, the check engine light turned off and the system readiness check is complete. No cost at all!
