Skoda Yeti Transmission problem
Summary of the thread
A 2015 Skoda Yeti with a gasoline engine is experiencing transmission issues, including an engine warning light and emergency mode activation. The error memory indicates a transmission oil pressure sensor fault, accompanied by gearbox slips and grinding noises. The problem may be related to low gearbox oil levels, which can cause faulty readings from the pressure switch. Solutions include checking and topping off the transmission oil and replacing the faulty pressure switch, which resolved the issue in this case.

Thank you for the advice. Just to clarify, are you referring to the transmission pressure switch, or another transmission sensor? And did you experience similar symptoms with the gearbox slipping into emergency mode?

Yes, the transmission pressure switch was indeed the culprit. The symptoms you described, including the emergency mode, mirrored my experience precisely. While topping off the oil might temporarily alleviate the issue, it is highly advisable to consult a workshop to ascertain the root cause of the oil loss and to replace the faulty pressure switch.

Confirmed, replacing the transmission sensor and topping up the fluid for 365€ resolved the issue. Thanks for the advice.

I had similar transmission issues with my Skoda Yeti. It could be the oil level. Has the transmission oil level been checked? This often causes faulty readings from the pressure switch. If the oil level is insufficient, top it off to the specified level and then check if the transmission sensor error disappears.
