The YETI got STUCK, but so did the TOUAREG! Lake District Green Laning

After many off-roading adventures, the Yeti and V10 Touareg we're both in a little bit too deep this time at Graythwaite Adventure!

We want to see more of everything, more off-roading, more racing, more big builds, more cheap builds and more customers projects 🙌🏻🙌🏻💪🏻👊🏻

[@bradjepson7022]

It's good to have all sorts of content. Appeals to more people.

[@thefamilyrobbo]

Agree

[@GarryMcGovern]

While I would always, ALWAYS want a Touareg V10 over a Yeti, I can't help myself from always wanting the Yeti to outperform it!! 🤣🤣

[@marklloyd1737]

I think your content is a perfect mix and shows your diversity as a company. Plus it's great to see every one everyone getting involved. Its impossible to please everyone, so keeping it broad and varied is ace.

[@Guy_From_Himachal_]

Skoda YETI is the only reason why i watch ur channel/videos YETI is an EMOTION 💓💓

[@ajfc27]

I love the offroading/builds and customer builds and I'd happily watch several hours of either

[@ALL_4_WHEELS]

Absolutely brilliant video ryan and the crew!! That little yeti show up the big toureg in some places!! Brilliant content guys! Support you all the way!! 👌🏼👌🏼🤘much love from #westwaleslaners

[@LowBudgetMilitia]

Absolutely love all the content you lads put out, but the offroad stuff is my personal fav :D

[@dansargeant2087]

I must be honest I didn't think a Skoda yeti could do serious off-roading and this has just proved me wrong and I must say it sounds sick ,fair play guys 💪👍

[@LudwigsPrecision]

Love that Yeti :D content in general is sweet, I found you for the offroad/overland parts but I enjoy all of your vids, keep them coming.

[@tmill2001]

Another great off road video! Love the T regs but the Yeti is growing on me! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@waynedl99]

I love the Overland vids with the little Yeti and that awesome sounding V10... I enjoy all the different videos though. The best bit of your channel, there's something for everyone, and the titles tell you what it is, so it's not hard to not watch something you don't want to. I say, keep things as they are.

[@GAMERSW0RLD]

The more you do that you and your boys/ gals enjoy.. the more the viewers will enjoy watching it. Keep up the good work 🤙

[@marcuscrennell2071]

More vids like this, absolute quality

[@bigtone2005]

Off road vids and builds for me.. Do like some of the customer builds if they catch my eye. Good vid keep it going

[@lukeyj8745]

Off Roading good,car stuff great,customer cars good racing is not for me but other people will love it

[@alwinlx]

Hardcore off-roading... congrats

[@thefamilyrobbo]

People will always complain. Reading through the comments I'd suggest you're pretty close to the mark though. Personally I love all your content but I find the off road vids especially entertaining and the Yeti is pure gold. Great lads also. The characters and relationship make it human and amusing. Although Ryan and Scott are the employers, it looks like a bunch of workmates having a laugh. Great editing also as that adds to the natural feel. The only time I skip content is when a number of videos over a race weekend add up to about 3 hours. I do enjoy the racing though.

[@kingalan5000]

More off road in the beast Touareg

[@mathewleadbitter3975]

That yeti is really impressive

[@hyper8545]

They really are incredibly capable 👍🤙

[@patrickhurst8205]

Like it all but I'm starting to like the off road stuff too. Mighty impressed with the Yeti !!!

[@tonkajjz109]

Just keep doing the videos your doing lads cracking content 👌

[@ChatMotorsport]

was great to speak to you at Yorkshire Motorsport festival Ryan, I can't believe how much Abuse that Yeti takes!

[@DarksideDevelopments]

It loves it!

[@quicknickdriver8510]

What fun. I enjoy your variety of content, keep it coming

[@RichardStefanits]

Builds builds builds, customer car stuff ftw

[@RTC057]

I would say keep doing what you're doing, you can't appease everyone and they don't have to watch it. I don't like the off road as much but I have the choice to skip through, the prep and the development are the interesting things for me whatever the video prime content, how you drive, not so. What would be interesting is to see is the Amorak pickup with the mighty V and some nicely painted brake calipers 😂. Something is better than nothing which means I have to find something else if nothing 😔. Thanks

[@grittoutdoors]

Nice one lads! Looked an awesome place! When are we going halves on a forest somewhere?...

[@DarksideDevelopments]

Depending where it is, haha

[@nickrubberboot3673]

[@FrankBao]

Hi, I wonder if it is possible to fit 33’ tires on a t1 Touareg without any body trim?

[@DarksideDevelopments]

No, some trimming of the body has to be done and the intercoolers need to be moved/swapped to front mount. Got a video of us putting 33" on our v6 here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/poCYdp2jYradbtU

[@UnderdogOverlander]

nice video, shame i had work so couldnt join you all in my jeep

[@OMYAB_Adventures]

How does the yeti fair on the roads with its raised height and off road tyres?

[@DarksideDevelopments]

It's fine, definitely not a mk5 Golf but no worse than the Touaregs

[@logiclee1]

Really wonder how a DSG Yeti would do with the wet-clutch.

[@DarksideDevelopments]

That's what we think!

[@carlosorff]

Volkswagens and Rovers :)

[@James-my6ko]

The yeti got set up so it had to accept it's first tow out😂.

[@mistos3305]

How about yhe Yeti clutch, does it hold to the high demand or it smells?

[@DarksideDevelopments]

Smell is an understatement 😂 We killed a dual mass flywheel in a few thousand miles, We're trying a single mass conversion now.

[@mistos3305]

@@DarksideDevelopments I have single mass, and still overheat, and I have simmilar modifications with yours, except the 1.8 petrol engine. I also killed one and going for the second

[@ProMilkshake]

Is that coolant system repair kit thing something you put together or is it an off the shelf kit?

[@DarksideDevelopments]

We've just put it together, search '19mm' on our website and you see the joiners and hose we use. Don't forget the clamps too ;)

[@ayr4455]

Any plans to do more on the a6 BiTdi?

[@DarksideDevelopments]

We sold it!

[@ayr4455]

@@DarksideDevelopments shame. Front locker fitted in the v10 yet? A build series like the silver a5 would be killer. Each episode was eagerly anticipated as Project BINKY.

[@DarksideDevelopments]

No locker yet, using things rather than building while we can!

[@SteveSWC]

Does the Yeti get a new clutch after every outing? 😳🤣👍🏼

[@DarksideDevelopments]

Surprisingly not, no 😂

[@BarbecuedPossum]

Not seen the whole vid but the first hole how does the older gen tourag have better tc than the new one 😂

[@DarksideDevelopments]

Low range helps it move in the first place

Customer cars you say…. I’ve a mini F55 SD if you fancy repeating yourselves 🤦‍♂️🤣

[@luigiluigi9568]

[@DarksideDevelopments]

We thought about it! No low range though

[@34REDCOW34]

Would be possible to retrofit I'd say

So basically no yeti while off road. Noted

It's weird to watch this video now. you're laughing at Gav? Or laughing with Gav?

With him, he got coolant in his eyes on purpose

[@avg89able]

The T3 was a disappointment.

[@DarksideDevelopments]

T2, yes it was

[@napraznicul]

no matter capabilities of a car if got no proper driver. Last touareg.

[@GarryMcGovern]

The ONLY issue I have with this video, is that it is too long: very difficult to try find an entire hour to watch a KZbin video. However, split it in to two - then I'll be happy to watch both over consecutive days/sessions. The extra bonus for you guys, is then you get two videos to double any ad revenue! 😜

[@DarksideDevelopments]

We don't do this for ad revenue! I think splitting them up works sometimes but this video was only one evening into another afternoon.

[@thefamilyrobbo]

There's a pause button. You can split it however you want. Sorted 😊👍

[@pete.i7057]

I love the engineering, but sometimes guys, you are an embarrassment off-road (just cos Clarkson was all power and no finesse doesnt make it right).

[@DarksideDevelopments]

You are more than welcome to show us the alternative way on our next trip. The off road centre was happy for us to be a bit silly so why not?
