Like many other Skoda owners, I've noticed that my Yeti 1.8TSI consumes far more oil than a modern car should. It has been pointed out on various internet forums that this appears to be a result of faulty design of piston rings.
I'm considering suing Skoda UK for the cost of repairs to my Yeti, that I've been told may need a new engine due to oil consumption of over 1.2 litres every 600 miles. If you own an oil burner, would you consider joining in the suit? If so, just reply yes to this thread and I'll put together a list of potential litigants.
In the USA, you can sue companies, and Audi owners have successfully claimed compensation

If we can put together a list of Skoda owners who have been affected by this problem, it gives a greater chance that Skoda UK will cover the cost of engine repairs when they see how widespread the problem is
