Skoda Yeti Oil Burning and Oil Consumption Problem
The 1.8 TSI (EA888) engine of the Skoda Yeti (2009-2017, compact SUV) is known for the best-known chronic problem of VAG's EA888 family: excessive oil consumption. The cause is a design defect in the piston oil control rings: oil escapes past the cylinder wall into the combustion chamber and burns (this led to a class action in the USA). Consumption of 0.5-1 L per 1,000 km is typical, especially on 2008-2011 Gen1/Gen2 engines. VW revised the rings at the end of 2011.
Oil Burning Prevention Kit for the Skoda Yeti
- Skoda Yeti that consumes oil → 5 L Brava Extreme 9000 5W50 + A980 NanoComplex — a thicker film that noticeably reduces oil escaping past the rings and cuts consumption.
- No consumption / protection → 5 L Brava Extreme 9000 5W40 (VW 502.00 factory viscosity) + A980 NanoComplex.
The kit contains 5 litres (capacity ~4.6 L, with a reserve); that comfortably covers you until the first oil warning.
How Does A980 NanoComplex Reduce Oil Consumption?
It strengthens the oil film and reduces oil escaping past worn/thin rings, cuts oil passage into the combustion chamber and noticeably reduces consumption. It also keeps the oil feeding the turbo and chain area clean.
Which Motor Oil for the Skoda Yeti?
VAG TSI/TFSI engines require a fully synthetic oil approved to VW 502.00; the factory viscosity is 5W40 (504.00 5W30 for longlife servicing). If your car consumes oil, 5W50 is recommended (a thicker film); if it does not, 5W40. Both are offered in the kit as Brava Extreme 9000 fully synthetic.
Skoda Yeti Oil Capacity
- Engine: 1.8 TSI (EA888) — compact SUV
- Oil capacity: ~4.6 L (Gen1/2; with filter, may vary by engine code)
- Approval: VW 502.00 · Viscosity 5W40 (5W50 when consuming oil)
- Kit: 5 L Extreme 9000 + A980 NanoComplex 300 ml
Skoda Yeti Oil Burning Symptoms
- Blue/grey smoke from the exhaust (when lifting off and getting back on the throttle)
- Visible oil level drop every 1,000-1,500 km
- Oil level / warning light
- Oil fouling on the spark plugs and turbo inlet pipe
Other Common Problems of the Skoda Yeti
- Piston ring defect (the root cause): On Gen1/2 EA888 engines the oil control rings let oil past. The permanent fix is renewing the rings/pistons, which is a job for an authorised service centre (engine strip-down); the correct oil + A980 noticeably reduces consumption.
- PCV / crankcase ventilation valve: A faulty PCV increases oil consumption; it is a relatively affordable part to replace and can solve part of the consumption.
- Chain tensioner (Gen1/2): On early EA888 engines a chain tensioner fault can be heard — do not neglect the check (authorised service).
- Carbon build-up: Direct injection causes carbon to build up behind the valves; a clean fuel system and additives help.
Note: This kit targets the oil side of the Skoda Yeti (consumption control + protection); mechanical repair of rings or the chain is a job for an authorised service centre.
Complete Maintenance and Additive Recommendation for the Skoda Yeti
- Oil consumption & protection: This kit — Extreme 9000 (5W50/5W40) + A980 NanoComplex
- Fuel system & clean combustion: Brava S50 Fuel Additive
- Injector cleaning: Brava A700 Injector System Cleaner

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does the Skoda Yeti burn oil?
On Gen1/2 EA888 engines (2008-2011) the piston oil control rings let oil into the combustion chamber; VW revised the rings at the end of 2011.
Which oil does the Skoda Yeti use?
A fully synthetic oil approved to VW 502.00, factory fill 5W40 (504.00 5W30 for longlife). 5W50 if it consumes oil. The kit contains Brava Extreme 9000 (5W50/5W40) + A980.
What is the oil capacity of the Skoda Yeti?
Approximately 4.6 litres for Gen1/2 (with filter); the kit contains 5 litres (with a reserve).
How is oil burning reduced on the Skoda Yeti?
The permanent fix is renewing the piston rings (authorised service). Before that, 5W50 + A980 noticeably reduces consumption on most cars.
Will this kit completely end oil burning on the Skoda Yeti?
Unless there is severe piston ring damage it reduces consumption substantially; if the mechanical fault has progressed, service intervention is required.
