Here we have for sale my Polo that I have owned for over 6 years. It has 4 Months MOT ( April 19th 2019 ) In the time I have had her I have replaced the following Waterpump & Cambelt Front Suspension springs and top mounts Exhaust Back box Battery The millage is currently at 114,000 miles however may increase slightly as its still in use. The bodywork and interior are in great condition with no scratches, rust or tears. Unfortunately she does have 2 slight issues, the first is a intermittent issue with the airbag light, my mechanic says it may be the "squib" a part between the steering wheel and dashboard. The other is that the central locking fob was lost prior to my ownership, You still have central locking by putting the key in the door, however you must put the key in the ignition within 30 seconds of opening the door to prevent the alarm going off. She has been an excellent runner, but I have purchased an upgrade so it's time to let her go to a new home. Please feel free to contact me with any questions. Less£500.00

Quality front wheel bearings needed for 6N.
Polo3 posted a topic in Wheels, Tyres, Suspension and Brakes
I bought a cheap wheel bearing from a seller on EBay, for £13.95 . I fitted it into the hub this afternoon and it is nearly as noisy and has nearly as much play as the old, very knackered and very noisy one that I was replacing. Please could I have some advice on the best quality bearings to get for my 6N. I seem to get a noisy front bearing, usually once every year or so, so I'd like to get the absolute best quality possible, without paying through the nose. Suggestions gratefully received. -
I've managed to fit a mk1 Audi TT wheel in my Arosa and thought I'd share the photo's as the Arosa shares the 6N parts. I had to drill some holes, do a bit of filing and 3D print a bit. Just need to get an airbag to finish it. Much nicer feel.

Hi, i have lowered my VW Polo 6n and seem to be getting positive camber in the front only on one side though... so basically instead of the wheel sitting out it’s pointing inwards! Very strange I think the previous owner has used washers on the rear... does anyone have a clue how I can resolve this? I don’t mind using washers if I have to! Just want to stop it driving odd and feel like I’m driving on my outer sidewall! Any helo would be grand!

this black hose from the cannister must be made from some special kind of rubber ? it keeps dirtying the rag everytime I try to wipe it down. as if rubbers coming off it all time. is this how it's supposed to be or do I replace it. has the fuel vapours breaking it up?

6N AFH. Don't think these spacers were not on when removing the driveshafts unless the were disguised in grease. Part no 3 on diagram Are they even necessary? I'm renewing the bolts. 12 oem's for £20.

Hi guys, i have a polo 6n what I’m looking at updating the front end. I have a Full 6n2 front end ready to go on! Just seeing if there is much too it I know the wings are shorter but the bumper comes around more on the 6n2 just seeing if anyone has done it and if you have to move or mess around with the rads or the front smash bar! Cheers

Hey everyone, My name is Marcos and I'm from Madeira Island, Portugal. I currently own two cars, one of them is a VW Polo 6N 1.4 8v Open Air which was my first car, and the other is a VW Golf VII 2.0 TDI Highline which is right now my daily driver. I knew this forum for quite some time, back when I got some nasty problems with my Polo and tried to search for a solution on the internet and I discovered clubpolo.co.uk by accident. Now with all the mechanical problems fixed, I decided to retribute the help that I got and decided to take part in this active community and sharing my knowledge. Cheers !

Hey guys, So here is my VW Polo 6N 1.4 8v Open Air with 60 hp from November 1996. The car recently have been painted and the engine all rebuilt, the car is pretty much brand new ! Now I'm focusing in the interior, specially the roof. I have leak on the sunroof that is driving me mad ! I've been trying to fix it for the last 4 years... I hope you guys appreciate the car as much as I do ! Cheers !

After years of wanting one and a year of looking for one I've finally got one!! It's got high mileage, 165,000, but the engine runs nice and smooth. It's a bit tatty around the edges but it's probably the best condition polo I've bought yet - saying that's probably going to come back and bite me. Well we did a 2 hour drive to go and pick it up and me and my dad couldn't smile wide enough! There's a bit of rust on the arches, very minor, and minor rust on a few panels. When we got it home I went to open the door and the door handle came off - was no screw holding it in. The speakers don't work, simple wiring job. But the wheels are feking amazing condition! Don't even look like they've been refurbed just really clean! The plans for this year: *Fix door handle - probably do that tomorrow weather permitting *Fix speakers - tomorrow *Cambelt, oil change - general stuff when you buy a car. *Gradually get each panel sorted, can do panel by panel as colour match isn't vital as long as it's near enough. *But some 16v seats to steal the foam out of as the foam in the current seats has long gone - no tears though, well a tiny one. *Machine polish it. Only got one photo at the moment was to excited to take photos! Polished the wing and bumper and they came up nicely. The colours are really vibrant in person! Should be going to ultimate dubs next sunday in it.

On a snowy day back in 2009 I managed to crash my wifes 6N into a raised bus stop curb, as you can imagine the results were impressive. Passenger side wheel at 45 degrees to the drivers and the steering wheel was upside down, we scrapped the car as a result. This wasn't a rash decision, lots of advisories on the previous MOT....oh and it was Cat C'ed a couple of years earlier when we were in a 4 car shunt in standing traffic. Boot lip pushed in 3 - 4 inches and front serverely deformed....we patched it up for £20 and kept driving! Car was brought for £1500 and we got £1100 payout, plus sold some parts....not bad for a car we had owned for 4 years at the time with 100k on the clock. So we ended up getting a sensible car, an 06 Honda Accord diesel...was the sport edition! And while we drove that around I picked up this.... And turned it into this...(Build thread here) At the start of the month I decided that the car had cost more than enough and that I should probably think about replacing my wifes Polo 6 years later.....especially since Mini parts are so expensive and you can still find a Polo at a scrap yard! In the 5 years I owned the car it had been driven 1500 miles and cost me half a years salary, which is a sobering thought as I am far from being on minimum wage. For the grand total of £200 I brought a 149k mile 1997 R reg 999cc Polo L Currently I am stripping down the car, seeing what work needs doing and parts i need to source So far it needs... Both rear arches repaired New rear valance underseal stripping off, rusty treating and reapplying Various rust patches repairing A full respray replacement carpets and retrimmed front seats Engine reconditioning (probably gearbox too) And probably a whole host of other things....but its a project. My plan is to keep the car pretty much standard, yes there will be a few modifications and fancys details added to the car along the way. I am a man I like shiny things and power, but at a glance i want it to appear standard. I will add photos and updates as I make progress.....which will be slow as I work away from home. I am giving myself a year to get it MOT'ed.

I am trying to undo the dogbone mount bolt but it is not budging. 16 spanner on both and I am turning the nut anti clockwise? Is this right direction, because I feel if I try any hard I am going to round the bolt.

In the engine bay back wall there is a carpet material. Is this just for sound proofing or something more? Can I strip it out?
