Hi, I’m putting a remote locking kit into my 9n, I’ve been looking around for the wiring diagram to find out which cables from the passenger door I need to wire to my kit but I can’t find it any where, I have found it for the drivers door but I would rather do it on the passenger side, any advice will be appreciated

Just upgraded to my next Polo. Wanted a quicker one which I has more scope for mods so I bought this without even going to see it. Only has 46k miles on and has the bulletproof 1.9tdi PD engine. This one also is my favourite colour. I get my licence back in September ( I lost it for medical reasons) but in the meantime I have done some subtle mods which I will continue to do until I can start going all out with engine tuning, new brakes etc (insurance companies won't allow me to do so yet). So so far I have added: Montreal 2 alloys Few stickers Sony stereo New interior lighting Number plate lights New heater control knobs 9n3 GTI gear stick I have also just purchased a 9n3 GTI steering wheel, it sounds strange putting Gti trim into a diesel but I like the OEM style of things. I can easy remove the Gti badge and replace with a blank badge. Will be more photos to come and any feedback would be much appreciated.

Hey guys, Im in the process of installing the RCN210 head unit, and i've got the unit working aside from the switched live and the illumination. On the quadlock there is two 12v wires, a ground, and the CAN high and low cables, but there is also a wire (red with black stripe) that on the RCD200 unit diagram is unlabelled. Anyone know what it is? It seems to be a 12v switched wire, but in my Haynes manual there is no reference to it, and can't find anything else online. I plan on taking the illumination wire for the cig lighter/ accessory socket and splicing that for the head unit illumination. For the switched 12v can I use the 12v for that too if I shouldn't use the mysterious red and black one from the quadlock, or is there an easier to access wire I can use instead of that that doesn't involve taking the centre console out? Thanks

Have had a few issues on this car now down to the last for now, getting and error on VCDS 17591 Linear O2 Sensor; Reference Voltage Short to Plus, was intermittent but now the error without. Swapped for new NGK o2 sensor and 20 miles later light is back on and same error but with intermittent again now. What do you think - iffy connector or wiring from connector back to ECU or something else? Getting bored now! 2006 1.4 BKY SE

HELP !! Polo 9n GT tdi 130pd BLT engine 2005 I need to know what egr is needed for this engine and if it’s the one that has the anti shudder valve as I have this plug hanging around and now engine management light on and has been mapped out and that but you can’t map the eml out ... Ps it has a egr delete It I think it’s the wrong one as I think it should have the asv attracted as that’s what the cable is for...... when I did the delete that plug was never plugged in and there was no asv there either

Hi Everyone, this is is my first post on here 👋 I bought a 9n for a steal and just want to smarten it up. Want to lower it by 50mm on springs any thoughts?? Cheers Brendan

hello i have a question about gearbox oil leak on a 1.4 tdi polo 9n. Oil is not leaking massively but i can see small drop of oil sitting on bolt where VW logo is. Picture attached. This VW plate is held by 2 bolts. I think it is leaking from the plate and siting on the bolt as thats where gearbox is wet. Is it possible to remove this vw plate, resealing it without moving any internal parts or is this plate holding something internally? Thank you.

hi can anyone advise me on replacing a bme engine, the only bme engine i can get hold of is the newer one without the egr valve, the engine in the car has an egr, will there be any issues with the ecu running the engine without the egr?

Hi new to this site, I have a 2004 1.4 9n, having issues with the emmisions replaced cat and done a full service, still no joy. Been told to replace temperature sensor, but been given a choice of two, the one on the housing is black 2 pin, is there another one somewhere (4pin) need to change the one that sends info to ECU. Cheers.

Evening all, ive got a problem with the wipers on my 2002 9N polo. It’s been going on for a while now but when the weather clears for a while I forget about it. Ive got an issue with the wipers, most notably the intermittent wipers. They’ll work when I turn on the car and put the wipers on, but they might only do a few wipes then just stop wiping. I can sometimes get round it by pushing them all the way up to the fastest setting, then all the way down and holding the stalk down to get the wipers to work. I normally have to try this 4-5 times until it works. If I let go of the stalk when it’s all the way down, before they’ve completed 2 swipes, they’ll just stop where they are and not park. It doesnt happen all the time, just typically when the rain is the worst! They’ve stopped working at least 5 times on the 40 minute journey home from work today. I went through all the relays and turns out there’s no relay for the wipers, and a bit of googling tells me it’s all done by the central computer or something? The only way I can get them to work is by having them on the constant setting, if I leave on intermittent they’ll stop working. But not all the time! It’s doing my head in. Any pointers? I can hear the click that the wipers make when on intermittent but they just don’t move. Likely to be a stalk issue, a motor issue or what? Thanks in advance for your help. Cheers, Alex.

Looking at replacing the seats in my VW Polo MK4 (2003) 1.4L 16V. Currently looking at a trading website local to my country (New Zealand). I came across a seller who sells parts exclusively from VW's going to wreckage due to them being too expensive to repair. There are a lot of other listings by him and other reputable europarts sellers and I was curious at to whether or not the seats from a GTI Mk5 Golf would be compatible with my Polo Mk4. I'm not sure if the car is too new a generation to be compatible with my car and I believe the seats would also be heated so would that be supported in my car? I'm not so worried if they wouldn't work in my car, I'm just more into having nicer seats in my 9n. Also if I may add, up to what generation would seats be compatible for my Polo? If you know, much appreciated !

Hi, I fitted my cruise control to my 9n3 TDI over the weekend. I looked around for a guide but was unable to find a complete guide that was written in English, so i thought of writing this one. Remember cruise control can only be fitted if the control units serial number starts with 6Q0 or 6Q1. This is in the drivers foot-well in the right if you want to check. The stalk & wiring loom can be brought from here. With MFD or Without MFD. There products can also be found on this website electritech.co.uk Firstly i had to remove the dashboard. This is because one of the plugs you need to add a pin too is plugged into the bulkhead. Others have said that they have managed to do this with extra long nose pliers. Others have suggested wiring it straight into the ECU. If you need help removing the dash a guide can be found here http://www.pimpowski.de/armaturenbrett_aus...n_pimpowski.htm The guide is in German but you can get a good idea by just translating the text & looking at the pictures. After you have removed the dashboard the car will look something like this The next step is to insert the pin into the plug on the bulkhead. This plug can be found where the arrow is pointing too on the picture above. When you have located the the plug you will need the pull the metal slide out to release the plug. Once you have pulled this out you will need to push down the clip and pull the plug out. Once you have removed the plug you need to put the pin in. The pin on the wiring loom is the long one that is on its own. This needs to be put onto pin 10. That pin is the pin on the picture above with the grey wire in that is pulled the other way. To get the pin in you will need slide the purple bit on the bottom to unlock the pins. When you have put the pin in move the purple bit back, put the plug back in the bulkhead & then put the metal slide across. Next you need to put the pins into the steering wheel stalk connector. This can be seen below. This is where the other wires with pins go. They should be numbered 26 to 31. If the wires aren't numbered but are different colours the list below will tell you what colours the pins relate to PIN 26 - white PIN 27 - red PIN 28 - black PIN 29 - white PIN 30 - yellow PIN 31 - blue This connector has three levels. The wires need to go into the middle level. The pins are numbered. You can see where they need to go from the picture above. You may need to remove the plastic cover around the connector. This should just un-click from underneath and slide out side ways. When you have done that you need to plug the plastic connector on the wiring loom into the module in the drivers foot-well. This is on the right hand side. It should only fit in one hole. if you are having trouble finding the right socket it is socket XS3. You should now have one wire left. This should be a wire with nothing on the end of it. This wire needs to be soldered to the wire coming from the back of fuse 4. This should be a black and blue wire. You need to splice this and solder the last wire to it. DON'T CUT THE WIRE!! Once you have done that you are good to reassemble the dashboard. Once reassembled you will need to activate cruise control using VAG-COM [select] [01 - Engine] [Login - 11] Enter 11463 to activate cruise control [Do It!] That should be it. My cruise control light doesn't seem to light up when cruise control is on, but it does work. Remember cruise control doesn't work in neutral or 1st gear. You also need to be doing over 30kph. The original German guide is attached to the post Hope it helps Check out my other guide on Fog Light Retrofit. Oliver Original_Cruise_Control_Guide__German_.pdf

Will Polo 9n3 GTI rear lights fit my Polo 9n?

Hi I need some help finding some wheels fro my polo and maybe some help with the widest i can get my wheeks , and what diameter etc. I am looking for wheels with a wider offset or wider wheels. and some help on stretch tyres Thanks for your help and time

Hello, I've recently purchased a decat pipe for my 2004 9N 1.4 tdi, has anyone had any issues fitting the pipe Thanks

Hi all, I am new to the forum 🙂 I own a 2002 Polo 9N and I am planning to convert it to a 9N3 face. I am considering getting 9N3's: - Bumper - Headlights - Bonnet - Wings Is crash bar needed too? Thnx!

Hi, I've got the amber steering warning light and intermittent power steering so I opted to change the pump but could only get an a2 pump. Having fitted this pump the power steering appears to be working OK but the warning light is still lit. Could it be that the ECU detects that the pump was originally on an Audi and flag it as an error / fault? Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi, I am new to this forum and this is my first post. I have a VW Polo 9N3 1.2 S 64 which comes with central locking. However I do not have remote central locking so I decided to purchase a comfort control module, model number 6Q0 959 433 E,which I believe can receive remote signals. However when I looked under my dash I noticed that I have a completely different module and have no idea on how to remove it. The current CCM module Model I have in my car is 6Q1 937 049 D. I have not seen any video tutorials or guides with my specific CCM model, but I have read numerous amounts of forums which say replacing the 9N3 CCM's are really easy to replace and that thhe model I purchased will fit right in. I do mot think this is the case for my car :( How would I go about getting remote central locking? Thanks!

I've been searching the net for clearcut information on Polo 9n (not 9n3) dash upgrades with not my much luck. I'm wondering what can be added / upgraded on the 9n's interior electrical/dash side but all I seem to find is 9n3 information. My 05 Polo Dune TDI now has the MFD head unit fitted and I love it. I want to add cruise control next which is fairly straightforward like the Mk4 Golf from what I can see. But are there any upgrades that can be had for the instruments and controls? I'm thinking FIS, MFA on the headunit, multifunction steering wheel (connected to the MFD and cruise?) etc. I have a MFSW from a Mk4 Golf with the control module but I can't seem to find anything about wiring and the clockspring etc. Golf guys get all the toys! Worried the 9n is doomed to have a limited setup with just warning lights on the dash😄

I'm thinking on getting some 9N seats for my 6N2. Will they fit? If not what would I have to do to get them to fit? Thanks in advance, Jon

Hi, apologies if this is the wrong section of the forum (im new to posting here, long time lurker) i have a polo 9n 1.2 3 cylinder, i have heard that it is possible to swap the throttle bodies from that of a mk4 golf, is there a specific engine size from the golf that i need to get it from or will they all fit, i dont know if the golfs use a universal size or they change with engine size which i assume, any help will be appreciated. also i have had trouble of finding exhaust systems that will fit the car, i have a quote of 150 to get a custom backbox made by hand, however is there any full catback systems that you guys use on your polo's many thanks,

Anyone on here?

Bought this car a few weeks ago, it’s my second MK6 polo.. it’s not too bad tbh ???

I'm Tom from Cumbria. I've just bought a 2003 1.4l 16v (100bhp). My previous cars were a 2011 2.0TSI Scirocco and a 2015 Polo GTi. Had a kid so needed to get rid of the hatchback to buy a family car. Bought the 9N as a bit of a project. I am planning on doing an engine swap for a VAG 1.8T in the distant future but for now I'm going to upgrade the brakes and suspension (lower it by 35-40mm) Here is where I need some help. From what I've read I need to keep any new alloys around the 15-16" diameter but the upgrade brake kits state they require a 17" alloy to allow fitting. Does anyone know if fitting 17s would be detrimental to the drive or set up of the vehicle or if it would require any further modifications? Thanks, Tom
