Hello, I have a problem with my 9N in that last week the temperature warning light popped up on the dash and now I don't seem to be able to get rid of. I'll try and summarise here: - temp warning light came on - it was a hot day but temp gauge read 90 (as it should) and the coolant level was fine - pulled over and engine cooled to 70 - started up again and all ok. then warning light came back on after 1/2 mile. Coolant temp and level still fine but I waited a little longer - started again, light came on again, but I just drove home anyway because I didn't believe what it was telling me. Got home fine and the temp gauge didn't get above 90 Since then the light has come on randomly. Sometimes not at all. Sometimes 10 seconds after starting. Sometimes without starting. So, my thoughts were that it's either a problem with the temp switch in the stat or the coolant level sensor. Or maybe the ECU (I'll get to that)? I unplugged the level sensor, cleaned the contacts, and reconnected after getting a good resistance reading (not open circuit). Started the car and it was fine. Shut the drivers door and stood watched the engine for a few minutes. Went and checked dash, still no light. Job done. Then I opened the drivers door and the temp warning light came back on with the interior light. And strangely since then driver elec window is manual only (if i press the button all the way it doesn't open on its own - I have to hold it down). This door business is making me think it's maybe an ECU fault. I'm happy that the car isn't overheating and that the coolant level is ok. There's no leak. There's no oil in the water. The temp gauge has never gotten above 90. Could it be that maybe it did overheat and the ECU is confused now - it thinks it's overheating but it's not? I have a new coolant temp switch to try, but I'm not convinced that it the problem. I think it's electrical but I don't know where to start with checking. Was tempted to get a VAG COM cable but I have a mac and don't really want to install a partition for windows just for diagnostics. Sorry, that's an essay, but it's not a straight forward problem. I'd be very grateful if anyone else has experience of this sort of problem and has anything they could share. Is there anything else I could try myself before I concede and take it to a garage? Thank you kindly.

Hi guys, I've got a 03 9N1 Polo 1.4L Petrol. It has a Engine Management Light on giving the code P0444 Evap Emission on system purge control Valve Circuit Open. I've tried wiping which works for roughly 5-10 seconds once car is started. I've replaced the solenoid/ Purge valve with two from a local breakers and wiped the code each time but it still came back. Any ideas on what it could be? TIA Keef

Instrument Cluster loosing constant power supply
mitel posted a topic in ICE, Electrical and Lighting
My 9N Polo (2002) has a issue with the Instrument Cluster. Everytime I turn the Ignition Key on, the Trip and Clock have reset to 0KM and 0:00 and the Immobilizer doesn't always allow the Motor to be started. Leave the Key in the run position for a second or two and it will then start and run fine. Both Trip and Clock work perfectly once the Motor is running. Is there a permanent feed to the Instrument Cluster that may be failing? On a few rare occasions the entire Instrument Cluster has been dead until many lock and unlock the door cycles. This problem has escalated over many months from being very intermittent to now being constant. -

polo 1.2 9n keeps unlocking and windows go down?
Polo1.23dr1977 posted a topic in ICE, Electrical and Lighting
Hi all, Ive got a problem with my daughters polo 9n 3 door. The windows have decided to wind down on there own and car unlocks it self to, and there is a constant clicking coming from the doors after this has happened. Ive temp taking out the fuses for the windows and central locking as a temp measure as im worried car will get wet or items may get stolen.. this started happening last night, when i turn the key left on the drivers side door it sometimes lock the whole car and do windows up but most times it just locks that side, other times it locks whole car, this is the same from passenger side too,if i turn the key right it sometimes wind windows down and only only drivers door and sometimes passenger door.. any one point me in the right direction to solve this issue please, recently fitted new clutch and power steering rack, so seems like a never ending story with faults atm, also ive checked the rubber and wires inside the door hinge area and all seem ok, fuses were ok to 38,39 and 51 i think they were,,,thanks -
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

polo 9n tdi gearbox oil leak question
performancevw posted a topic in Engine, Transmission and Exhaust
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?

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'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.

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😄
