  1. Hello, For the past 4 months I've been driving a 2011 1.6 TDI DSG Polo 6R, 90hp. In this period of time I changed all filters, oil (engine, power steering, brakes, transmission), and a few other components that failed in the meantime. Recently I noticed a weird behaviour with the engine at idle. I managed to catch it on video this time. With the car in park/neutral/drive with the foot on the brake, engine revs jumping up and down as shown in the video. This happened after 5 minutes of driving. In adition, when this is happening, there is white-ish smoke coming from the exhaust, not that much that I can't see behind but enough to make it hard to see. Unfortunately because I am a beginner, I am not able to identify what type of smoke it is. After driving slowly for a bit, sometimes at idle it will stop revving up and down but it will stay at 980 RPM at idle, usually it stays at 910-920 and the engine will run and sound poorly. From what I could find online, many results point at a vacuum leak, O2 sensor or idle air control valve. Has anyone seen this behaviour before? I am trying to narrow down the possibilities as much as possible. Thank you for your time
  2. This car has been a headache since I have got it in December. Viewed it and the only thing wrong was a seized caliper. Fine, rebuilt that caliper on a Saturday. Drove it around and realized it was only revving to 5k rpm and and sometimes would stop pulling. Read the codes, crank speed sensor and cam sensor. Replaced both of those and did the timing belt as it was due. Car started up on the button and 3 seconds later immediately started to piss out oil. Fucking rear main seal housing had a crack in it. Changed that and as we was down there did the clutch, starter and all. Put it back together, wouldn't start even tho everything is perfectly aligned. Read codes again, immobiliser issue, sent it off to get repaired (water damages) got it back and fitted it and nothing. Only code now is camshaft sensor speed/range however as far as I'm aware it shouldn't stop it starting. We have strong spark, great compression, great fuel pressure. Any ideas?
  3. VW Polo 2007 1.4cc Auto 9N Engine Code BKY Car wouldn't start one day so I did basic checks, removing fuel pipe to injectors and throttle body. Petrol to injectors but not throttle body (not sure if this is correct on ignition only). Then disconnected battery and left for a week (other issues arose) and then reconnecting battery it would start but only tick over. If trying to increase revs, it would just refuse and seem like it was going to die, throttle off back to tick. About 6 months ago it was running poorly but I did a thorough throttle body clean (removed and cleaned) and it had been running fine so I don't think it's that. I did check the FAQ and searched but nothing quiet similar. Appreciate any thoughts. Thanks
  4. I’m trying to figure out whats in my mk1 golf. On an old advert I found from over 10 years ago it was advertise to having a 1.3 8v with a hydro head. I was wondering if anyone in this community might recognize anything to help me identify what’s going on. I understand the whole bay is a mess and thats why I’m trying to figure out what parts are correct before ordering to try get this car going. thank you in advance c
  5. Another Oil related question. Daughter had her 2018 Polo 1 Litre serviced at VW last year at 24,500 miles, now at 33,000 the dipstick is showing minimum. Do these engines need regular topping up ?
  6. Putting a new auc 1L petrol engine in my 2001 polo after timing belt went on the old engine. There appears to be no way to attach the engine mount bracket on the new engine. The plastic cover covers the whole right side of the engine? Do I have the wrong engine or am I missing something obvious. It is an AUC 2001. I cant find anything online about an alternate way for it to be mounted?
  7. Hey everyone, The polo has recently developed a new noise. It's started to whine (and unfortunately it's not a G40 haha). The noise is often heard when pulling away or changing up the gears at a low rpm. However, the noise is most audible (and annoying!) when changing down into 2nd gear I have noticed but I presume any aggressive downshift would result in the same. I thought that this might have been a clutch related noise however even when fully off the clutch, the noise continues for a few more seconds. I've done some general reading around and have come to a few possible answers that I'd like clarification on as to whether they could be the solution. Change of gearbox oil? Contaminated or damaged clutch? A worn or damaged belt? Any advice or notes from previous experience would be helpful. Thanks guys!
  8. Hi, I'm back again searching for help and advice. You've been really helpful previously and I'm very grateful for that. Maybe you could help again. When I'm driving the car it will suddenly and briefly lose power, it lasts for a second or two and then jerks into life and suddenly accelerates. Occasionally it'll stall at a junction too. It's recently become damp weather where I live so I sprayed all electrics I could find with gt85 and for about 10 minutes I thought I'd fixed it but it's back. It's not just a little frustrating but I'm concerned it could potentially be dangerous if I have to pull across traffic and it happens. Any help or guidance will be gladly accepted.
  9. Hi just wondering if anyone knows if these covers have a part number or not just bought a cover off ebay but the bolt covers are missing ill attach a photo. thanks
  10. Hi did a quick search on here and the Internet but can't find any info on if the 1.4 16v valve engine AUA would fit in my 1996 6n1 and how easy it would be?. Thanks
  11. Hi guys, Just noticed this little bung when inspecting my engine bay. Never noticed it before so not sure if it's always been open but I wanted to know if I should close it? On a side note, it would also be helpful if anybody could tell me what it does and why it's there? Please see the photos below for reference. Many thanks.
  12. Hi guys! Finally picked up an induction elbow off a MK3 golf for my 2f Polo. I'm in the process of looking for a cone filter and wanted to know if I should measure the inside or outside diameter of the elbow? (Even better if someone already knew it?) Thanks!
  13. Hello, I have one problem with my polo classic model year 2000. I drove it a couple of days ago and everything was normal. Yesterday I tried to start it up and car just cranks but it is not starting. When I was starting it before, glow plug light always lit up for a couple of seconds but now glow plug light does not light at all and I don't hear relay click. The battery is new and voltage is good, I opened fuse box and all of the fuses are good. I don't know which relay is for what, I read on the forums that relay 109 could be bad but I don't have that relay number. What could be the cause of this and what should I check next ?

    Gt on carbs?

    The previous owner of my polo ran the engine dry and the engines completely welded, I have been looking for a replacement engine and the closest one to me is a guy saying that he has a 1.3L Gt engine which should run on carbs. My car is a polo mk2 ranger which already has a 1.3 in it, i was wondering if the GT would be a straightforward swap, or would I need to change things?
  15. Hi, I've had this issue for a while, and I've been active on the polo group on facebook whilst trying to figure out this issue. I'll provide a timeline for my issue. 1. I changed timing belt, car started and I had no engine jerk. Car has always been difficult to start and nothing changed after changing the timing belt. 2. After around 2-3000km and 2 months, the car dies on the highway in the middle of a tunnel. After a couple of days with fiddling with vacuum lines, spark plugs, fuel and other fault seeking methods, I discovered that the ECU (multipoint Jetronic) had a blown circuit on the ground which stopped the injectors from opening. Added some solder and engine started. However, the engine now had weird idle and was uncomfortable to drive. Replaced ECU with a new unit from Ebay, no difference in behaviour. 3. I have changed sparkplugs, distribitor unit (complete) with hall sensor, distrubitor dizzy, distribitor cap, leads and coil. I also changed middle part of exhaust and all vacuum lines with new VW oem Ø3.5mm ones. 4. A post on facebook told me to check the timing, which I did. Haynes told me that the timing mark and timing light should overlap, but I am unable to actually change the settings enough to get the light to hit the edge of the timing mark indicator on the engine. I'll add some figures below. The Yellow line is where I am able to adjust the timing to be maximum, the green is where haynes recommends me to be. Did I buy the wrong distributor? It had a different letter in the end of the Part Number. If it is not the timing, which other things can cause engine jerk? It is really intermittent and only on cyl 2 and 4 which I checked with the timing light. It is as if it "skips" every 2-4th of the sparks. Anything else I can check? Thanks in advance. Yellow: Max adjusment I get, distribitor location in next figure. Green is where haynes tells me to be. Figure: Unable to advance timing further. Figure: Haynes recommendation of base timing setting. Figure: The setting above lets me hit the setting recommended by Haynes.
  16. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BTW: I know it's better to install another engine, but that's not the idea of this project, I want to get the most out of this engine because I like 1.4s. 6N is my dream platform, I like everything in it! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello everyone, I decided to ask you what modifications it is possible to make on this engine? I''d like to have MPI system! For a start, I decided to start with the following modifications: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 272 or 276 cam Porting and polishing the cylinder head Custom intake manifold with universal 65mm or 1.8t throttle body Exhaust cut off valve Chip tuning Ramair intake or HKS mushroom filter flywheel lightening Omex rev limiter for launch control ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I have the following questions: Can i install ABU or AEE cam and will there be an increase in power and torque? 1.6 crank on 1.4 block and maybe 1.6 head if necessary? I read in a forum about 1.6 with 2.0 crank and pistons and that's why I decided to ask! Can i put itbs but with MPI? Can i put bigger injectors for more fuel and better fuel pump and will there be any benefit? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I want to have 100-120 or more HP! i''d like to have low end torque that have now if it is possible! Thanks in advance to everyone who responded and helped with the project!
  17. Hi is there by any chance a way to get my hands on a new exhaust manifold for my polo 86c ? (1984) Are there any manifolds from other engines that fit?
  18. Hope I'm not repeating a question already asked, but is the intelt manifold supposed to be held onto the engine head with studs & nuts,, or with bolts? Mine has two studs with nuts and 3 bolts. I have tried looking online for photos/posts and had no luck. Thanks in advance
  19. Hi there, Looking for some help when it comes to timing a GTI engine. As it stands I have GTi engine which I have replace the timing belt on. Now I'm not 100% confident that the engine timing is correct after reading from other source you need specific tools. So instead of potentially damaging the engine I want to start from scratch as if I don't know what position the cams or crank is in. What I want to know is what positions the cams and crank should be in and what tools if any are required to get the timing right. Apologies if this topic already exists but I couldn't find it. Thank you in advance.
  20. Hi All, I’ve been having an issue with my Mk5 1.6 TDI diesel (2010 plate, approx. 83000 miles) for a few weeks now, and several garages have been unable to solve it. I bought the car from a national used car chain 7 months ago, but unfortunately it’s now out of warranty. I got a flashing engine management light on my dash about 3 weeks ago, which was followed by a loss of power to the engine - it could still run and cruise at 30-40mph, but accelerating past ~40mph, and accelerating away from lights was noticeably slower. I took it to a local garage who reset the light, but it came back the next day so they ran a diagnostic which said the fuel rail pressure was low. They rinsed the fuel lines and cleaned the filter (can’t remember exactly which one), then took it for a test drive and said it was running fine, but the light came back again the next day at the exact same spot on my commute. I booked it into a VW dealership’s garage for yesterday, and they said that there was a battery defect and they were confident that changing the battery would sort it. I took it to a different local garage to get the battery changed today, and they said they couldn’t find any faults with it, and that even changing the battery didn’t seem necessary. I took it for a test run this evening with the new battery fitted, and the light came on at exactly the same point in my journey. This occurs about 15 minutes into the drive, after going from 30-40-60-30-60mph along an A road - the light comes on at the end of a ~0.5 mile stretch of the A road with a 60mph limit. Apologies for the length of the post, but any tips would be much appreciated! I’ve tried tightening the fuel cap but that made no difference. I’m also supposed to be moving 3 hours away next week and currently don’t have a car to do it with! Thanks in advance, Matt
  21. Good afternoon guys. I have a problem with my 6n2 gti. The problem is everytime I'm accelerate and changing gear the rev gauge going up a bit before it's falling back and the car just feel slow. I have a fault code: p1340 crankshaft/camshaft position sensor incorrect allocation. Does anyone knows what this can be? Thank you for any help
  22. Hi Do anyone know where the Knock sensor are for my 2014 Vw polo tsi 1.2 highline dsg 81kw.
  23. Jack-6n2

    1.4 16v

    I currently have a 1.4 16v 75bhp 6n2 but looking to replace the engine, I believe mine is a AUA but the one I am looking at putting instead is a different engine code but is from a 6n2 and is also a 1.4 16V would it still be plug and play or will it not work? Cheers for the help
  24. Hey guys, i'm fairly new to the VW scene, (excuse me if i make any mistakes, im not a native speaker), so back to the point, I've got my AEE engine rebuilt last summer, and after 320k kms it was a breeze to drive it, but im getting used to it, so im planning to shoot for lets say a 100 hp, or something near to that, i have some plans, but yeah, you guys know way more than me so, my weak ass plans are: - porting the head, with bigger valves - a bit more agrssive camshaft - custom intake, with the 1.4 16vs throttle body (as far as i remember the 1.6 aee has a 45, and the 1.4 16v has a 55, also its the mk3's bowden operated one) - some kind of exhaust system with a bigger size, and a stainless mainfold. And basically thats that, so if you guys got any tips, i'd be glad to hear them, also if there are some better methods, im happy to hear them.
