An amazing vehicle, really one of a kind. I love driving it, the paint pops. Everyone asks about it wherever it goes. Previous owner took it to shows, where it won awards. I think they're in the loft somewhere... Far as I'm aware there are two items that are not factory, the air intake, and the wheels. I have the original wheels. Fitted with specific front/rear tyres for added rake. And the original air intake is safely tucked away in the garage. Pictures really don't do it justice. It's a beautiful vehicle. I've got loads more pictures, AutoTrader won't let me add them all. If you want to see more of the car let me know and I can send them over. Next MOT due 22/04/2022, Full service history, Red, 4 owners, £5,899An amazing vehicle, really one of a kind. I love driving it, the paint pops. Everyone asks about it wherever it goes.

Hi all, I've got a Polo 6N2 3dr which looks like the driver side door has been replaced, unfortunately with a manual window door. I'm guessing I'll need a new door & door card if I want to replace it and get my electric windows back. Passenger side currently has electric windows. How big of a job am I looking at in terms of price if I was to take it somewhere? 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

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

Looking for an 'old friend', mk2 Polo breadvan G477WMO
TomRussell94 posted a topic in Where's my old car?
*(Sorry for the double post, didn't realise there was a specific forum for this!)* Hi all, so today out of sheer boredom, I decided to look up some old cars of mine on 'Check The Car' to see if they were still on the road! Much to my surprise, my old breadvan was showing as MOTed and Taxed! I haven't owned or seen the car for over 5 years but just wondered if anyone on here owns it or has any info about it! It was purchased from me in Surrey as a SORN project and ??went up north somewhere?? when I sold it before going off to uni, but that's about as much as I know! it was reg: G477 -

Hi guys I’ve done a compression test on my polo. 1.3 gk engine 1984 gl. it’s got a gk cam in it and gn inlet, exhaust and I ported/polished it on a rebuild a while back. It’s been running strong and fairly reliable since rebuild but I never did the bottom end. Cyl1 - 80psi cyl2 - 90 cyl3 - 90 cyl4 - 87 it’s pretty lumpy on idle but revs well otherwise. what’re your thoughts? I think the compression is too low. I could do a bottom end rebuild but I don’t think I can take anything off the gasket etc because it’s already only just cl

My MOT is up in the next few days and thought I should finally get this fixed, washers don't work I pull back on the stock or forward for back ones and nothing I have checked fuses there fine a few weeks ago I played around with washer pump and got it working but only briefly and stopped working the next day. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated thanks.

Hi all, I’ve got a 9N3 Polo with a 5 speed manual which I recently took to the mechanic for what I thought was a wheel bearing on the passenger side, turns out it’s a bearing somewhere in the transmission. The noise sounds just like a bearing gone bad. It is noticeable when in gear and when in neutral with the clutch pedal up, the noise goes away instantly when the clutch is depressed. Nothing is wrong with the actual shifting or feel of the clutch pedal itself, and the noise doesn’t seem to get any louder as I rev the engine in neutral. Mechanics said it’s

Hi First post here, hoping to get some advice on a strange and annoying issue I've got on my wife's polo. Background of the issue first, car was fine but then developed rough idling and sometimes struggled to start. I plugged a code reader into the OBDII port and got a P0322 code (current & pending), Ignition/Distributor Engine Speed Input Circuit No Signal. After looking into it, it seemed highly likely it was the Crankshaft Sensor that was the issue so I replaced this with a new Bosch sensor from ECP, but the problems still exist. The car does start and run howeve

Hey guys and girls! First post here but I’ve been looking through these forums for a couple months now and they’ve been so useful! Absolutely love my Polo 6N2, my first car and I couldn’t be happier! But I do have one reoccurring problem which is really starting to annoy me. I keep getting a check engine light come on, and after scanning the ECU I get the following code: P0134 - O2 Sensor Circuit No Activity Detected (Bank 1 Sensor 1) Got my local mechanic to replace the lambda sensor. Car worked perfect for a couple weeks until I got another P01

Took me a while to log in and looks like my last post was in 2015 so it's been a while! Had a string of MK2s and MK2Fs when i first started driving then a 6n2 up till 2015. Been ticking off the dubs since then with a MK1 Caddy, '72 Beetle, MK5 Golf GTI and MK4 Golf Estate but have come back around to a polo! Picking this lovely 2016 BlueGT next week to join my current stable. The current Stable:

What to do with Polo Openair 1998 1.6 GL Auto Green Metallic 68k miles MOT until Jan 21 but not running
Bob Wright posted a topic in Polo Chat
Hello there. This is my first posting so I hope this works. I have the above Polo which was bought by my Dad and been in our family all 22 years. It is the rare Openair model with a full length electric sun roof. It received a new MOT in January but since the heavy snow and cold I have not been able to start it. As my wife and I approach our seventies we need to take a long term view and, although this Polo is dear to us, pass it on to a Polo enthusiast who will take it forward. The reason it won’t start may be simple but we are reluctant to spend more money and feel time is right to sell on t -

Hi! I'm going to be replacing my fuel tank soon on my 1988 mk2 breadvan as it's got the typical leak around the filler neck. Is there any other parts I should be replacing at the same time as the fuel tank? Any help would be appreciated, thank you

Hello all The windshield washer has stopped working and I've already ordered a replacement washer pump, but out of curiosity and green thinking and also worried that maybe the issue is somewhere else, I wanted to check if there is more that I can do. I've connected a multimeter to the plug from the battery and it correctly shows 12V when the ignition is on and I pressing the lever to spray water. When I do it with the pump connected it makes no sound however. Is there a possibility of another issue somewhere? Can I open up the old pump to check what's up inside? Thank

Hi Sadly the time has come to sell my 1993 mk2f polo coupe CL. I know this is a technical forum, but I'd really like some advice on whether its worth sinking money into the car or not before selling. Mechanically the car is excellent, last service August 2020 with new pads and brakes fitted. Belt fitted March 2020. Mileage is 65,000 and has most service history. Bodywork excellent for age with only a few minor chips and few little bits of rust on sills. Car has below electrical issues: speakers need wired in cluster issue - dash lights and f

VW Polo 9n 2002 Number plate & Dash Illumination Lights not working
Sparagus posted a topic in ICE, Electrical and Lighting
Hi so I'm pretty new to this site but have bumped into a problem with my Polo and not sure where my next move is. So i bought some LED bulbs from Halfords for my number plate lights and after fitting them I turned my lights on to check them but they didn't work, so i decided to put my old ones back in but now the normal bulbs didn't work either. As i went to drive home i realised on my journey home that i also had no Dash illumination lights either and couldn't actually see how fast i was going. My first thought was a fuse problem so the next day i check the fuses and checked the u -
Is it possible to get more out of my VW polo 1991 1ltr engine. ? Or do I just have to live it ? It's so slow . I don't really want to change the engine as I already swoped it out a few years ago like for like etc. Thanks.
