It is finally time to sell my polo due to wanting to finish another project. The car has an mot untill July 2020 and has just had new break pads & rear drivers side wheel bearing, since the last mot the car has only driven to the shop a couple of times & to Santa pod raceway the car ran fine all the way there apart from the choke had to be left on I suspect that one of the jets are blocked as I don,t use the car a lot I've not got round to doing a carb rebuild. The car is starting to show some signs of surface rust on the sills & arches and there is a patch on the bonnet that has peeled but has been patched up but apart from that the paint & body work is in very good condition for its age. I'm not too keen to sell to be honest so i wont take any stupid offers as I do like the car & will miss it, it's just I need the money for another project. £1500 ono.£1,500.00

Hi all, I have a Polo 1.2 from 2004. I want to replace a part and I cannot find it anywhere. Inside the engine plastic cover, there is a rubber gasket, that is at the connection with the throttle body. Basically this gasket sits on the top of the throttle body. Could you please help to find this part? I looked everywhere, but I couldn't find it. Thanks

G573 VNS - 1990 Ranger Breadvan - Last seen in Swaffham, Norfolk [PHOTOS INSIDE]
Matt-VNS posted a topic in Where's my old car?
I am looking to contact the owner of what was my first car 1990 Volkswagen Polo Ranger 1.3 5-speed in Tornado Red LY3D (REG: G573VNS VIN: WVWZZZ802LY169919). It is now showing as being untaxed and without MOT so I am concerned for it's future and would like to buy it back before the opportunity to do so evaporates forever. It's last known location was Swaffham (PE37) near Norfolk in January 2018. It changed hands a couple of times around Edinburgh and Glasgow around 2012-2014 before ending up in Norfolk. Here is a RetroRides for sale listing that I found from April 2016, I will drop them a message on there shortly. I later found it for sale on eBay in December 2016, the second photo is taken from the listing. I believe the car was purchased from the eBay seller by an Andrew or their son. Since then it has had G60 steel wheels, an aftermarket steering wheel installed and stickers applied but as I said it is now untaxed and without MOT. In April 2016 it had an MOT performed in Knaresborough, Harrogate. Any information would be much appreciated. If you are the owner, or know them, or know the cars location please contact me on here or drop an email to ThridLaneMotors@gmail.com In Swaffham: G573 VNS by Kevin Miller, on Flickr On eBay in December 2016: Look what I found: G573 VNS by Matt S, on Flickr -
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 WMO, a white 1989 'Match' edition although 'Check The Car' is now showing it as Green! Would just be great to see how it's looking now as this car meant a lot to me! Any help appreciated, thanks. 🙂 -
Hi, I have a new 2019 Polo. About 1 month ago my interior lights and baggage lights stopped working. In the garage they found a short in the electric wires. One day after that problem back. In the garage they found burnt connector placed in the sunshade. Anyone encountered a similar situation ? Thanks, Yosi

If you've been to the petrol station recently, you'll have noticed the labelling of unleaded and diesel has changed. The new labels are E5 and B7 for petrol and diesel respectively. https://inews.co.uk/essentials/lifestyle/cars/car-news/petrol-pump-labels-changed-what-you-need-to-know/ So E5 petrol contains 5% ethanol, B7 is 7% biodiesel. The government is considering introducing E10 petrol, but the RAC research says older Volkswagen golfs are not compatible.. Would our old Polos be ok?

Genuine VW Polo 9N3 roof rack - auxiliary profiles?
Jody Gibbons posted a topic in Bodywork, Interior and Trim
Hi all, I've just bought a Genuine VW Polo 9N3 roof rack for a 5dr polo (Part No.6Q5 071 126 A) It came with what I thought was everything I need however upon downloading the fitting instructions apparently there are four auxiliary profiles that need to be fitted before the roof rack. I don't have these - has one fitted these without them? Looks like it might scratch the paint work without them. Does anyone have any available to buy? I guess you might be able to make something up, like a rubber insert but without a better indication of what they are / look like its difficult to say. Many Thanks in advance Jody -
I have just noticed a fuel leak from my 86 saloon and fuel appears to be leaking from the fixed metal pipe from the filler cap to the tank. Is this a very common issue and where is the best place to buy a new fuel tank.

Hi there, after spending numerous hours in the freezing cold with a multimeter I can say that there isn't a wiring issues on the drivers door of my 2005 VW polo, this part (see image) is attached to the window motor on the drivers side door. Im assuming it's responsible for the 'one touch' feature with the windows as they are able to open and close without you having to hold the switch. However through some testing I have figured that this might be why both windows are working intermittently. I came to this conclusion when I turned the ignition switch on and pressed the window switch down on both sides of the car and got nothing. I then proceeded to remove the larger plug from the top of this part and place it back in and then to my surprise the windows worked, and then they stopped, the issue I'm having is that the windows didn't stop working after I turned the ignition off and then back on again, it was almost as if it were timed. There is no corrosion on any of the contacts and non of the pins/clamps are bent out of place. is it worth spending £35 to replace this part in hopes it fixes the issue or have I wondered from the beaten track. please advise thanks very much.

I was wondering if anyone knew the whereabouts of this dark blue Polo, my boyfriend sold it in August 2016 and regrets it - hoping to know the whereabouts or potential of buying it back. It had a 1.3 engine in it when sold but originally had a 1 litre which I believe was sold with it. Its MOT ran out last summer and it's currently SORNed. Hoping somebody might be able to help!

Hi there I have a 13 year old 2005 VW Polo MK4 1.4 diesel 3 door. Just recently both front electric windows have stopped working intermittently. There is no clicking sound from either of the motors so that means there is no power being supplied to them and the windows are definitely not stuck because when they work they move with ease. There are no other electrical issues with the car, both electric mirrors work ant the central locking buttons on the driver door work with no problem and there are no issues with the wipers, dash lights, indicators, screen-wash pump. At first I thought it might be the 25 amp fuse but there is nothing wrong with it and just to prove it wasn't the fuse I replaced it and still nothing. One thing I can't wrap my head around is that both the window switches on the drivers door or the passenger door don't work yet the switches still light up when you turn the lights on which means the switches do have power to them. After seeing that the lights on the switches were working I tried the windows and still nothing. Would really appreciate it if someone knew more about this than I. Thanks for the help -Tom
