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 -
I’ve just bought a 1994 MK2F, and wanted to put some new wheels on it. It’s currently got the stock alloys on it. I wanted to get the teardrop wheels from the Mk2 golf GTI, but wondered if they would actually fit? Can anyone help?

I have considered going up a step in oil to 5w 40 instead of 5w30 has

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 dro -
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, 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 -

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 b

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
