Re: polo 9n3 no warning buzzer sound

If it's like the 9N's there's a little speaker soldered into the circuit board on the clocks/gauges, easiest way is to find a set of scrap clocks, unsolder and then resolder onto yours. Just be careful with the needles etc

Re: GTi Poor Fuel Economy

Tyre pressures? Recently serviced, filters etc? Does it smell rich as it it's burning more fuel?

Re: Polo GTi recalled for what?!

Do you have heated seats? I'm sure there was a recall on some to do with wiring

Re: Electrical Problem? (Polo 9N3)

Have you had any trouble starting the car? It could just be the battery is on the way out and causing everything electric to play up

Re: 'Creak' when coming to a standstill

Get the front suspension bushes checked, they are common and can cause creaking at low/stopping speed. A good way to check yourself is to line the wheels straight, get your foot on the tyre and push the wheel to the back of the car, if there is lots of movement in the wheel, the bushes are shot

Re: 9N3 GTI - How many miles to a tank of fuel?

On good long run you can probably get around 350-400, I managed about 41MPG on the motorway when I had mine. But round town as Tony said, 200 is about right if you are around town and stuff

Both of my GTI's (stage 1 and standard) were identical when it came to fuel economy

Re: New member, Alloy/tyre question

Different PCD I'm afraid, Golf's are 5x112 so no good unless you buy adapters..However, the 6R GTI has 17" alloys, so they will fit fine if you can find a set

Re: Tires.

Which model/engine size is yours? What kind of miles do you do? How much do you want to spend? How long have the current ones lasted? What kind of driving do you do?

If you don't mind paying top dollar, go for something along the line of Continentals

Re: What gives the ibiza cupra 30bhp more than a Polo GTI?

It uses the BBU engine not the BJX, same as the Cup GTI

FR/Polo GTI = BJX
Cupra/Cup GTI = BBU
