UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

I have a 1.2 TSI and I also experience this, albeit only when the outside temperature is cold. Yeah, mine definitely "ticks" a little more from cold. This is pretty much what mine sounds like (and others I've heard) I think they tend toward being a little more rattly, as the cam is chain ...

Hey All
I'll be taking my Polo abroad to some quiet hot and sunny countries shortly and so I was wondering if anyone was using any front windscreen sunshades they could recommend?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers for the advise, I'll look into it.
Does the foam/plastic not end up melting though?

Hey all
I know these "Modern" engines sound more like sewing machines when they idle but mine seems to tick a lot louder now than when I purchased it (2nd hand) a few months ago. Ive got a 2011 1.2 TSI and its only dont about 6k miles total. Any thoughts?
Maybe its just my imagination?

Apologies should read 5k or 5000miles.

Hmm, well for actual VW warranty its just over 3 years, so I guess its not 3 years or 60k more like whatever you get to first and then its out of warranty?

Hi All
I recently purchased a 2011 VW Polo that had only done 5000k miles from a Vauxhall/Ford dealers.
Not that I've got any major problems with it, but I was wondering if I've got/am allowed any type of free warranty with VW as I'm its second owner?
Cheers

I'll defo be keeping an eye on it.

Great stuff all done. Thanks for your help.
I posted how I did it and pics on this post

Hi guys I fitted this with a pal at the weekend on my 1.2 TSI. Dead simple. (As long as youve got some tools for taking the stereo off with and its surround without scratching the dash up) Buy a 3.5mm to 3.5mm stereo jack (approx 1meter ish) The one end goes into the Bluetooth box behind the stereo ...

I have a BlueGT that's now covered 7000 miles and changing down to 2nd it is still stiff, I raised this with VW and they said that they generally wouldn't look at it until 10000 miles as it takes that long to loosen up, I'm not entirely convinced seeing as 2nd gear is used a lot where as 6th that i...

Hey guys Ive just purchased a 2011 1.2tsi Polo thats only done 5000 miles (I'm the second owner) and I wonder if theres an issue with the gearbox. I know that these dont have as shorter shift as you'd imagine they'd have, but its feels very stiff and clunky when changing through gears. Any thoughts?...

Hi
I cant find anything on this forum when I search the term

"Wilxay"

Can you advise further please?

Hi all I'm the proud owner of a new Polo (Went from a piece of cr@p 1995 1.3 to a 2011 1.2 tsi in only 6 years :) ) I've got the RCD 310 head unit, the VW branded Bury Bluetooth unit and an iPhone 5. The bluetooth unit works fine for calls, but I can't get the bluetooth audio to to work on it. Thing...

Is this going to be a main VW parts dealer only as nothing is coming up on eBay for these part numbers?
Thanks
