UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

If it’s not wheels you need to investigate whether you have a warped brake disc or a binding caliper. These problems would give vibration.

Looking really good Baz, little touches like calipers make all the difference. Keep up the good work

Looks like a nice car Bazz, Black 3 doors are the best ones too I’m glad you got it fixed with the new ECU, result.

The pics look fine to me, any of the interior?

Yeah put it on here, it’d be good to follow

Are you after a genuine badge?

If not Ebay has plenty on there.

Ah ok. Skoda Fabia VRS may be another way to source parts if skoda is in Israel?

Ah ok, I’m surprised they even did the polo over there, I work in Saudi a lot and I’ve never seen a VW let alone a Polo!

Where are you from?

The mk5 golf or Transporter T6 has the same handles so that’s something newer to look at.

As for brakes, anything is possible if you change the hubs and possible drive shafts. I used the VR6 as a cheap example. Someone else may shed some light on the Ibiza setup.

Those style door handles have been on a few models so I’d guess you can still get them from TPS for example. Easy breakers yard find without doubt! As for brakes, I couldn’t comment on Ibiza but I have the 280mm G60/mk3 VR setup. Bigger discs and carriers, original calipers and pads so easy to do an...

It’s hard keeping momentum with a build thread too, I’m slowly renovating my GTI but you guys would be fed up with how long it’s taking as I do a bit then it takes a back seat whilst I convert my T5 or mess around keeping my daily going for example.

There’s not a lot of 6N2 GTI’s about now tbh. I find this forum good for the technical stuff. I tend to use edition 38 for build threads but you still only see the odd 6N2 on there.

It’s a shame to lower GTI’s too much IMO as you can’t drive them as intended. It’s ok if you’ve got a 1.0l 6N2 as it makes no difference

The wheels shown above were off the mk3 golf and the mk3.5 Cabrio golf. They are a straight swap as they are 4x100 pcd. You can put spacers on the rear if you want but you need to consider buying longer wheel bolts. Also if you have a lowered car the ‘tuck’ may come in useful for clearance so spacer...

Have you checked for leaks in the pneumatic system? They are prone to leaking and not building enough pressure to operate the locks. Look around the petrol cap lock for airline leaks there, it's not uncommon.
