Hi,
Can the 2 bolts holding the striker, on the B pillar, be removed without the retaining bracket (inside the pillar) falling down ?

Power for Rear dash cam
Want 12 power for a rear facing dash cam. How would 12 power normally be obtained for the rear?
Thought I might get the boot light to stay on (somehow) and use the 12v from the light for the camera. Is the boot light operated by a micro switch in the hatch lock, or a switch elsewhere ?
Thanks

Re: Tyres with less noise
Thanks for that. Your answer is helpful but exactly which conti's and goodyears are you referring to, and when, because tyres are always being updated and renamed. At over £80 a tyre I can't afford to experiment.

Tyres with less noise
My tyres are firehawk 195/55/R15 from new, need 4 new ones. I've looked for a long time on tyre review sites and there's NO agreement or consensus on which tyres are relatively quiet with less cabin noise. NO agreement at all. I was wondering whether the tyre manufacturers noise spec figure (eg 70db...

If you manage to connect a 'media player' and it works please post the results, me and I'm sure a few others would be glad to hear about it.

Re: Boot lid jammed
The car manual explains the options for opening the boot/hatch.

Re: Soundproofing
Re under BONNET sound proofing. I've got a roll of thick felt designed for under bonnet use, which i'll cut to shape. Was wondering if anyone can recommend a brush-on long-life heat-proof adhesive that will allow removal or re-positioning of the felt (if necessary) before setting.

Put your request in writing to the manager, and refer to trading standards or their motor trade association.

Re: Haynes Manual Polo IV (9N) 2001
Fairly sure that in the UK there's just one Haynes manual for the 9N polo, covers petrol and diesel, its got a green cover. It does not cover the later 9N3 models.

Re: 1.4 petrol engine noise
As an owner of a 1.4 petrol 2009 that's somewhat concerning because a properly serviced engine, like the OP's engine, should last for at least 100K. Maybe it was thrashed by the previous owner.

Re: Alloy wheels
The last 9N3 polos have manufacturer fitted 15 6J wheels with 195/55/15 tyres. I've also seen these fitted to a lot of older 9N polo's. I will mention that if you have 4 15" wheels/tyres plus the old 14" spare in the boot, if you get a flat tyre on the front and fit the 14" spare you ...

Re: What wheel size can fit
I've seen many 9N polo's retro fitted with the 15 inch x 6J alloys 6 spoke that were fitted to the end of line 9N3 models. They take 195/55 tyres and have 5 bolts. Some of the 9N polo's had 15x6J from new, like the tdi sport. Whether they will fit your model I can't say.

Re: Battery going flat Twice in fortnight
To be sure its the radio etc I'd replace all fuses and remove the radio unit from the vehicle, and see how things are for a few Weeks. A part that flattens the battery in a few hours will usually run warm and show signs of heating.
