I don’t have a current model Polo GTI, but I would expect the fuel filler flap to be fully flush with the rear quarter panel when it’s closed, with an even sized gap around the edge of the filler flap and the surrounding panel (it is on my previous generation Polo GTI). If you live close to a VW dea...

I truly wish there was more variety wrt colours of teh GTI. Here we only have a choice of Red,WHite, Back and Blue... No Grey. The new colour I really like from VW isnt available as an option for the GTI, namely White Silver Metallic. Guess its wrap time yo! I agree, the colour palette for the GTI ...

I would image it would be extremely expansive for one, dealers probably don't have any instructions for doing it, part numbers involved etc and the coding required, maybe VW specifically state it isn't an upgrade dealers are allowed to perform as well. My car doesn't have navigation, I didn't see t...

It’s not unusual for a car sales person to know very little about the product range they are selling. On more than one occasion, I’ve had a salesperson try and persuade me to buy certain options when those features were part of the standard spec for the car. Usually, the majority of car salespeople ...

I've got a number of rattles in my new Polo. Drivers door and around speaker area. You can hear it even with music on Also, I had to get the trim panel replaced (due to ambient light strip had some failed LEDs) and since then, there is a rattle on passenger side by air vent Sent from my ONEPLUS A60...

1.2 TSI owners - What’s the recommended tyre pressures for the standard 185/60/15 tyres please? The tyre pressure plate on our car says 38psi, but I don’t think this is correct. Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk That’s VW’s recommended tyre pressure, but IMO it’s not necessarily the optimum...

Hi guys So I’ve just bought a polo 1.2 tsi 2012. I don’t really like that alloys which it already has, need some suggestions on what alloys to get. The current ones I have look like the standard ones. Suggest me some alloys to get below. Thank you I did respond to your very similar question that yo...

All being well, I plan on changing my previous generation Polo GTI for a current model GTI+ next year. Am I worried that a facelift version might be launched within 12 months of me getting my car? Not at all. If a facelift version of the Polo is hit with the ‘ugly stick’ like the new Golf has been (...

Instructions for removing the headlamp units from the owner’s manual (in the index it should be under ‘headlights -> removing and installing the headlights’). ‘ First read and observe the introductory information and safety warnings⇒Introduction  The headlight needs to be removed in order to change ...

The wait is nearly over! Just don’t let any of that excitement blinker you on pick up day. Don’t be rushed and check every aspect of that new car. I had a total horror of a new Polo Gti (a dealer stock car, so not a specific build) which ended my ownership with it after 2hrs and 40 minutes. I was j...

Fully LED rear clusters with dynamic indicators like the A1 has would be expected for facelift. Not for a few years though. Personally, I’m not a fan of dynamic indicators - I think they look a bit gimmicky. Others will love them, but it’s good that people like different things, otherwise life woul...

Hello, Some Polo GTI owner told me that a facelift is expected around March 2020. However, I did not find anything about it while searching the internet. Any idea? I might buy a new GTI in the coming months. Thanks, __Yehavi: I’d say that a facelift version of the Polo as early as March 2020 is unl...

Hi guys, Sorry I looked it up but was not able to find a solution...can anyone tell me what is that phone icon on my 6C GTI? thanks, AJ Can’t help you with what the icon is, but It looks as if the panel with the icon on it has been retro-fitted into the storage compartment in front of the gear leve...
