Re: Heater 1.2 2007 9n

Thanks, yes heard of the silica bag issue. I understand the risk of using chemicals in the system but do have a compressor so could force out anything. Might do that first just in case chemicals attach the solder joints in the matrix. Absolutely nothing comes out of the matrix either way it’s flushe...

Condensation on inside of windscreen 2004 9N

Vent motor

On a 2004 9N, if the vent motor is not working and therefore the recirculation is not in operation, can this cause the screen to steam up over night? There are no water leaks. Could it be the vent is open to the outside atmosphere allowing damp air in?

Re: 2004 9N Front bumper iron

Sorted Chassis was straight and just the iron bent. Undid the passengers side 3 bolts and used the iron as a lever to bend the end of chassis back where it bolts onto. Bent easily. Then bolted the iron bar onto the passengers side nd did the same. Front slam panel cracked in a few places and was und...

Re: 2004 9N Front bumper iron

Thanks for your reply

Yes, just bent the ends slightly where it bolts onto

Hoping I can bend them back possibly applying heat to one side and maybe using the bumper bar as a lever if bolted to each leg at a time :0

Thanks for any advice

Cheers

2004 9N Front bumper iron

Hi All Someone kindly smashed into the front corner of my Polo and hoping that I can do most of the work myself being that everything unbolts. My question is, the front bumper bar has been pushed to one side and bent around 45 degrees where it bolts to the chassis legs. I am hoping that I can bend t...

Re: Polo 9n 2004 Bonnet micro switch

You can buy new bonnet catches with switches for the Golf models and they look the same as the Polo catches etc. This is an example ebay advert https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/363781876295?_trkparms=amclksrc%3DITM%26aid%3D1110006%26algo%3DHOMESPLICE.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D238213%26meid%3Da42abfc8d00b47f1b8...
