My polo gave me a black eye

I know this is an old post but can hou help with this issue , the motor is done & ive ordered a new one but causious about fitting it as i cant remember what position the flaps were in , do the flaps need to be one open & one shut ? Or both open or both shut? Do the white cogs need to be pos...

Yeah i thought that would have been the case , im normally good with stereo wiring set ups but bit old school , these newer tech wiring systems & boosters etc is sort of like relearning stereo installs all over again
Interesting though .
Cheerz for that input

Yeah sorry been away for a while so havnt been on here to read added comments , update to the job of waterpump replacement is that ive had no issues with the waterpump at all & i check it visually reasonably regular , 👍🏼 I’ll soon be dropping out the coolant & refresh the system with new coo...

I have the 2016 polo facelift , have the no signal issue for the dab , it has been like it for long time i dont think it has ever worked properly & ive had the car from brand new liturally 12miles on the clock. I put it down to that maybe it was a commom issue with all dab tech or the digital si...

I have done this replacement on my 2016 polo 1.8 gti tsi bm, It was a bit of a mission at some points in the proceedure, with the gti there was a reasonable amount of bits to remove to actually get to see where the bolts were on the waterpump & actually get the thing off the engine lol good thin...

This morning i installed a fresh new pollen filter & air filter, topped the oil up a tad , checked for faults , wanted to give the car a good wash & polish but the weather is horrendus down here in kent SE .

Yeah if your not in the know ! Which i wernt at the time lol
When i first did this task i didnt pay attention to what position it sat as i took it out so when i put the new one in i put it in wrong thus nearly catching the car on fire over time.

Hi there , i replaced the heater resistor on my polo ages ago, its a fiddly job but easy enough to do, Its a weird one tbh as it didnt register till after i removed the pollen filter that i smelt burning from the dash a week or so before i had an issue with no heat on the first/ second heat cycle , ...

Definatly …as Sparticus said get the dealer to fix the issue as youve got warranty on the car , odd that they didnt check all that !? Or they did notice but sidelined the issue !? There was a youtube vid i watched but not sure if it was the same one spart mentioning , as soon as i watched that i tho...

@Dink,
Much appreciated for your input , it was confusing me with the proceedure i had in my bonce ,i couldnt visualize it , your suggestion connected the dots.
Thanks again.

Hi ppl, I need to know what actual fuse i need to remove before i open up the HPFP , My Easymanuals vw workshop dont show it for some reason, any1 able to tell me which one & where it is located ? Engine bay or in car dash? There are a few fuses/relay. I thought maybe unclipping the Vacuum pump ...

Filters are relatively cheap & they are better off being replaced , most ppl have them replaced at service intervals but if yours is playin up or its been on the car for ever ?
For peace of mind either way renew it if ya want .

Could be that mate?
i hate the balancing weights lol i had new tyres fitted not so long ago & the wheels balanced aswel but they dont stick well or the machanics dont press them on hard enough , i heard a couple of mine come off & flung around wheels never to be seen again .

I gave up on the idea tbh & now waiting for a cheaper solution , all the stuff ive read & what dealers have told me made me think that theres too much messing about with settings ,programmes & codings , mix & matching etc , i think youve gota be pretty clued up to do it ! Short of pa...
