Re: Upgrading my Polo 6R bifuel

Hello guys and sorry for ''hijacking'' this thread just a quick question.
What type of bulbs does the polo have in the interior?
I want to change all of them (5 on the roofline,2 footwell,1 in the trunk) to white leds instead of the factory yellow color.
Thanks in advance.

How can i adjust my bonnet

Hi guys.I've noticed that my polo has a slightly bigger gap between the bonnet and the front grill compared to other 6rs.The gap on each side with the fenders is perfect but on the front it sits a little high. I tried adjusting the rubber grommets but it didn't change anything other than me being ab...

Re: SOS!!! Do i have a serious problem?

The mechanic says ''yes'' to all of that.Actually he asked me to keep the car for one more day from the beginning so that he could make sure that it drives ok.(i thought that's weird.he could have driven it right away).I had previously taken a photo so i checked and the car had done 6 miles so i don...

SOS!!! Do i have a serious problem?

I decided to change the timing chain,tensioner etc.(whole set) because the car made that horrible noise on startup that started a couple of years ago. Now i can hear this weird whinig noise that increases as the revs increase and sounds like those little toy cars. To better understand what i mean he...

Re: Increased fuel cosumption after replacing spark plugs

The only thing that has changed are the spark plugs.Literally the only thing. On another forum some people suggested to check the gap and if that is ok to check if they are genuine or not.There are many fake NGK (and Denso) spark plugs out there. I haven't noticed any missfires or stutter but i have...

Increased fuel cosumption after replacing spark plugs

Last week the mechanic replaced the factory spark plugs on my car (1.2 tsi 105 ps).It only has 30.000kms or 18.600 miles but VW say they have to be replaced after six years and i have the car for 7 and a half. From that day on the fuel consumption has increased quite a lot. Nothing else changed.I ha...

Re: ciclo's Polo. R-line 1.2 TSI 90hp 119gr.

Oh.I meant how can i remove the trim around the switch.I have already disconnected the switch a couple of times.That's very easy.Even when i searched on ETKA it doesn't show that plastic trim as a part itself.
