Squeaky suspension when driving over speed bumps

Hi guys, when I drive over speed bumps my suspension makes an unusual squeaky/rubbing sound, this has only started the past few days and I think is only on the passenger side! Anyone know what could cause this? Thanks

Re: Parcel Shelf Clips

Mine legit just has 2 screws and the string has a loop on the send that goes over the screws, unsure if this was like it was at stock or if it's DIY but works will take a photo tomorrow

Check engine light but no codes

Hi guys, got my (cheap) code reader today after hearing good reviews on it, tested my car and it says there's no faults/codes even though I have a check engine light, is this due to my code reader just being a bag of s**t or does this mean something on a 9n 1.2?..

Re: Polo 9N water ingress spare tyre we'll and back seats

I've not got the same problem after a heavy shower last night, mine must be comming in through the the passenger side rear light as I've got a well of water built up, but the water did nearly reach the rear seat, so you might have the same issue, I've heard replacing the cluster gaskets is the solut...

Interior light wiring.

I want to add some LEDs in my boot to go along with my boot build, I was thinking the most simple way would be to wire them to the interior light, anyone able to guide me on how I could hook this up before I end up making a giant mess... [emoji23]

Re: Polo 9N water ingress spare tyre we'll and back seats

Unsure but the guy said his problem was because he had 6n lights fitted, I'm the wrong person to ask, was just posting that as it may be some help to you! I'm sure someone on here knows me than me! Aha!

RPM hovers around 10k when idle

Hi guys, can anyone shed some light on this, I dont think it did this a few days ago but I've noticed when I turn my car on the rev counter goes straight to 10k then works like normal from there but seems to treat 10k as 0, the engine doesn't sound or feel like it has a fast idle speed so I'm guessi...
