Re: Winter Checkup Dealer Experience

Thanks for the feedback all. The dealer in Southampton by the was was Peter Cooper, Hedge End. By the way I bought from them because I used the Wow car site to ask for offers on a new Polo Beat and Peter Cooper Hedge End came in the cheapest.

Winter Checkup Dealer Experience

I have just moved from Southampton up to Durham and had my first experience with a new VW dealer, and am not impressed. Today, the first time I've driven my Jan 2019 Polo Beats since it went in for the £20 "Winter Check" that VW are pushing the "Exhaust System Warning" light came...

Re: 4 days in and suddenly Apple CarPlay won’t connect

Mine seems to have fixed itself overnight. Very annoying. I'll keep an eye on it and follow the points made here about when I connect and disconnect.

4 days in and suddenly Apple CarPlay won’t connect

Got my car 5 days ago and been having problems when using Waze or playing music if I stop mid-journey and turn off ignition. Frequently find there’s no music or circular busy indicator until I unplug phone and restart car again. Phone is Iphone 7 plus. Today after stopping at service station CarPlay...

Re: What did you and your Polo do today?

Today I collected my new Polo Beats and drove it around a bit. Like it a lot but at one point the interior lights wouldn’t turn off. In the end I locked the car, unlocked it again, opened the boot up and slammed it hard shut again and the light went out. Parked up and then the same thing happened ag...

Re: New Polo Beats Owner - Dashcam Question

My headphones were purchased about 10 years ago for around £300 so things MAY have improved but they really were total junk. I listened to a lot of audio podcasts at the time and they were just unlistenable. I soon junked them. I now use Bose QuietComfort 35 and at home I use Audio Technica DT770 Pr...

Owners Manual in PDF Form?

Been trying to get hold of the owner's manual for my new Polo Beats 2019 model which I haven't got yet but going round in circles as it only seems to be available from Volkswagen and their site is broken. The site doesn't recognise the registration number (probably too new) but does recognise the VI...

New Polo Beats Owner - Dashcam Question

Hi, I’m a new VW owner having previously owned a Skoda Citigo for 3 years. I take delivery of my new 2019 Polo Beats 1.0 TSI on Friday and have been given a demo SE model in the meantime as there was nobody available over the Christmas break to register the vehicle I’ve bought. Needed something quic...
