Holy s**t.
Well good thing the Polo AW crash test from 2017, 2022 been rated 5 star in the Euro Ncap
50mph that's like 80km/h, that's dam fast to meet a tree. Well from the pictures it does look like the car absorbed alot of impact.
Hope you get well soon. Drive safe out there.

Re: anyone tried LED interior replacement lamps?

Re: anyone tried LED interior replacement lamps?
Any LED w5w(interior light) and feston 37mm(makeup light) socket will work. No need for canbus in interior lamps, except in the trunk.
Same in my old car.
I bought a ton of different canbus w5w for the trunk that had glitchy connection, before replacing it with "WinPower Car Footwell Lighting for ...

Re: Is the manual reverse gear suppose to hold gas?

Im switching from a very old car, so not used to all the new stuff and unsure if it was faulty or suppose to be like that.

Re: Polo reliability and the latest What Car report
Well my Polo -18 that I bought used had issue with the gearbox (reverse synchron ring worn). Got it swapped on warranty to a used one.I feel like the swapped gearbox is having the tendancy to the same issue sometimes. So now I just wait like 1-2 extra second before putting gear in reverse. Will ...

It looks like standard interior car clips you find everywhere on car and bike. Where you either push or screw the plug in so the back expand.

They also found a loose air filter intake and a very worn stabilizing rod on the front ...

Re: 2019 Polo with MFD problem
It shows your engine hood is open, probably not closed properly. Open the hood and close it.
