Hi,
In the couple of years I’ve owned my 2015 Polo Gti, fitted with the optional climate control, I’ve sometimes noticed some slightly annoying behaviour from the climate control. If you set it to a moderate temperature (say 19 or 20), it’s fine at producing cold air when the ambient temperature is ...

Water trapped in door
Hi, just checking my understanding about an issue I’ve encountered (and think I’ve fixed) with my 2015 Gti 5 door. Searched for solution on the forum but couldn’t find it, so perhaps this thread might help someone. After recent days of heavy rain, I found I could hear quite a lot of water sloshing ...

Re: Ambient temperature readout
The ambient sensor is on the front bumper carrier. It's on the left hand side, behind the lower front grill
I just realised that the YT video I found showing lower grill removal was for the 6R, and the 6C GTI’s grill design is totally different. I’ve not been able to find any guidance online ...

Thanks. Found a YT video showing how to remove the lower grill, looks do-able though I’ve struggled before popping off these kinds of things with trim removal tools.
