Re: Oug8 update showing in car,could not download



please excuse the questions (and offering no help either)

is this software updating for the car (ECU?), entertainment module or what.. not even heard a little of this previously.. I don't get any messages; too low in the model range perhaps?


Your car is a pre-facelift Polo (AW model) and OTA ...

Re: Polo AW lowering springs

Hello,
Lowered my 2021 pre facelift Polo AW using Eibach Pro Kit springs and couldn't be happier, though if you want to lower it around 30/35mm then you would need the Sportline kit instead of the Pro Kit though i think the Pro do a wonderfull job not leaving the car too high nor too low.

Re: Oil level light


VW always used to state in the owner’s manual that it’s normal for a car’s engine to consume some oil. The figure they stated was up to 1 litre of oil per 1000 kilometres, so if oil consumption is less than this, then VW are very unlikely to do anything other than tell you it’s within what they ...

Help with LED optics

Hello guys,
So i was thinking about purchasing and retrofiting LED headlights to my polo but i have some doubts. Is it easy to retrofit like is it plug and play or will the swap from non-led to led require coding?
Does the OEM optics with DRL have led beams or xenon?
Does anyone know where to buy ...

Re: Led lights on a polo


They should come with a small resistor box that’s part of the wiring, and you plug that in to the original light socket connector and the car would think it’s a normal bulb. That was with the slightly older version to the one I showed you so I’m not sure if they’ve built the resistor into the ...

Re: Led lights on a polo


When you have the facelift version you have LED as standard.
The pre facelift not.
If your daytime leds are in the bumper you should have halogen light, if they are in the lightunit than probably LED light.

Why don't you post a picture of your car?


Thanks,
I can do that once I leave work. My ...

Re: Led lights on a polo



AFAIK all polo AW have LED headlights.
Only difference is normal LED or matrix IQ LED

Translation:
Headlight LED (standard)
Headlight LED Matrix (IQ.Light)


In the UK, all facelift (BZ) Polos have LED headlights but with the pre-facelift (AW) model ...
