Re: Polo AW Photo Gallery
How I would love to have an enclosed covered space like above for washing and detailing. Paintwork looks fabulous like red Chrome !

Re: Polo Blue GT (6C) washer level sensor
Thanks llchel, not wishing to question your vast experience but are you sure, as my local VW dealer tells me it's moulded in as part of the complete washer bottle and only replaceable as part of the complete assembly (which if true seems a really stupid idea !) I must admit when I looked at it in th...

Polo Blue GT (6C) washer level sensor
HI all. We've been having a constant issue on the wife's 2016 Blue GT (6C) with the low washer sensor going off even when the washer bottle is full. Sometimes it sorts itself out after a few seconds, other times it stays on permanently. I purchased what I thought was the correct level sensor some ti...

Xenon to LED upgrade ?
Does anyone know if a 2016 Polo Blue GT fitted with the factory option Bi-Xenon headlights, are able to be retrofitted with the GTI models LED units easily, or will it be a pain ?

Washer bottle level sensor
Hi guys,my wife’s car, a 2016 Polo 6C Blue GT DSG, has developed a problem where the dash is saying that she needs washer fluid, even though the bottle is fully topped up. I’m guessing it’s a faulty level sensor in the reservoir that resides in the right side wheel arch. Dowse anyone know if these s...

Re: Android Auto Vs Tech Edition infotainment
Never heard of "Maps and Navigation" ? I use Android Auto all the time (in my MK7.5 Golf GTI) and I have 3 Navigation apps available. My default - Google Maps, then Waze (also owned by google), and I'm now trialling TomTom AmiGo (which looks pretty good). All 3 of these beats the built in ...

Polo 6c Blue GT - Timing Belt
Hi Guys, My wife's Polo Blue GT (6c - 2016 model with the 150ps engine) is coming up to 5 years old. Does anyone know if these units use timing belts or chains and if belt, what the recommended replacement interval is please ? Also, what would we be looking at from a main dealer for replacement pric...

Polo Blue GT Trim and Foglights
Clearing out the garage, and came across these left over from the wife's 1st Polo Blue GT (6R), which I'd retrofitted to her car then removed before selling. Her replacement Blue GT (6C), already had these fitted so these were surplus then forgotten about in the garage roof. All parts collection onl...

Re: BlueGT MPG
I drove the wife's the other day to work (DSG). The route was though a busy town with a fair bit of stop / start and traffic lights etc. For the 8 mile journey it got 44mpg. The journey home was on the motorway (so about 12 miles), taking it easy at around 65mph on the motorway (as it had just had p...

Re: Car Keyed !!
I went to work in the Wife's little Polo Blue GT (DSG), yesterday as it was keyed all down one side some weeks ago and yesterday the guy I know, who I trusted to do the repair came to our business and did it in the car park under a makeshift "tent" spray booth (fantastic job BTW considerin...

Car Keyed !!
Had the wife ring me in tears last night when she got back to her car after work. Her pride and joy (our mint Polo Blue GT in Blue Silk metallic) has been keyed. She said she felt sick. She's absolutely heart broken. Not just a little bit, on the off side from just behind the headlight right down th...

White - foglight bulb for Polo Blue GT (6C - 2016)
Hi all, looking for recommendations for a set of replacement bulbs for the front foglight's for my Wife's Polo Blue GT - which is a 2016 6C model. I only noticed when she was reversing the other day how yellow the standard foglight bulbs were in comparison to the whiter lights from her stock Xenon's...

Polo Blue GT front Grill
Hi all, I know this is probably a strange question, but on my wife's last Polo Blue GT (a 2013 model), we changed the lower front slatted grill for the GTI one (as the wife preferred it) - see below https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7356/10799833654_7d040a80cd_c.jpg However on her second Blue GT (a 201...

Re: GTI newb question
Well.....as you have posted your question in the "new" MK8 VW Polo section, then it won't be a concern as the chances of finding a new one let alone a second-hand one are nigh on impossible at the moment :lol: In all seriousness, whist the wife and I now drive DSG models, we did for a time...

Re: New Polo GTI+
Well, I think I may have answered my own question with regards Beat Audio with a spare wheel on the GTI. Found a few Video's on youtube and managed to extract a few stills. It shows a GTI (with the battery in the boot) and the beats Audio Subwoofer, which unlike the Dynaudio one in the Golf, Tiguan ...
