Hi guys, hoping you can help. I've got a 51 plate Polo 6N2 GTi with around 58k on the clock. Got a problem with the engine overheating intermittently with the overflow tank boiling/steaming and spewing out coolant.

Hello. My 'Engine Check' light is on, on my GTi 6N2 dash. I've got really bad performance with lots of juddering while under acceleration and when idle.

Ask Gareth at Diamond Shine. http://www.dsvs.co.uk/ I got a quote from him before for a polished lip and black centres. I've copied his response below. --- Hi Nick, For a polished rim and black center would be £320 but I'll do it for £300 for a set of 4. As for removing the tyre all that is needed...

How do I remove the tailgate cover if I cannot open the boot? Is it a fairly simple procedure. Think it might be a bit beyond me. :(

Not sure about other cars but make sure you can get the same part no as yours if possible and also make sure the PIN allocation on the pump is the same. If yours is 8, a 12-pin pump won't work.
