UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

Hi. I have recently been trying to track my car and made a slight bodge up. Turns out I need a new track rod end. Can get it fitted, so really need to get the part sepearately rather than getting ripped by VW dealers. Any ideas where i could get one? VAG?

Steering Part Needed.

Hi. Spent today putting my polo back to stock, by removing alloys, coilovers etc, and when i had installed original suspension, the wheels were on an angle and not even pointing straight so i began messing about with it a bit. Actually undid all of the steering to extend the ...

Hey. E-mail me at [email protected]. I did pay about £600.00 for wheels and tyres. Make me an offer and we will go from there.

Hey all.

Am selling full set of 15' schmidt modern line alloys. Only been on my car about 2 weeks. Come in fantastic, almost as new condition, with 4 Goodyear f1 eagle 195/45/15 tyres (also only used 2 weeks). Absolutely no curb marks or scratches.

Wheels are mint, give the ultimate deep dished ...

Yeh i admit it was stupid of me. Just that i love the deep dish wheels and was struggling at finding any so really jumped at the first set i could get my hands on.

Does anyone know of any dealers or websites or even european (german) companies that sell the deep dish wheels and any reccomendations ...

Yeh thats right. I am lowered quite a bit more than 50mm so am experiencing the rubbing.

Are there many euro deep dish wheels out there which wont rub when slammed?

Hey guys, have a little dilemma.

As some of you may know i have recently purchased the Schmidt Modern Line 8"*15" alloys for my 6n2 polo. I have coilovers and have slammed it and to be quite honest it looks great. I get so many looks and compliments.

However i have experienced some quite chronic ...

No it is on, when the car is hot. When i then leave it off for about 20 mins the car drives as normal and the EPC light remains off, until it gets hot when the light comes on and i cannot exceed 3000 revs (approx)

However i have been driving it this afternoon without reviing up much and the car has ...

Today I was driving my car and the EPC light came ON, and the car doesnt seem to go above 3000 revs. When it does it simple bogs down and seems to stall, so i simply select a higher gear and its ok.

Almost impossible to drive, as i have to select about 3rd gear to pull away.

Any reasons or is it ...

Have removed the arch lining but there is still rubbing at the rear. Are there any thngs i can do myself to modify the arches or is it going to need professionally doing?

Been quoted £200 - £400 from my local bodyshops to sort my arches out, however after looking at them closer I can see that it just simply seems to be rubbing on the back lining which seems to be removable by undoin a few screws. Is this reccomended?

So where abouts do i get my arches rolled?

U alright guys. Just have had my schmidt 8 x 15 alloys (with 195/45/15) wheels fitted and balanced and there looking awesome. (will post pics soon)

I have some coilovers but am restricted lowering wise due to the wheel rubbing in the arch when going round corners and when hitting bumps in the road ...

Cheers for your responses guys. Rang round a few places and found a local tyre fitter who can fit them so its all go. I will post some pics of my car when its done, hopefully this weekend.
