Surprising. Know the New Polo has many niggles like rattles and squeaks, but didn't know it had big reliability issues to get it listed so low in that part of the survey. Would like to know what these are, and why doesn't its brothers, the Ibiza and Fabia, have these problems? Or could it be these n...

There are cameras that take a nice photo of the front of the car. But I don't think they flash (the traditional way) to take the photo (maybe for safety reasons). Also some cameras don't require film... the photos are transmitted wirelessly...

The adaptor isn't for connecting different heads/connections. The adaptor is to amplify the aerial on the 9n.

I have one installed on my 9n and reception is very very good... in fact, I never knew there where so many radio stations avaliable in my area :roll:.

Felt/ Anti-rattle tape... where to buy?

Like the black furry tape that's wrapped around the audio cables to prevert them from rattling... where can I buy that felt tape (correct name?) from? anywhere online that sells it? No luck with Halfords or my local DIY stores.

Cheers.

Think I'm right in saying you'll get better reception with an adaptor. Your 9n has an amplified antenna and needs to be powered up. The VW Beta, Gamma etc. headunits do this directly, but I think few aftermarket headunits do too(?)... hence the need for an adaptor (which nicks power from the ISO blo...

Think black & white would look very 8) Maybe have the bump strips and door handles black too... and darken the rear lights. Or how about a black bonnet and boot lid/spoiler too... Stick a... P A N D A ... badge on the back (like the animal, rare and unique!). Good name for this look/car I think!...

Re: 9N - Fitting New Rear Speaker (Cables)

Here the story... Well I was wondering how I possibly put some cables in to that ISO plug for the back? Or should I cut the two wires from my head-unit to manually connect the speaker cables in. :twisted: The four female connectors and wires on the block for the rear speakers are missing on the car...

From what I've seen, the facelifts all seem to incorporate the New Golf front end or something very close. No real character between the new cars. A bit boring IMO :?.

logistix, thanks.

Does the beep come from the car door speakers or it's own speaker? and how do you turn in on and off? Cheers.

Retailer accessories - stonechip protection & parking se

Hello,

What is the stonechip protection pack (zgb 9n0 071 327)?

Also how does the parking sensor (000 054 630 g) work? is it similar to those on other cars.... black dots/sensors along the front/rear bumper and wired up to the headunit... more beeps as you get closer?

Thanks.

How to turn off synchronised mirrors?

Not sure how I turned this on in the first place. But now when I have the electric mirror joystick in the 'R' position and move the joystick, both wing mirrors will move in sync. Looked in the manual, but don't think it's very clear. How do I turn this feature off? ie. so 'R' only moves the right wi...
