Hi Ya Josh, Must say That the web site looks sweet and have already got loads of useful knowledge about my polo GTI I've just brought about month ago. However, The car has already fallen into the VW dearlers hands (must admit expected alot more from VW than this) for the clutch and pedal box,pressure plate,clutch cable had to be replaced just like yours was, luckily it was under warranty as it was built in 2001. What Id like to know is now yours has been repaired how does the clutch feel ? and do you belive that volkswagen have rectified the flakey build quality of the original pedal box fitted and that the new one will last the life of the car. As if this was to happen again it would be a costly repair out of warranty i'm sure you would agree. Having seen that their a few common faults associated with the GTI it makes me worry about the gearbox another problem you've experienced. Can you describe the symtoms of this to me and what mileage did it go at so as i know what to look out for and can be quick to take it to the garage, hopefully still under warranty. Sorry for the long message but I'm in a slight state of shock and disappointment as you dont expect to buy a new car and suffer this kinda thing already. Anyway, would appreciate a response and look forward to talking to all rest of you polo dubbers in the future.[/b]
