UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

Hi all

I have a warning light triangle pop up for a short time yesterday .. mentioned it here in the forum viewtopic.php?f=71&t=76450&p=583503#p583503

Didn't want to mess that post up so posting my question here as a suggestion was to get myself an OBDII scanner and not pay more than £10.. I know you can always pay more for more functions (OBD Eleven?) I'd just like to know if i can detect what the Triangle warning was for.. as it went off and there was no message in the instrument display.

I guess many here will have already purchased one.. I just want one that works well with a Polo 2019.

Any recommendations? thanks

Hi there

I use Carista which has a few mods you can do on the Polo and also diagnose faults which you can clear. If memory serves me right you get a months free pro use on purchase but it is more than £10 to buy. You can purchase weekly or yearly pro use as well.
Found one on ebay for £16.95 if you do a search on there I'm sure there will be other prices.

That's useful information, thanks

I'm guessing you only pay for the Pro app?

I'm going to do some reading..

Yes thats right. Carista have re-priced pro app used to get a week for £9.99 now it is a month and you now get a 3 month 1 year and lifetime option.
First month is free on purchase which is enough time to do most of what you would want to do
