Hi
I live in New Zealand where the local VW dealer sells parts at eye-watering prices.
I am looking for a UK on-line spare parts supplier. I use a freight forwarding service that provides a UK delivery address.

I had the local dealer download the fault codes. I need a front wheel speed sensor.

why dont you buy part from local auto parts store?
does it really have to be OEM, why not OE

Hi
I don't need OEM. OE would be OK.
The local parts suppliers (not OEM) stock a small range of parts. I have not found a wheel speed sensor.
I did a quick Google search to find the part number. No joy.

In the past I have purchased car parts from the USA. Retail plus international shipping is cheaper than local retail.
Polo's are not sold in the USA.

AliExpress + 3 months shipping.
China has many VWs.

Try 'euro car parts .co.uk ' a good source of non genuine car parts here in the UK

Hi
Thanks for the links.
I buy a lot of stuff of Aliexpress, including car parts. I don't buy safety related parts. Things like sensors etc can be factory reject parts, they work but are out of spec.

I’ve been very happy with LLL Parts (www.lllparts.co.uk). Can supply most VW parts, all OEM, at good discount to dealer prices.
