New Polo problems - Register

Should get an APR chip and put it into valet mode when you get home

I wonder if the polo has that locked away in it's brain somewhere, my Gf's 207 has it, damn it's annoying when you engage it!!

Sisters polo has the following problems.
Climate control doesn't work. Fuel gauge doesn't work. Brakes arE squeaky even after giving them a good clean.
That's all ATM but not very impressed to say the least. Cars booked in some time this week. I'll let u know how it all goes

Did those with the reversing uphill problem end up getting it sorted out? That one had me worried...

I've been driving my 77TSI for 4 months now and 5000kms and the only problem I have/noticed is the rattle in the engine compartment when engine is idling.

Still need to get the rattle fixed :S

Guys i received the car a couple weeks ago.

Now i have noticed when the car is driving slowly or under load this clunking noise keeps happening. The noise seems to be coming from the passengers side...

I am so disappointed with the GTI polo. I love the car when things are going well but i have had one too many problems with it since purchase.

I dont want to mention the dealer yet until i know what they will do to fix my issue.

My first exprience buying a VW and i am so disappointed!!!!

Off to the dealer for a new (warranty) one

More engine rattles (at idle). Bloody thing sounds like a diesel. Also, passenger sun visor does not stay in position when pushed all the way forward. AND, rear window washer dribbles for hours after being used.
