    Isn't there a forum on here for the Fabia?

    The drivetrain is the same as the 6R GTI. The actual chassis/platform is more like the previous 9N2 Polo GTI.

    I directed the OP here becasue the Fabia section of the forum is verrry quiet and he wasn't getting any answers to his questions. I told him that that vRS Fabia shares the same engine/transmission etc as the current Polo GTI and he would find his answers in here more quickly.

    You should keep an eye on the oil consumption on these engines. There hasn't been any conclusive evidence on fixes but it seems running them in hard from the beginning and also not babying them afterwards (i.e. don't drive in low revs with high gear all the time) seems to help.

    It's a long thread but the later pages may contain more relevant info - Polo GTI High Oil Usage - Discussion Thread

    And check out gavs' sticky thread for more ideas on mods etc.
