i have reason to believe the older polo is better.

my mum has a mk4 polo 1.3 and shes had it years, prob about ten years and barely had n e problems with it. i got a mk5 1 litre and had every problem known to man so am trying to sell it now and get a bigger car.

n e ideas?

when u say hot air do u mean under the car or inside the car coming through the door seals?

if its under the car could it be from the exhaust? a hole in it somewhere?

when my engine runs it makes a tapping noise... i have been told its my tappets in the engine.....

does this make sense? if so how easy are they to change? are they a diy job or garage job? is there n e thing else i should change whilst theyre getting fixed like any seals etc.?

fitted the fuel filter the other day which was fun.... they like putting things in awkward places dont they? and today changed the water pump and auxillary belt. also noticed that 2 of my spark plug leads wernt on properly so pushed them on properly and think that might of sorted the judderign as we...

does n e one know wat the biggest engine size u can put in to a polo without doing n e work is?

i have a 2000 x reg 1 litre and was thinking of more speed. was thinking its gonna be a 1.4 16v engine. dont wanna do loads of work just the easiest engine swap possible.

if ur gonna get a polo check to see wat its had done that way u'll know wat to expect if theres n e thing else.......

hopefully today im gonna be getting my water pump changed......

does n e one know if these spoilers would fit for sure? i have a 2000 polo x reg mk5 6n2 http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/GENUINE-VW-POLO-MK-4-6N-SPOILER-NEW-IN-BOX_W0QQitemZ150368357619QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item2302a70cf3&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14 http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eB...

wat about hid's? easy to fit and a major improvement.

so wheres the polo now? is with a person or a garage?

went to gsf today and got the new fuel filter and water pump (metal one) and somehow the oem one is more expensive then the metal one..... how do they figure tha one out? or is it cause the metal one is for gsf? the fuel filter cost £5.35 excluding vat and the water pump was £15.40 excluding vat. in...

i changed my plugs the other weekend, my cars only a 1 litre, and i think it was ngk platinum silver or something like that. about £35 for the set.
