Its probably the headlight levelling, as thats on the cars bus. Id suggest you look down that route

No relay for the locks, just fuses. Not to say you havent got a bad loom in the drivers door, as these often break on the hinge

The 1.2 3 cylinder is known for its timing chain issues. I'd suggest you get this checked as a matter of urgency, and avoid trying to start it again till then

What engine do you have?

Take a look at VW Heritage

There is no pollen filter on these - its too old to have one. This didn't become standard till the 6N in 1994

Also, wrong oil. You need 10W40 semi synthetic.

Pick up some new spark plugs instead and change those New dizzy cap and rotor wouldn't go a miss either.

Glad I could help

How it looks by itself

Ok, found it. The diagram only shows so much, as is usual with ETKA - they only show one variant where there are many closely related parts. Its part 31 in fact - the retaining plate 6Q6827601F - £60 from VW Or... Buy a handle here and transfer it (the whole retaining plate) to your handle https://w...

The 1.0 isn't a performance engine - you'll be hard pushed to get it past 100km/ph

I see it now, its actually part of the lock cylinder housing Its part 8 on the diagram - its £198, and has to be ordered with the chassis number so its pinned to the car. There is a £94 option also, but that'll mean a new key for your boot lock. looks like this https://file.euroauto.ru/v2/file/parts...

Where does the metal rod attach to higher up?
The actuator is part 33, but im trying to work out what the metal rod the plastic lever is pushing. Can you get another photo?

have you got an aftermarket radio fitted?

Looking good!

Yuck! Thinners perhaps then but they can do major damage. Very strange to do that in the first place

How very strange. Does it come off easily?
