Rear arm rest 9N

My rear arm rest is stuck. It will fold up but it won't fold all the way down. I think its a simple case of removing it and re-inserting it correctly but its not immediately obvious how to remove it.

Has anyone got any tips on how to do it? The haynes manual is not very clear. Thanks!

Re: Rubber grommet/gasket around ignition lock 9n

Wow, thanks. Didn't expect such a quick reply. I suppose my next question is where can I get one. A quick look on the web only brings up German or (strangely) Russian websites.

Any pointers? Thanks.

Rubber grommet/gasket around ignition lock 9n

Hi All,

The rubber grommet/gasket around my ignition lock has perished and also has a hole in when someone stabbed it blindly with the key. I want to replace it but I dont even know what the part is called or the part number (google is coming up dry).

Any idea?

Many Thanks,

Re: 9n Steering feels funny after spring and wheel change.

I took the car to a wheel and tyre company and the tracking was really knocked off so after setting it correct and two new front tires it feels as good as new. cheers.

Re: Parcel shelf strap peg

I had the same problem when I bought my polo. In the end I spent £20 buying the complete bit of trim with the pegs on second hand and then swapping the whole thing. Only took about 30mins but very satisfying afterward!

9n Steering feels funny after spring and wheel change.

Hi There,

I've got a standard 9n with no mods and recently upgraded from standard steel wheels to the 16" VW Barcelona's that were an optional extra. Straight after I took it to the garage to get a service and MOT so didn't really have a change to feel what the new wheels were like. I was then ...
