Dashboard driving data
When selecting vehicle driving data from the steering wheel I'm now missing "Long term" data, instead I have "Since start". Long term data is available from the centre touch screen consol.
Is there an easy way to get this back?

Eco drive - tyres pumped up
I recently pumped the tyres up to the VW recommended higher pressures and have noticed an improvement in fuel economy. This 28 mile drive to work gave amazing fuel economy! Not a one off as I got similar today too. The 28 miles included 10 miles on country B roads, twisty and villages and the rest d...

Re: New car - defective / damaged car seat (Alcantara)
The stitching is coming away around the lumbar area of the backseat. I drive the car for 90% of time for work, I wear chinos to work (no studs, zips or the like) and during the winter months I've work jackets (they are made from soft materials). A lot of the other times I wear sport gear, all very s...

Re: New car - defective / damaged car seat (Alcantara)
The dealer who sold me the car is arranging to replace the seat cover.
The question that bothers me is what caused this (me getting in to and out of the seat?), is this a design fault or was this a bad batch? Will the passenger seat do this in the future?
Thanks for your responses.

Re: New car - defective / damaged car seat (Alcantara)
I visited a VW dealer (not the one I bought the car from) and the rep there told me it is not a manufacturing defect and has been caused by outside influence. He told me to go contact the VW dealer I bought the car off. I have since emailed the original dealer complete with photos and am waiting for...

New car - defective / damaged car seat (Alcantara)
Hi all I've owned my Polo 1.2 for 6 weeks / 2000 miles and I ordered with the Alcantara seat upgrade and the driver seat is showing this defect / damage in several areas. Has anyone else seen this kind of thing before? https://www.dropbox.com/s/lvtjj1ojrlys9kr/IMG_0112.jpg?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.c...

No, you don't lose the 2 year service plan or free insurance.

Polo Match - Underseat Drawers?
Hi
I've had my Polo Match for just over a week now and realise there are no drawers under the front seats, I thought they had them? BTW - I have the Alcantara seats option.
Can anyone advise?
Thanks!

Re: Alcantara heated seats
I wasn't aware the winter pack came with the Alcantara seats, is this true?

Re: App Connect / Apple Car Play
To be honest when you're driving a car you don't want that many distractions = too many apps.

Re: 1.0 litre SEL 110ps Massive Problems
If I test drove a car and I heard any "operation noise" not to my liking I'd say goodbye and look at another make / model of car. I would imagine 95% of their customers would do the same leaving VW bankrupt. These VW dealers are trying to fob you off, they want you to go away - I dislike p...
