Re: Polo lowering springs
Got the official Ebach lowering springs from VW 25 - 30mm see pictures below for before and after.... Pros Looks a hell of a lot better, Doesnt roll when going into bends, no spring under accel, The driving position feels a lot sportier because of the change in geometry. Cons if like me you live in ...

Retrofitting polo 6c gti
Those are are aftermarket lights which I happen to have too. That unit takes H7 bulbs, so to answer your question you buy the headlights off of eBay and then you buy some LED lights to fit A H7 bulb socket. But this is all aftermarket. If you have a polo GTi 6C then you should already have LED headl...

Re: Does anyone know...?
As others have stated 1.4 blue GT is the only polo with ACT and it's a four cylinder. All polos have one white reversing light and one red fog light on the opposite side.

Re: POLO 6R 1.2 TSI R Line 2014 MultiFunctional Steering Wheel Upgrade
Ah of course, You Drive a 6C Correct so the buttons are exactly the same as the GTi steering wheel with cruise control I was just wondering if I could change it without coding, mine is a 6C and the steering wheel is a 6C that I have sourced, just prefer the GTi style one Sent from my iPhone using T...

Re: Fuel Mileage
Just to follow on 3rd tank of nitro+ range is up to 335 miles the highest yet since getting the car. During this period there was quite a bit of spirited driving including sports mode so I cant really see how the car takes driving style into that calculation as it should be less not more. Either way...

Just to follow on, I have the standard new style VW steering wheel polo 6C 2016 https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170323/70c640c58a7b49fc61789bb1dddb1cfd.jpg Would I be able to change to the R Line GTI polo from a 6C 2016 style without recoding? https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170323/dc4e7a42b0a...

110 TSI R Linepotential purchase
I agree with d-ash, as an owner of the new 4 cylinder 1.2 TSI i can say out of the bunch its my favourite. Might only be 90PS but with the turbo certainly doesnt feel it, I used to have a 1.6 naturally aspirated in another make of vehicle and it would blow it out of the water.. The lowdown torque ma...

Instrument cluster swap Polo 6C
Hi guys this is a nice simple question. I want to change my instrument cluster on my 1.2 polo match 6C. Reason being Volkswagen ship some of their polos with 20mph increments with mph and kph, which for us guys in the UK especially in london, is pretty useless as it misses out some of the most impor...

Re: Fuel Mileage
Iirc the Tank size is the same on all polo's. As for your fuel change and fuel use I would be using Vpower or Momentum every fill up to notice a difference not just once occasionally not saying that you are but from what I'm reading you have used it once? As said many other factors to consider with...

Re: Fuel Mileage
Other factors that could affect fuel consumption from one tankful of fuel to another are (not an exhaustive list - there may be other factors); -journey types; the OP hasn't said whether or not the driving was undertaken on the same route for both the lower and higher octane fuels. - driving style....

Re: Fuel Mileage
The fuel mileage is calculated from the average MPG the trip computer is showing (I think anyway), so if you've done a lower then usual journey you appear to have less mileage. Please correct me if I'm wrong. For the record I have a 1.4 Petrol and always full up to the top, I usually get 330 miles....
