Re: Fluidicjoy's Polo 6R 1.0 TSI

Are you planning on HBA in your car? Should be possible with the 7E0 BCM Max, 7E0 stalks and the correct installation. Yes sir, I seem to have developed the HBA itch :lol: . HBA seemed like a very useful feature, and plenty of rental cars in the US had the feature and it worked brilliantly. While H...

OEM Frameless Auto-Dimming Mirror

Stock IRVM Click.jpg Stock IRVM AutoDimming.jpg The Indian spec Polo 6R in its later years featured a factory fitted auto-dimming IRVM. I stumbled upon a Frameless Auto-Dimming IRVM on Ebay and picked it up at a mouth-watering price. Turns out that these come in quite a few variants with a few feat...

Polo 6R 1.0 TSI Audi Air Intake Box

2020-VW-Polo-1.0-TSI-engine.jpg The sporty nature of the EA 211 1.0 TSI is the real reason we got the ageing Polo in 2020, and it’s a real beast of an engine. It’s crazy how something so tiny makes so much power and pulls so delightfully. For those who like to appreciate what’s under the hood, the ...

Re: iichels VW Passat 2.0 TSI DSG 4-Motion 2017

You can still disable kessy for one cycle by pressing lock on the fob, and touching the door handle sensor for 'lock'. This feature has an important implication as well. It adds another layer of safety by disabling kessy temporarily, and preventing car theft. I liked this feature very much and use ...

Polo 6R A-Pillar with Tweeters

Since I had a Discover Media Head-Unit, I wanted to improve the sound signature a little bit and found a few pairs of A-pillar tweeters. It is fairly easy to find such tweeters on Aliexpress as well, and the quality of plastics is quite similar to the European ones. Multiple Tweeters Polo 6R.jpg Twe...

Re: Patil's T-roc 2020 1.5Tsi evo+Dsg7 RHD

From the combined experiences of me and a few of my friends who have purchased TPMS kits, sensors from Aliexpress, there are quite a few knockoff sensors on Aliexpress, which are nearly 1:1 in appearance to an original TPMS sensor. Replica sensors have every line of text you'd expect on an original ...

Congratulations on your car doctor! The Indium Grey is a lovely shade. Welcome to the MQB Club!
