I can’t find anything to say that it’s ever been done.
I’ve had the car 2 years now so just going to get it done.
Rather be safe than sorry

Re: Timing belt or chain?
Where would I find the engine code please?
And it’s diesel so guessing it’s a belt then. Looks like I’m forking out to get it changed then
Thanks

Re: High pitched noise
Turns out it was one of the shoes on the back. It was badly worn down so I had to have both replaced

Re: High pitched noise
I think it sounds like it’s coming from the front, possibly one of the wheels. It’s progressively got worse over the last week

High pitched noise

Recently been MOT’d and service. Pads, discs and front tyres were replaced last year. Any ideas? Thank...

Although I am a woman I can do some bits on cars 🤣 If you have a torx T30, and a bit of umf to uscrew 4 bolts you can. And also oven cleaner, ps gloves an...

Re: EGR Fault but car drives fine
It’s in for MOT next week and I’m able to turn the EML off and it stays off for a couple of days so hopefully it’ll passCarbonChaos wrote: ↑Tue Feb 16, 2021 11:15 pm If your EML is on this will be an m.o.t failure and may also be affecting the emissions

Re: Washer Pump Not Working
Mine stopped working yesterday and I replaced the fuse and it worked.
My polo is 2012 1.2 and it was fuse 17 for me, 7.5 fuse

When I got this looked at I was told it was a fault with the EGR. Since then the light has now stayed on and it has been on for the last few months however my car st...
