Re: How important is cam belt change?

Spend the money and get the belt and waterpump changed. As mentioned, changing the belt on its own is false economy, it's not unusual for some of the internal bearings to fail and these can be picked up at the belt renewal. I'd also think having the belt changed will add value to the car when you c...

Re: Terminal 75 relay and 75x fuses not powered

£1 each if you buy 5 from here. Around £8 for delivery to europe if outside UK but the cheapest I could personally find.

Re: Changing Speedo cluster from MPH to KPH

After some reading, seems like it might be much easier swapping the plates between the two but I'll have to see when it arrives.

If I just swap the plates from MPH to KPH will it still match the real speed or does the speedo needle need to be changed etc?

Re: Changing Speedo cluster from MPH to KPH

I found this video but it's on a 2001 Toyota, do you have any idea if it would work on the polo? He does the odometer like halfway through the video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7T_z0LT7wk I also just ordered a Hex-V2 so hopefully that will be enough. All other searching has led to nowhere exce...

Changing Speedo cluster from MPH to KPH

Hi,

I'm about to buy a new speedo cluster for my Polo 6r, and I'm guessing the milage is stored in it, so when I install it my milage will be wrong? Is there any way to change the milage on it?

Re: Big Digital Speedo in KPH?

I thought if your speedo was in MPH, the cluster had to show KPH by EU law? Also adding on to this thread, if I replace my MPH speedo with a KPH one, does anyone know if it will require any re-programming or is it plug and play? My MPH cluster does show a KPH digital reading, but it is the small on...

Re: DPF Sensor

Wooo thank you! :D Finally found it.


Now, should I be concerned that one of the hoses ends right there?

DPF Sensor

Hi, I've been needing to replace my DPF sensor as my car has gone into limp mode and I have the part ( https://www.autodoc.es/bosch/665279?gshp=1&gclid=CjwKCAjw64eJBhAGEiwABr9o2GR0TF9MZYzdQ1rKYHRHHDm5ScmBlauox8cv7Yp6vesYdRLIm6QnchoCrtsQAvD_BwE ) but I have no idea where it's located on the car. ...
