... the pedal box issue affects Mk 6 & Mk 7 polos???

I've owned both a mk 4 & mk 5 and it happened to both of them. I'm planning on buying a new car soon and trying to decide whether to consider a polo again.....

any idea which fuse? lol

Hi, today i've been having a couple of problems - i wonder if anyone has any ideas.

Any ideas what the ...
