Re: We Connect Go discontinued

well... That was short and sweet (not!) We had a great internet connected heating system controller; you could alter the scheduled times at will and turn on or off if your work/holiday changed. Then, as with, you we had an email out of the blue saying they were discontinuing our internet app and fun...

Re: 2020 Polo Beats Bonnet Decal Peeling Off

is the underlying black strip secure?

Re: Something has changed with Android Auto

ps

I'm also wondering why the car is looking for my phone 'at all'... Data and Bluetooth were all off..

Another paradox :?

Re: Fuel consumption

This seems a common thread... I had what i considered a very economical Polo 1.4 TDi (9N3) for 15 years and when it came to changing it I didn't want another diesel and expected lower mpg with this 95 Polo 2019 1.0 TSi.... it was not lower mpg even initially after buying it. I'll clarify that statem...

Re: Service plan opinions

if only we had a crystal ball... LOL all insurances are great when you claim successfully and an expense when you don't. I have little confidence in my local VW dealership.. with this car or the previous 9N3. I have a local indy who gets in a VW trained mechanic for stuff he can't/doesn't want to do...

Re: Demisting

There are no silly questions or wasting time posts, Pete

Often forget that too😂

Re: Demisting

My lowly 1.0 seems to work quite quickly with the mirrors demisting.. the inside can mist up quickly too though .. if we get in the car and drive of straightaway i often have to stop and let it clear .. It does clear reasonably quickly with AC but am amazed at the moisture thrown up so quickly in th...

Re: anyone tried LED interior replacement lamps?

well.. the LEDs arrived labelled for each function/lamp and got it all done inc the trunk/hatch. Not as simple as it looked... the hatch light came out easily but the bulb is not accessible without prising the metal shroud off! The metal is very thin it bends easily so be careful.. Screenshot 2023-1...

Re: DSG sticking in 2nd gear

I can see why this experience would put someone off that mode r anything with a DSG gearbox forever and wouldn't blame anyone to go completely rogue. However i know of other makes/models with similar stories... a little Peugeot of a friend handed over her brand new car by a salesman who 'didn't have...
