CANT TURN ME POLO OFF

Post by manthony »

I have a 2006 year 3 cylinder petrol polo 57k miles. The engine management light stays on, ( yellow symbol right hand clock) and additionaly its possible to turn the key to the off position; remove the key and the engine carries on running. The only way I can stop it is to 1/ stall the car with the clutch. 2/ rev the engine gently, let it return to tick over and after about fifteen seconds it stops. Any body got any ideas.
