Ok... I have 2 questions already! Help!

Post by Vickie »

First thing I wanted to know was if the pins on the indicator bulbs on the polo are off set or opposite? I'm ordering chrome bulbs and they need to know but as I don't have the car yet I can't have a look - any info would be appreciated!

Also - the bloke I brought the car from told me he kept the alarm off as it drained the battery. Is this a common fault and is it easy to fix?!

Cheers guys :D

don't know about the indicators, sorry.

if you leave the car for a long period of time, then the alarm will drain the battery. If you're only doing short journeys and using lots of electronics (heater, radio, windows etc) then this will deplete the battery too.
