I think you may need these set of springs, due to the weight of the TDI engine you have.

H&R 25mm/40mm Lowering Suspension Springs
Polo 6R 1.6TDi 06/09>

Part Number: 28977-2
Front Lowering: 25mm
Rear Lowering: 40mm
Front Axle Weight: Up to 990kg
Rear Axle Weight: Up to 840kg

Hope that helps 8)

I wish I had waited for a reply I am like a kid in a sweet shop getting things for my car as I'm a newbie lol. I ordered ones with 930kg front axle load as I found info only car on the net saying that was correct. I really hope it is. If it is not correct will I not be able to use them? I don't realise what it means.

Have a read of this... Sounds a little worrying to be honest.
