First off your polo sounds no different to mine, With the exception of an air bag and electric windows. I've tried numerous things to make it run better. Your throttle body is based under your air box. unclip the hose leading to the box, and there are 4 screws that hold the air box ontop of the TB, they're also numberd. Removed the vaccum pipes from under the airbox (if it has any) and there should be your TB staring stright at you. While its off, give your TB a good clean, use a rag and some carb cleaner. You want the external diameter for the fitting of hose to the TB.
Hope this helps.
