UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

Well, a couple of weeks ago. 91k on the clock

It's all good, needs a service and a couple of other bits.

Fitted a FH-X840DAB. Was looking at an android one but couldn't find any solid reviews so stuck with what I know.

The info across several posts can be contradicting...
Some posts suggest that an ignition live is optional, but it wouldn't work without one for me.
The thing had no life until I fitted one (the whole thing was pretty damn simple to do) and works fine now.
Wondering why there isn't a sticky for this sort of thing? It's easy to say 'use the search feature' but believe me, that's not much help. It's from the 6n forum that I got the real help.
I don't see why some have ripped out their centre console to fit it.

Anyway, next on my list are the blower resistor, pads and discs, and the service. everything else seems in order

Hope you enjoy your Polo - they are nice little cars to drive
We have an ebay special (£20) Sony Explode in ours which works fine LOL.
I usually stick to the same make of oil filter as different manufacturers seem to use different size 'Hexes' (nuts) for removing/fitting.

Just realised we have a similarish DD Pioneer in our other car (Honda CRV) - FH-X730BT.
Quite a nice unit with decent sound

Aye, it's quite a pleasure. Not too much and not too little power, and rather easy on fuel.
If it does the job, it does the job...Mine says it supports Spotify. I'm unsure of what that means? It has Bluetooth so naturally, it should support anything played over it, no? There's no specific setting I can see for Spotify.
I just grabbed whatever from Euro Car. They had a '50% sale'. By that, I mean the oil was apparently worth £60...I don't think anyone has ever paid retail price at Euro! I just use them as they are local and always have what I need.

I don't know if there is much difference, but it is really good without being too flashy. Has that option however...I'm a bit too old for that s**t however so I have it set to quite dim.
I do like the 'mood lighting' in my girlfriends '15 golf, so may push the boat out to do something like that.
