  • The Polo Had An Intermittent Fault On The Starter Motor, So It Was Time To Replace The Unit.
    I wanted to Completely strip down the old starter to show all the components and common issues.
    I show how to carry out volt drop tests to diagnose fault.
    This Polo was a 1.2 petrol 2010 model.

    Brilliant video - thanks so much aaanton11. You gave me the detail and confidence needed to replace my broken VW Polo 2007 1.4 SE TDI starter motor. So grateful. Replaced it with a £60 (off ebay) reconditioned Bosch starter that fired up first time! Probably took me at least 10 times longer than you took to do the job, but it was good fun, I have never dared do anything like this before. You have saved me probably £150-200 in garage labour costs and I am so grateful. Promise I will at least send you a beer.

    Great video which correctly shows that gear selector must be moved out the way to get the top bolt out. Haynes manual misses that out.

      Interestingly on my VW Polo 2007 1.4 SE TDI did not need to do this, the gear selector already had sufficient clearance so didn't need to do any loosening of the selector bolt/nut to move it upwards

    The top one is a stud not a bolt, the nut is meant to come off without the leaving the stud in place!! Good luck with that after 15 years lol
