    Hi all in this video I talk about the issues I have been facing this week and talk about a much needed break away from the car pitch. We also take a look around some new stock and few other interesting vehicles on site.

    16:35 just asking mate. My mate had a polo of that year. And he had the same issue. In the end it was a mass air flow sensor. But vw checked the one that was in it. And said its fine... 3k later.. 3k! His dad just changed it to see if it would work... And it ran lovely
    They actually won a court battle with vw over it.

    A Neighbour of mine had a Polo they bought from an Auction and it ran absolutely awful it would only do about 8 Mpg turned out it was a faulty MAF sensor even tho no code's where showing. I did exactly the same as yourselves cleaned the throttle body etc etc before I found the problem, it was an absolute pain took me all day to figure out.

    Another video full of great content 😊, regarding the polo it might be worth finding someone with vag com I had a similar problem with my vw beetle 1.8 20vale turbo I ended up replacing the throttle body but I had to use vag com to configure it to the car I also had another instance with it where it was a similar problem a few months after it ended up being a faulty maf sensor. It's nice to see some appropriation for the old rovers I was always a fan of the tom cats myself well the 200 series I still miss my old 216 and 214. Can't wait to see your progress on your metro 😀😀

    Seems like a lot of dealers are avoiding VW/AUDI these days, even the french stuff seems to be more reliable and easier to fix. We deal with a small but very busy multi drop delivery firm here, the Peugeot Citroen vans seem to go on forever but do cost an absolute fortune MOT time.
    The Caddys just keep letting folks down, just can't take the abuse if worked hard.

No codes, erc, etc. Troubleshooted a lot of things and it turned ot that the connector to the coil pack was the issue. Cleaned it and didn't fix it. Had to just cut the connector and repin and replace it by a part on ebay for under 10 quid. Ran excellent after that.

    Springs are lighter these days for better performance, thinner spring less mass to rebound so better ride and roadholding, unfortunately they break, back in the day springs hardly ever went, seized top mounts means that the spring twists rather than the mount that causes them to snap, I'm just doing one on a corsa and tbh the broken one looks fairly new.
