To conclude this thread. Turns out the pump had packed up. It was a bit of a pig to get at, the last nut being pretty inaccessible, but actually changing the pump was straightforward. New pump £90 from Vw, local 'factor had one in stock, £14. Job done, in the rain but now we can see where we going !

Just about to refill the coolant on 2018 Polo 1.0L. According to Halfords it should be G40 then I spot on the expansion tank G13. Will G40 do ?

I'm fairly sure I've seen this on the Forum previously but can't find it now. We have a 2018 Polo and the washers have stopped working, fluid topped up. The handbook does not show fuse position and I can't see any diagram on the lids. Does anyone know which fuse it is or where I can find a clear diagram ?

Ok old post resurrected but which is the better scanned , Autel or Foxwell ?

Does anyone know coolant capacity of 1.0 L 2018 Polo. Handbook does not say, but is at pains to warn me not to overfill ! Also, the G40 coolant is available ready mixed from Halfords. Do I assume it has the required distilled water and does it really have to be distilled ? Thanks

Don't know if they cover Vw but I use a site called CalVIN for Landrover chassis enquiries. But you could just try your local Vw dealer. I collected some parts for my Daughters Polo and ask them to confirm engine size as some ViN searches had it listed as a 1.2. They gave me a 3 page print out of the vehicle build details.

Thanks. I am keeping it at the top of the lower indent for now. It was serviced by VW last year, so was thinking of asking them. But I fear they will say bring it in then charge for the experience.

Hi all My daughter has a 2018 Polo listed as 999CC. I want to know where the level indicator is on the dipstick. There are two indents on the dipstick at about 1 and 3 cm's then a plastic 'pip' about 5Cm further up. Car isn't here to photograph so attached is my best Take Hart attempt ! PoloDipstick.pdf

Hi, My Daughter also has a Polo from 2018, although it has never done an Emergency stop, the Driver assist has slowed it down for no apparent reason. I paid for my own diagnostic test at a small independent but no faults were logged. Let us know how you get on.
