2002 Volkswagen Polo SE review from UK and Ireland
"Good - apart from now being terrifying!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The car has now completely lost all power whilst driving at 70 mph - a total electrical shutdown, which is dangerous and frightening. When the ignition is tried again the car restarts. The dealership cannot find a fault with computerised diagnostic testing. I would be interested to hear of others who have experienced this fault.
