2002 Volkswagen Polo SE review from UK and Ireland
"A car that I love, that drives like a Jaguar"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I got my Polo I had the Engine Management light coming a month later. I took it to Volkswagen for an Engine Diagnostics check and they found out the fuel injector no 4 was faulty, but they didn't replace it up until today, when, after a series of taking the car back and fourth, I eventually had fuel injector number 4 & ignition coils replaced and the car has been perfect ever since.
But also asked for the 'Air Flow Meter' to be checked as this can't be detected in the Engine Diagnostics.
General comments?
My Polo has been a very nice car to own as a first car with good handling control, and a sweet car to have (when all problems are corrected). It's big enough for me, and it handles the motorway with ease.
I'm happy with this car.
