Hi

I have a 2000 VW polo 1.4 16v S, which I bought with 83k on the clock, after a month of driving it, clutch cable was gone.. spent 60 quid on repair, and the guys in the service warned me, that its better to buy a new clutch, because if I don't, the cable is gonna go soon again... Other than that, it seems to be alright... but I am still a bit disappointed in VW, I though they make better quality cars...

I have a VW Polo 2000 1.4s with 45000 miles on the clock.

A few weeks after buying it, it started cutting out at junctions and roundabouts etc, and the light would come on. It would then take up to 5 minutes to start it again!

I took it to a garage (not VW) and the diagnostics picked up a fault with the crankshaft position sensor. The sensor was replaced, and the car was running lovely for all of 1 week, then the problems started again! A friend of the family has a diagnostics thingy, and yet again the fault is the crankshaft position sensor??? Even though it has just been fitted with a brand new one???

What is going on? So frustrating, and I haven't got the spare cash to take it to a VW garage.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Deva.
