I'm upgrading to something a little (well a lot) bigger and it's time for my pride and joy to go to a new home.
I'm the second owner and have fastidiously maintained the car and upgraded just a...
Hi Guys,
The family has grown (again) and my Polo GTI just doesn't cut it size wise anymore. So I've put it up for sale.
I'm the second owner and have had the car for about 5 years / 40,000km....
These had done roughly 65,000km when removed.

$50 near Doncaster in Melbourne.
I've got a new R8 coil pack adapter kit to suit a 1.4TSI engine (Golf Tsi, Polo Gti etc) along with new NGK R8 coil packs. Full details of the applications for this kit can be seen here.
These...

Yes, it's all inclusive for labor. I should also mention I'm in Melbourne.
Has anyone had an LSD installed into their DSG?
I'm looking for a workshop that's competitively priced and knows what they are doing. Apparently it's a rather complex job to swap out the open...
I'm using a KW902 (ELM327) Bluetooth dongle connected to a Google Pixel 2 running Torque OBD.
I haven't experienced any limp mode issues, well as far as I can tell. I don't have a permanent boost gauge, I usually just run one on a mobile connected via OBD and see a max of 24psi.
I'm curious, have you run standard plugs on the stage 2 tune?
That's some serious turbo play [emoji15]
I'm guessing the fuel economy savings come from running a Polo vs a Golf? DSG too.
My bad, I meant BKR7EIX.
Before I'd get 7-9lt for semi spirited driving around town. And down to 6-7 for highway driving. This was with the stage 2 tune.
It's 10-14 around town now. Actually...
No worries! I'm still getting high fuel consumption on the BKR8EIX so I'm going to try some other plug options. How's fuel economy under normal driving conditions for yours?
For anyone that's interested I was chasing down high fuel consumption issues and thought it might be my NGK R8 coil packs so I swapped back to my factory coil packs with a surprising result... They...
I went for the R8 coils to solve misfiring issues under full load with an APR stage 2 tune.
I'm curious, what is motivating you guys to look at different coils? Are you running a different tune?
R8 coils use a different wiring configuration to the standard 1.4Tsi coils so you'd likely still have to change that even if the coil packs are modified to be shorter. It's actually really easy with...
The part number is 1J0907660F and from what I can gather online it also acts as a temperature sensor.
Does anyone know the location of the oil temperature sensor? Is it integrated into the oil level sensor on the base of the engine or is it a seperate sensor (resistance type bolt)?
I've getting...
Cool, I'll check that against my scan tool.
I've actually got a feeling that it's stuck in a permanent cold start (non-mapped?!) mode at the moment due to the faulty oil temperature signals.
Not sure of the AFR's, high I'm guessing! I'll plug a scan tool and check it. Performance is actually better than what it was too [emoji15] smoother.
I run BP 98, so no change there.
I'm currently running a fairly modded Polo 6R Gti with an APR stage 2, intercooler, exhaust, intake and R8 coils w/ NGK BKR7EIX plugs (the latest addition).
Since adding the coils my fuel economy...
So I've been scouring the internet to try and see what's causing my high fuel consumption of 10lt per 100km constant average.
I'm currently running an APR Stage 2 tune, exhaust, intake,...
Been a reader for a long time, stuck on a tech issue and now I'm a poster!
I drive a 2012 Polo 6R Gti with an APR tune.
