Hi Guys, Had a problem with the temperature gauge on my car ever since I have owned in. It is a 2000 Lupo 1.4s 75 bhp. When I am driving along the gauge would just drop from the middle (cannot remember the number) to the bottom..usually when this happens I get some funny smell in the car. The engine is still hot, it seems like a loose connection or something. Any suggestions? I have read about dodgy temperature senders, could this be the problem? Also instructions for fixing would be good too Thanks, Irfan

Hi Guys, Thought it would only be right to spread the word, I cam from Club Polo to begin with..I bet I am not the only one! Anyway this is just a heads up really, dates have been confirmed etc so start making your convoys! http://www.clubpolo.co.uk/forum/index.php?showtopic=137344 Sorry if this is not allowed or has already been mentioned. Cheers, Irfan Forgot to add the link!

Hi Guys, As above, when you fit coilovers what do you transfer for the stock Lupo ones to the coilies (most likely PhilJ's)? I have read about top mounts but not much else, can anybody comfirm a list please? Thanks, Irfan

Thinking of getting a 1999 lupo 1.4 s but engines noisy?
akbarirfan replied to ttmw's topic in Volkswagen Lupo
yeh my 1.4s is noisy too! -
Why not use the adjusters? Are those the things prone to siezing if not oil and waxed etc...

What after market exhaust options are there for a 1.4 Lupo?
akbarirfan replied to akbarirfan's topic in Tuning
Their prices seem good mate, but they are quite far to be honest! Anybody try MIJ Performance in Walsall? http://www.mijperformance.com/ Cheers. -

akbarirfan replied to akbarirfan's topic in Tuning
Haha! Are you going to use a 6N2 manifold and bend it? I have not seen any specifically made for the Lupo apart from GTI ones I think.. -

akbarirfan replied to akbarirfan's topic in Tuning
Ahh cool! Get some pics up of the hidden exhaust...if its not too hidden! hehe I am more interested in the sound and airflow..so if you can make a video that would be great. Cheers! -
How long do you ahve to hold the hair drier over the section you are lifting? Tried it on my polo before and it never heated up! What should you notice when it is ready to pull it off? Is there a smell or nay visual elements? Thanks!

Cannot seem to find any! Looking for something that is not centre exit, can be hidden.. Thanks.
