Hello all, First off, I know this has been posted lots before but honestly the information seems so scattered and varied and I'm not sure how applicable all of it is to my situation so I'm sorry for reposting this...please don't murder me Anyway I've come into the possesion of a 6n2 GTI engine block from a local vw dismantlers. My little (AUC) 1.0 litre has s*** the bed so I planned to do an engine swap anyway but then I got this engine for basically nothing. I know the best way to do this is to buy a complete Polo GTI that's been rear ended or something and begin swapping everything over but I don't want to buy one that's already sold some essential parts I need. So from my understanding this is what I need now from another polo with the same engine code as the one I have (AVY) Gearboxengine loominterior loomECUradiatorfuel pumpfront hubs/carriers/calipers/discsand the ignition barrel. Is there anything else?How does the AVY fit onto the AUC Engine mounts, I think I read somewhere new mounts will need to be made am I right?And also are any of these parts interchangeable between GTI polos and GTI lupos, just in case I can't find the part on a polo maybe I could use the GTI lupos. I've found lots of posts and some even talking about guides for this sort of thing but none linking to them and I can't seem to find it through the search on this forum (Probably because I'm not a huge forum user but still...) Any help would greatly appreciated. Cheers!Thanks so much!

Hello All. I am fairly new to Lupo ownership. I was in need of a daily driver with a bit of space in the back, and having always liked the look of the Lupo, decided I had to have it when I found one at the back of a second hand car dealers lot in Oxford. It is a silver GTI with the six speed 02U gearbox. It appeared to be a very original car with only a small ding on a front wing. It was obvious that some other work was needed as there were warning lamps lighting up all over the dash and the charging circuit was not working. In addition it was due for a cambelt change and the gearbox crunches on third gear. When I list it all like that I wonder why I bought it! Perhaps, foolishly, these problems I regard as challenges and the car looked so good and drove so well I thought I should have it at the reasonable price asked. The charging circuit required a new alternator as the existing one was damaged by oil contamination. Sloppy overfilling of the oil at some time. The cam change was fairly easy once the correct tool was bought to hold the crank. I tried all sorts of ways suggested on this site and other places and none worked for me, so went and bought the tool. Still cheaper than getting it done at a garage. Some of the electrical problems were caused by blown fuses and a faulty heater in the crank case breather. I found that problem shown on this site and as the symptoms were so similar I thought it worth checking. Spot on. The remote locking was not working. I tried all sorts of reset ways suggested but nothing worked. Suddenly it started working, but now it has stopped again, so I do not know about that. Occasionally the alarm goes off, but not for a while, touch wood. Unlock the car and get in and then, what a racket! I have tried all sorts of things to try and turn it off, and it does eventually, but I am not sure if I have contributed to it. For a while all the warning lamps did not light, but the airbag one is now alight but that may be due to a plug coming out somewhere someone has suggested. Just not sure where it might be. Owe, I forgot, there is an electrical problem in the drivers door as sometimes the window goes down of it’s own accord. Press the button to send it up ... buzz and up it goes and as soon as you take your finger off the button. ... click .. and down it goes again. It is drivable with the gearbox problem. Just take it slower into 3rd, or miss it out. I did budget in the cost of a replacement box, but have as yet sorted out who to do it. I live in Abingdon near Oxford, so if anyone can offer any advice, please do. I will be keeping the car fairly standard, but am fitting a double din unit with twin rear cameras and a video recording system. All removable if I ever sell it and the new owner wants it boggers. The GTI is a great looking car that goes better than I need and is so rare in the UK that I feel it does not need any extra to stand out.

Hi all, Had my GTI for a few years now but never got around to sorting this issue out, its not had any mods to it standard everywhere. The rear wheels rub on the inside of the wells, due to the less than great cornering offered on stock i can go through rear tires quite quickly. Does anyone know what my different options are and how it would help? I've come across rolling the arches but I can't see how that would help the rubbing on the inside? Any help appreciated.

I've got the clocks in and the car turns on and the revs go up There is however a few warning lights on the dials that don't shift Can I clear these through vcds or equivalent scanner. How can I get the milage corrected from the 100k to my 160k milage. Would love this all to be functional as I would like the mpg meter to work Currently got the chrome covers sat over my old clocks

Looking for a Lupo GTI gearbox. Preferably 6speed, but would consider a 5 Wanting one ready to fit with not too high mileage and smooth changes. Cheers

Doing the conversion from drums to discs... Does anyone happen to know if the GTI has handbrake return springs that sit on the rear of the calliper? Thanks, Sergio.

Hello I have 2 lupo Gti gearboxes for sale: 5 Speed (mileage unknown), was sold to me working but I never fitted it so I can’t guarantee this. £70 6 speed (2002 – 99800 miles), gear change was smooth but it did start to make a noise when in 2nd/3rd gear. The garage believed it might be a differential issue, so would need reconditioning. £100 The collection is in Banbury Oxfordshire, if you would like to arrange a courier that’s up to you but I imagine that it will be very expensive due to weight. If you would like both I will do them for £150

i was wondering is there a way i could take the power steering off of my gti and buy a manual rack of a old lupo? would it be a direct bolt on job? i think it should be as there are the same shell??? cheers.

Hi I have owned this car for just over two months now and I can't fault it its a great car!- nippy, sticks to the road, responsive... But I need something bigger, as much as I love small VWs. It's done 94k miles, it's got MOT till December, it's completely standard apart from a backbox delete so the exhaust is a bit louder (sounds good). Body work and paint is good condition apart from a scuff on the front bumper. Interior is good for the age and I've got stacks of history for it. The top end was rebuilt 10-12k miles ago with new valve seats, valves, head gasket, timing belts etc. (So engine drives spot on, gearbox is good too! (This is the 5 speed model). Since owning it I've replaced both drivers side window switches, drivers door lock mechanism, front pads and discs, oil and filter change, air filter, got the tracking done and spent a lot of time polishing the car. All in all it is a great car but I do need something bigger for work and sadly can't afford to run two cars at the moment. Car is fully hpi and accident clear etc. I am looking for £3200 for the car and it is located in Torquay (South Devon). Feel free to message me for any questions you have about the car, cheers.

My beloved GTi is struggling a bit getting it's drivers side headlight turned on! When the lights are turned on, all 4 fronts light up, but the drivers side xenon flickers on and off full brightness before turning off after about 10s. I have a suspicion it's the (rather expensive) ballast that's causing the problem, but wondered if anyone else has had a similar issue? My battery hasn't been overly happy recently, but given regular usage it seems to charge fine and the battery issues predate the light problem. Any help would be much appreciated!!

Hi everyone, i have been offered a 5 speed lupo GTI for a good price and the only problem is the 5 speed gearbox has a whine in 3rd. i have been looking at reconditioned gearboxes and was wondering if it is possible to put the 6 speed gearbox on? And if so what else would have to be changed such as gear linkages? and will it work with the current ecu? i have searched on the forum for this question and haven't been able to find a definitive answer. i know the 6 speed lupo box will not fit to a 5 speed polo gti but what about the 5 speed lupo gti? thanks in advance matt

Hey Everyone! Im new to the site and the forums! Im not doing to many mods just yet as its only my first year of driving. maybe in a year or two i might do a few mods - i.e lowering, alloys, and other bits etc Ive put in a Sony WX-GT90BT (Double Din) stereo in, im considering a speaker upgrade aswell, or at leats putting some speakers in the back. Anyway, Ive just bought a lupo gti interior, and ive got a couple of questions. - Is the swap straight forward? like a few bolts and they come straight out? - Does the GTI interior go straight in? no need for drilling new mount holes etc? - Does it fit? The back seat is a bench and the standard lupo interior is two seperate seats, just wondering if its wider or the same? Also do the GTI rear seats still fold down? THANKS IN ADVANCE! -
Possibly the longest wait from buying the car to posting a thread about it, but I figure it's about time I posted! Bought it from GTi T on here back in April 2011. Had been looking at this for a while and eventually I had the money available so I bought it. It has a couple of mods;AP CoiloversG60 BrakesBMC Air Filter with cold air feedScorpion Cat-Back exhaustRear De-wiperCompomotive MO 15x7 ET20 all roundCambridge Rear Lights Since then, I've not done much to it, except for maintenance. It needed a new drivers side trackrod end to pass it's first NCT. After that, I spent quite a bit of time enjoying it. I had noticed one day while checking the oil that the HT lead on the first cylinder seemed to be loose so pushed it back down, and checked it a couple of days later and it had come loose again. I had thought nothing of it until one day coming home from work and I hear a pop and the car starts running like a bag of nails. I pulled over and noticed the HT lead had come off and the spark plug was sitting on the engine. Turns out the spark plug had been over tightened and the thread had stripped, so it went down to my mechanic for the thread to be repaired, and also had the valve guides and stem seals replaced and timing belt & water pump also. Moved abroad again for 18 months and the car sat idle. When I moved back home I had to change the batter as the old one wasn't holding any charge. Because of this the airbag light came on, and the ABS light was on. I had lost interest and had no money, so I had the thought to sell the car so had it up for sale for a while with not a whole lot of interest (thankfully!). Instead, I found work here so set about getting the car back on the road. Took the car to a main dealer for an oil change, brake fluid change, pollen filter, aircon re-gassed and the identified a few other faults, so the car went to my mechanic again for a new ABS sensor and polybushed front end. After this, I bought a MK5 Golf GTi and have been using that as a daily since. Some more pictures Lupo hasn't been forgotten though, I do have plans for it, and today I got a delivery for it... Of course I opened them straight away.. And, being the impatient man I am, I had to test fit them The rear seems to poke a little too much, but that should be easily sorted (I hope!) The fronts are 7J ET27, and rears are 7.5J ET20. THey've been completed refurbed, new dishes & bolts also. I'm considering getting them powedercoated, had originally wanted gold, but now I'm thinking of an anthracite type colour. I'd nock something up in photoshop, but I wouldn't know where to start with it! Hopefully there'll be a few other things completed before Dubshed.

So a few of you will recognise this car, it's been around the block but as long as nothing bad happens with my finances then i'll be keeping this a very long time! I'll let the photos do the talking, there are some potato photos from my phone so I apologize in advance for this! There are photos that i don't own, but found about the internet and various build threads! P.S if you want any of the photos removed then please message me!
