paulbin Posted September 10, 2004 Report Share Posted September 10, 2004 My brothers girlfriend told me that they are bringing out a new vw car called a FOX. Its supposed to be like the lupo but its got a bit more of a boot, its supposed to be bigger than a lupo but smaller than a polo. I think she said it was gonna be released 2006, and then six months after that they will not make the lupo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulbin Posted September 10, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2004 ah the throttle seems a bit slow to respond to any pedal movement, my brother thinks it might be the throttle position sensor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tdwindustries Posted September 10, 2004 Report Share Posted September 10, 2004 ummmwell1. Take air box off - using screws and allen key (i can expand if you want me too)2. Spray TB with cleaner (from Halfords)3. put back togetheri can do more detail if u want, but its failry easy. I took my TB off (unplug and unscrew) but was a bitch cos of the pipes and stuff... but it did clean up nicely.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy Posted September 10, 2004 Report Share Posted September 10, 2004 It is supposed to be a problem with the 1.4 engine, serious throttle body claggage (technical term) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
