blueninja66 Posted March 9, 2010 Report Share Posted March 9, 2010 hi guys, owner of a lupo for the first time, looked around for a while and found a cheap and tidyish 1999 1.4s.its going to be used as a delivery vehicle for my new business.didnt think a corsa van was gonna cut it so went VW.now, what should i be keeping my eye on?its difficult to get into 1st, it goes in but not smoothly.the passenger door lock sticks when locking from the drivers side.and the passenger window has stopped operating from the drivers side.apart from those wee issues im really happy, mates think im mad but i couldnt care less.cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xavier259 Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 Welcome to the forum.This thread contains a list of common faults with the Lupo - Clicky From your description sounds like your pedal box is on it's way out. Not too sure about the other problems as I don't have central locking or electric windows but a search using the box in the top right usually comes up with a few results.

SamAtkinson Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 Mine does that with the windows, works half the time and then not the rest, havnt quite figured out what it is, but im sure its a wiring fault somewhere due to the fact mines had 4 sets of new switches in the past yearAnd welcome to the siteSam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueninja66 Posted March 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 cheers fellow members, been to have it checked over today at my mates garage,1. rear shockers.2. light cluster filled with water3. gearbox problems but he didnt have time to investigate.4. central locking switch gone on drivers side door lock.none of these scare me in the slightest and ive had an ace day bumbling about town doing my deliveries. i'd been using a BMW 318is prior to the lupo and i cant believe it took me so long to downsize!
