Volkswagen Polo 2013 Q&As

Check out real-world situations relating to the Volkswagen Polo 2013 here, particularly what our experts have to say about them.

  • Volkswagen Polo 2013: Broken gearbox

    It is unusual to have to replace a manual gearbox at any time, but to have to do it at just 199,000 km is unacceptable. Take it up with VW and see if they would cover at least part of the cost of the replacement.

  • Volkswagen Polo 2013: Why is my GTI going into limp mode?

    The lack of performance you’re feeling is when the car goes into ‘limp’ mode because it has detected a problem. Take it to your VW dealer and have them run a diagnostic check on it, which should identify the cause of the problem.

  • Volkswagen Polo 2013: Wiper skipping and shuddering

    It's usually because the wiper blades are not flipping over as they change direction at the end of the stroke, so they're effectively travelling at the wrong angle to the screen. Check the arms to see if there is a reason they are not flipping over. Did you use VW blades when you replaced them? If not try the factory blades. You could also try cleaning the screen and then using something like Rain-X.

  • Volkswagen Polo 2013: Wheel hub rust

    It sounds like the sort of surface rust that can happen during shipping or while the vehicle is in storage before it's sold, which can sometimes be months. If that's is the case then you really haven't got anything to worry about, but if you are concerned then get your dealer to explain to you what causes it and why it shouldn't be of concern.
