If you're not used to that kinda power, I suggest u take it easy. The car can handle that kinda power, but our 'uncle' reflexes might not be ready for it. That's why I drove cautiously for 1 month before slowly pushing the car.  thumbup.gif

My Polo does it too...I don't think it's a problem.  I initially suspected that it was adaptive headlights, but I doubt it's a feature on the Polo.

Had something weird happen today, turned my engine off after I parked and then decided to repark, so I turned it back on and turned the A/C on, hot air (and I mean HOT air) started blowing, like the heater was set.  The temp was only set at 22 degrees...but after I turned the A/C off and back on, it was fine. 

Also got a rattle that sounds like it's coming from the dashboard/engine compartment on idle...brought it to the service center, they kept the car for a day and told me that they can't fix the problem, something to do with the turbocharger.  I read about some owners in Australia who had rattling sounds with their Polos and the fix was to reroute some of the piping in the engine bay.  Anyone else experienced the rattling sound?

Not a perfect car, but I still love it!

Multiple pipes underbonnet and fuel lines noisy, roadtested vehicle with customer and confirmed presence of noises. Traced noise to fuel pipes rattling in chassis rail, removed pipes and insulated with foam, tested, noise now gone. Traced other noise to L/H/F chassis rail holder/clip adrift that holds P.A.S pipes. Refitted clip correctly, tested, noise now gone. Heard another noise, traced this noise to air coupipe rattling against chassis rail on R/H/S manovered pipe away from chassis, no noise evident now.

Whatever you mean, it is highly unlikely to bring in a TSI engine for CKD, so polo sedan kick polo 1.2 ass ? well we will just wait and see... I am looking forward to the jetta tho, if they ckd that with a TSI engine like the model in Sg, I will buy one tomorrow!! 1.4 TSI DSG or 1.4 TSI sport drool..drool....I will buy one of each.......blehh to the 1.6 one....lets see sell my house..my dog.....what else could I mortgage? LOL
