VW car reg before Sep 2016, battery warranty is 2 years. After Sep 2016, battery warranty is 1 year only.
2 variant of VW battery I've seen installed on polo - Sebang Korea or Exide Spain. My Exide Spain also dead last year just within 2 years warranty window.

how much is the battery price?

Any problems with Polo 1.6 MPI ?
*
all cars got problem one biggrin.gif
but they assured me that the past problem with slow service & spare part availability are taken care of by the new mgmt team. also, the MPI is much more reliable compared to TSI (becoz of non turbo & normal gearbox type). hopefully this is true la smile.gif

Just for info, 2018 VW Polo HB has the newer and bigger touchscreen audio unit.

Like Iriz and 2016 Persona, there's no lock switch for each door, only driver has it. I tried locking the door by pressing the lock button at driver's door (now the amber lock light turn on), then i try to open the passenger door beside the driver from inside, the door open immediately. Is this normal? becoz unlike Iriz you need to pull twice to open a locked door from inside, one to unlock and another to open.

normal.

* bigger touchscreen compared to what? i thought the size is the same compared to last year's
