Electrical / Clock changes time to 01:00 wi...
Last post by CSPgodzilla - September 25, 2023, 10:18:06 PMThe clock changes it's time to 01:00, without any warning
The car went for a fluids renovation.
Got some new oil sensor.
Now it changes time with no warning what so ever, to 01:00.
Has it happened to anyone?
What Did you do?

Can you give some guidance?

Last post by CSPgodzilla - September 21, 2023, 09:32:01 PMThanks a lot
So, if a take it out (the DASH), I should find the lights that have gone off.
They are exchangable, right?
I could not find no information in the haynes manual.
Thanks a lot

Last post by hayesey - September 18, 2023, 12:11:42 PMquick update as this is a rather exciting stage. Some paint going on! Well, high build epoxy primer anyway:
that'll then get flatted back.

Electrical / Dashboard Backlight off
Last post by CSPgodzilla - September 17, 2023, 12:38:19 AMHi,
All lights work, dimm works, clock light, cigarret lighter works, but dashboard light does not switch on, at night when I switch the healights.
Where could be the problem?
Thanks

Last post by gaz g40 - September 16, 2023, 10:05:25 AMYe I know what you mean with the body work, mine needs new sills but that's a job for winter I think now with it passing its MOT.
Sorry but can't help with any of them but I'll keep an eye out for you for sure

Ongoing Projects / Re: G40 out after 10 year
Last post by gaz g40 - September 16, 2023, 10:02:54 AMSo yesterday I took the g40 for it's first MOT in 10 year. I told no one, I even took the ring door bell off so the wife wouldn't see.
She passed with a couple of advisories that I expected.
Soon as she passed I went to the wife's work to suprise her but unfortunately she heard me before she saw me.
I then spent about 2 hours just driving around and re living my youth. The smiles, waves and points from people I got was awesome but the g smile thrill just made it for me. So hopefully I'll get her out more often now then over the winter get the advisories sorted

Last post by hayesey - September 15, 2023, 03:13:56 PMIt's not been too bad, it's needed a few repairs on the floor & sills. It's one of those that if left a few more years would have gone too far.
I think most 2f polos are worse these days though yeah.
Things I need at the moment is a decent genuine driver's side wing (it had pattern ones on and whilst they are fine, I'd rather put genuine ones on) and a decent pair of bumpers as these ones have quite deep scratches on corners of them. A green tint windscreen would be good too as I acquired a full set of green tint glass some years ago but accidentally smashed the windscreen by rolling my other polo into it in the garage a couple of years ago

Last post by gaz g40 - September 12, 2023, 07:39:27 PMLoving the updates on this, the shell seems a pretty solid one to be fair doesn't it. Alot of hours in striping all that back aswell I bet
Glad the arms have come in handy, any other bits you may need drop me a message I may have stuff in the garage
