The Shift Points Of A Vw Polo

Thats kinda wierd that you only gained about 10km/h in 4th gear

Yeah....it really is. while driving on the highway, trying to pass on the left you shift to fourth hoping to get a little kick, but all that happens is noise and exceeding the efficiency of the engine. Passing onthe left is definately scary in this one.

last yeat I went I rented a Polo as well, but then it crapped out and they replaced me a Clis (the massive, gargantuan, powerful 1.2 as well) and I could almost make it chirp/grind 3rd, but 1st and second were a definate. This Poopy Polo would even doit in 2nd...could be my ability too. :rolleyes:

To its defence, though, if you stuck t 120 (limit in Portuguese Highways) the gas lasted forever. at 1Euro 20 per litre, thats a good thing.

RENTAL CARS ARE GREAT!

gotta love it

two weeks of redlining a Polo (or anyting for that matter)and not worrying about the consequences? How can you go wrong...even if it was a Deux Chevaux I'd be smiling. I do confess, however, I did check the oil level EVERY morning...just in case, you know. :lol:

Just to make sure there was some still in there, and it was not foamy or too burnt.

...and once in a while there was a funky smell through the vents. :blink:

During some construction at our house last year (I rented the same beast)...so its a bit of a shambles.
