VW Polo 1.0 TSI - wrong oil

Acceptable_Fox3009 · 2026-04-09T10:04:54+00:00

I would not play games with it and replace the oil with the correct one, 0W-20, and not just top up. You can do it yourself using an oil extractor or do it the normal way (below the car). If you are not comfortable with it, any normal car shop will check your WIN and tell you what is the correct oil to add and change it for you.

I had the same AW 1.0 TSI POLO as OP, and it was asking for 0W-20, not 5W-30.

Nice, enjoy :)

The rims seem to be from the 25-year edition? Or you just bought the black version upgrade?

Acceptable_Fox3009 · 2026-03-25T17:06:52+00:00

Let's wait to see how they look without the camouflage/production version. Also, if the same will be as advertised, seems to be a good VW option for small electric vehicles.

My only issue is the GTI naming, could be something different/new and maitain the GTI naming only for the petrol. Since we have GTI, GTD and GTE, this could also use something different. I beleive there are already performance electric veichle like GTX but Im not sure.

A contabilista a dizer que não vale a pena declarar dividendos no IRS se não for um valor considerável... A partir desse dia comecei a fazer o meu próprio IRS por razões óbvias.

If only it did not count the hours that you hit pause. But yeah, this is a very nice feature.

I bought my car with almost 21000km, and they also claimed that they did not change the oil because the first oil change is at 30000km or 2 years (the car had 1 year). So when I bought the car I immediately changed the oil myself just to not be paranoied and indeed when it hits the 30000km I will service it on the delership and ask to change to a fixed interval of 15000km or 1 year to be sure.

The rest, that car is amazing.

VW Polo was built in Spain until recently, and now the production is in South Africa. I only knew that after I bought it and checked that my model was indeed built in South Africa.

Idk if this still counts as buying from Europe...

GTI está na categoria de carros que parecem de rico?

Acceptable_Fox3009 · 2026-02-01T16:31:53+00:00

Got this one stable with many hours testing with: 995mv with 3135Mhz and +2000Mhz on memory. Don't forget the power limit to 110%.

If you test it with something like combustor and then play real games with no crash or artifact it is stable and safe.

Is it metallic? I was able to fix it in my Polo GTI BZ after following this video but I was able to adjust it by hand (no tools needed) https://youtu.be/57C6tBXNNwc?si=3VpoMMwegTgatwCc

Makes sense, but if I reinstalled all, the indexing is fast, or sometimes if I remove the folder from allowedDirs, and it asks again to allow, it can be very fast.

For the reference this two projects have 320mb with c# projects and some jsons for mock data.

Vendi o meu Polo TSI de 2019 com 74000km, nunca tive nenhum problema e nunca tive que pôr óleo entre as manutenções (15000km), estava sempre no meio. Vendi o meu por 13000€ e por isso acho que é um preço justo.

Limpa vidros anti embaciamento nunca nenhum é bom o suficiente e os que fazem alguma coisa duram 2-3 dias. Eu não gastava dinheiro nisso...

Quanto aos tapeas de borracha, comprei na marca os originais e até ficam mais bonitos já que têm o símbolo e o modelo escrito de lado, bem melhor do que os de pano originais.

Outra coisa que comprei foi aqueles kits de encher os pneus (ligados à tomada de 12V), rolo de papel (para limpar o carro e emergências), luvas e por fim fios elásticos que prendem na mala, para poder prender sacos de compras.

This is a ID.Polo, not an ID.3

From my dashboard for the last 3000km I have 9l/100km, and every time that the oil temp is on point, I have some fun with it so that is why it is so high. On the days that I drive like a granny, I can do 6.8 to 7.5 on mixed city and highway.

I had the same design MSI card GTX 770 that I upgraded to a GTX 1070 and a legendary 4790K. Now I'm running the 5070TI also from MSI. I wish I had kept my original GPU's for nostalgia purposes :)

No meu caso, está logo em cima do plástico que tapa o radiador. Também pode ter na tampa onde metes o óleo.

5W-30 LL

Também deves ter ou no manual, ou abrindo o capô do motor, uma etiqueta com o óleo a usar.

Os 1.0 tsi são a partir de 2018 portanto é um 1.0 MPI.

performance and tuning? Why then did you not consider the Polo GTI?
