Huhu, so slowly enough for me as well and I don’t really like the car anymore – at first really a great car, but gradually the problems accumulate, and notice that the processing is not the true one. Now I thought about driving to my friendly, and ask if I could not get a polo for the Fox, which is now also on guess payment, Vll. can be changed – so rather pay a little more and get a polo for it!? Well, too bad own That’s how I had to come!

Hi guys, since I’ve read this before and apparently often ask questions about the system and radio, I wanted to post my recommendation for the smaller wallet here (namely the system that I built in… ) So as a radio I have the original RCD 200 and must say that the sound is really top with real boxers… My boxes are as follows: 2x In the front doors and on the hat shelf:http://www.blaupunkt.com/en/7606425002_main.asp Machnen e in the really good sound… Had she first only in the front in the doors, i.e. only front system, and must say that could be enough for one or the other already… After that I enjoyed it for the back (I am so spoiled when listening to music from the PC ) and there they have an even better sound, because they still have the trunk for the unfolding of their sounds as a resonant body (named also very nice bass) … Then I still have this here in the suitcase aum:http://www.blaupunkt.com/en/76 06450001_main.asp +http://www.blaupunkt.com/en/7607792134_main.asp Wanted a subwoofer, which makes even more pressure, because there are no boxes at a subwoofer, i.e. amplifiers for the rear boxes and the sub purchased and built in (but have the black version of the final stage, which fits better to the interior of the car)… Now I am very happy with my system and find the “soft” silver boxes fit well in the interior of the Fox… g is also very good for my taste, you don’t need to spend a lot of money to get a sher guta system… I have the Bose system in my stepfather’s Audi and must say that my system can keep up with it, the basses are even better than the Audi… All in all you have with some installation effort a very good system, with which also spoiled ears come to your expense… Price for all the parts (without radio, was already in it ): 4x 39,99€ for GTX 1 73 (is now starting from 19.99€) 1x 75€ GTA4 Special (was an offer ) 1x 45€ Subwoofer GTB 300 HP (is now already cheaper) then makes 279€ (now already for ca. 180€, I bought probably too early xD, no, because it is the exit models 2006, 2007 come new…) Hope that someone will help… MfG

When I bought a second car in August, as a convinced VW driver only the small Fox came into question for me. The classification in liability 14 or fully comprehensive12 was also comparable with other vehicles in this class. With the new contribution calculation for 2007 came the shock. Now HP.17 or VK.15 both by say and write up 3 steps. Since these classifications are related to the damages caused by Fox Pilots I wonder why drive exactly so many Here are some similar cars from the VW Group: Polo 1.2 HP.14 / VK.14 or Fabia1.2 HP.16 / VK.13 or A2 1.4 HP.12 / VK.12 as well Seat Ibiza 1.4 HP.15 / VK.16 even the Golf V 1.4 has only in the HP.14 / VK. 15. What differences exist to these drivers who move one Fox? Driving with the others than no beginners.? Or is it due to his Brazilian temperament, VW wants to let the Fox run out of it.? So questions about questions.! ox drivers and your wallets (if you have to pay it yourself) an accident-free ride. helma1

when I went home this evening (the last 3 km it goes uphill) and then put off the fox, I noticed a red glow (red as with a cigarette) behind the radiator grill (under the hood). when I opened the hood, what glowed (the curved one?) under a sheet cover. because I don’t know myself so well with engines and especially with vw motors: is that normal? or do I/my car have an arges problem? did not find anything in the operating instructions. however, I don’t want to know anything about myself either: is that normal? or do I/my car have an arges problem? in the wekrstatt embarrass. guaranteed I would have spent another month on the fox. what should I do? please help! thank you! gruss -pocky101-

Something very stupid happened to me today. I’ve had a Fox as a rental car for a few days. Parked the good piece in my duplex garage, there was already a lot of noise (as you probably noticed, the lower level of the garage) and I remembered again, the antenna. Was not too bad when driving in, but driving out, could not unscrew it, so someone held it while driving out, but then slipped away and the stupid antenna broke out of the anchor. What’s the fun at VW going to cost me? Thank you very much.

Hello Fox drivers, the Fox of my mother is only 15 months young has about 10,000 km (daily use!) down and when braking from about 80 km/h everything vibrates like crazy in the interior. Drive to the VW dealer: Brake discs are rusty in various places (hence at these places thicker), therefore the vibrating… Statement: Wearable part, brakes were used too little…^^ etc. no culant! Has someone ever had experience or similar problem and culant se itens VW? Would be by far the first KfZ which has broken brake discs after this mileage…is simply incomprehensible and indicates poor material quality. thank you for suggestions and or opinions

Hello, I have a problem with my car. When I start my car lights up after about 30 s the warning light for coolant temperature and there are 3 warning tones. The instructions say that either the temperature is too high or the coolant level is too low. The same problem occurred already about 1 1/2 weeks ago. There was the cooling average level actually just below the min limit. As a result I mixed G12 plus plus with a little water (about 3 parts G12 plus and 1 T) The coolant temperature cannot be too high after the start, or ? And coolant liquid is still enough in it. Is it completely at the outside temperatures ? I opened the balance tank again earlier to see if there was a little bit frozen. In the balance tank itself nothing was frozen. Also, I was able to keep the sleeper open again to see if there was anything frozen. In the balance tank itself nothing was frozen. I would be very grateful for the answers.

Hello, have used the search function several times but unfortunately found nothing suitable. My daughter drives a new Fox (EU Fz.) since the beginning of March. The good piece was ordered without VW Radio, because in her Twingo a well functioning radio was built in and the Twingo was scrapped, we were of the opinion the radio is simply installed in the Fox. Okay is not so easy, but as a learned electronician you know to help yourself after a little I-Net research I knew what ic h needed for an adapter (without CAN bus adapter). You can switch your radio on and off manually. So flight the adapter bought part arrived even after a few days. Ran to the enemy. Multimeter out a little measure then was quickly clear how the radio has to be connected. Still the antenna adapter on it and everything worked excellently. After about 5-6 weeks Fox no longer starts. Okay service called car was towed and allegedly checked (battery charged). No Wor again after about 5-6 weeks the same game Fox no longer jumps on after disco visit (Fox was maybe 5 hours). In both cases no light, radio or other was left on. So again call at the service, of course the same as the first time. On Tuesday then the call from the friendly the car would be ready and can be picked up. So my daughter go pick up car, now the hammer the radio was expanded, her were 250,- Euronen from I don’t understand anything anymore in my life, certainly 30 – 50 radios have been built into different car’s but something like that hasn’t happened to me yet. Can’t and doesn’t want to believe it. I then measured a little electricity on Wednesday. Multimeter between plus cable and battery pole. The following came out. Built-in is a 60 AH battery ignition, doors closed, radio developed ——-> 0.13 A as above, with radio OFF – ——> 0.43 A as above,with radio ON ——-> 0,90 A If I look at the values then I could in theory leave the radio on about 60 hours only then the battery should be empty. If it is always switched off about twice the time. Does anyone have advice or any other idea or I make a thought error. Had the problem also described to my VW workshop there was also my opinion that it could not lie on the radio. For me the thought on one has only one Reason sought to pass on the costs !!!!

Is 8 times tyres( tires are ok) Accessories: Exhibit window,electric comfort package,air conditioning, radio RCD200,servo steering,outside equipment color,heatable exterior mirror,adjustable steering wheel,back seat divided,ABS. The test drive was ok. Only when braking the steering wheel has trembled a bit. The price at the dealer is 8890 Euro. But you can still trade something (hope I) Is the price too high? Is such a vehicle ok? Is used mainly for short distance. Thank you in advance. ingefoxy.

Since my Fox is growing more and more at my heart, I will probably keep it for more than three years & drive it. So I want to invest a little more money and collect some ideas on how to make the Fox even more economical. So far the following ideas have come up: – Sports air(exchange)filter – ECO-Chip – Aluminium rims (14″-165er) – Light running oil – slightly increased pressure (+0.2 bar) of the tires What do you think? Could you change even more on the Fox to further reduce fuel consumption? I don’t want to make the Fox a rocket. But I would like to have a small petrol sprite saving miracle in the garage.
