The summer tyres from Firestone which were mounted on our Fox factory have been an absolute penalty or are it still. I got a set of 15 Bridgestone tyres cheaply and now I am looking for beautiful rims I have already found a lot at tyre dealers but shows your rims and inspires me. My favourite at the time Rondel Type 58, Dotz Brands Hatch and AEZ Xylo

Hello dear user, I will shut down my Fox in 2 weeks. I would like to know that he will survive the 5 months winter, what I have to consider if he is standing in the garage for so long. I am very concerned about the liquid things in the car like oil or gasoline! How much should you keep in it or what should you let off.Or the battery, should you disconnect or something like that?What about the spark plugs? ipps you have so that I don’t wake up with a nasty surprise when I want to wake him up to life again in April… I’m really grateful for every tip you can give me. Greetings and thanks for the answers… FoxStar

Hello, so far I have assumed that the 1.2 liter vw fox petrol fuel displays between each part line are about 6.25 liters. Recently, however, I have observed that the fuel consumption according to the tank display is very low with a constant driving profile (~5.5liter/100km) and only from about half tank filling suddenly rises to about 8 liter/100km and then settles to the value of pretty exactly 7 liters confirmed by the pump. 70-100 kilometers until the needle moves at all times. Strange thing … Has someone observed similar or how many liters corresponds now to the distance between two parts? Ciao Matze

What can winter tyres cost for the Fox and where do you buy them best? Ebay? Thanks for your reviews! F.

Well…..have you already seen that your exterior mirrors turn white…….have even partially the new vehicles when they are delivered. Register with VW ! VW has introduced a 100% reporting obligation for all Fox. Before repair by the workshop the damage must be reported. There is currently no rep. on guarantee without a pre-registration to the factory !!!!!!!!!!

I would like to know if it is possible to install an original VW cruise control in a Fox 1.4 (75 HP gasoline) – e.g. with the turn signal lever from the Polo or Golf IV. The question is whether the cruise control function is stored in the control unit of the Fox and can be activated…… Has anyone already gathered information or even experience? Thank you!

Hello, was on vacation last week and I came back on the 29th so I thought on Sunday I would watch the friendly one see if your little one is already there. I couldn’t believe it when I saw him…just nice. Delivery date is the 5.8. I think I can get to know the week and get it. Well, it was worth every day I had to wait. mfg Markus

VW Fox, 1,2 , climate, electric window lifters, metallic, sidebags…Complete decoupling except ESP Unfortunately, only anyone can advise to buy a Fox, I thought VW has learned to do so.The following defects on my Fox: -on the pick-up date in the car dealership, dent in the side part, scratch bonnet, varnish burst off on the fender, cover window lifter defective, many lacquer inclusions etc. -2 days later on the first rain both display windows leaked, as I have read here have the problem many. -S chainwerfer ray into the sky -Handbrake pulls only when almost vertical stands Up to today not a single defect has been fixed!!! Have a lawyer. VW dealer waits for a so-called varnish condition at VW. Until then it probably has to rain further in?! I also think that these defects are not an isolated case. Had times an Alfa Romeo for almost 20 000 Euro and therefore I am used to some things concerning defects, but that has not happened to me yet. The very last one!

Hello people! I am writing here today for the first time and would like to introduce myself briefly here. I am Tobias and come from Weyhe, which is located directly near Bremen and am by profession aviation security assistant in general of the federal police and in between, if it is needed (in case of serious crimes such as murder and where incidents are feared like e.g. negotiations against foreign fellow citizens), security controller in the district and regional court of Bremen. (That was it briefly about me, now to the important We have 2 cars in the family, a Passat 3BG Variant Highline with 2.5 V6 TDI in Indigo blue and from Tuesday there will be a Fox 1.4 in Tornado red in front of the door. Ordered at the end of May (31 May, exactly one day before price increase) and just under a week ago came the redeeming call, which the Fox is ready to pick up in the car town. So Konfig we took a simple model: 1.4l with 75 HP in Tornado red color package and sliding, folding and wrapable rear seat and strip E-seat covers in black and white. Radio is retrofitted a normal one by Panasonic. I hope that everything goes smoothly at the handover and if you want, I will put photos of the handover online! I am so looking forward to the one, small day in Wolfsburg, that is incredible! Best regards TobiasR.

Hello Fox driver! Since the Fox is supposed to be a so-called “priced” car I would like to know what you paid for the car here. In the family was now looking for a cheap car for a novice and here was of course also the Fox talking. however it was then a Hyndai Getz (about 80hp) ( hopefully everything was written correctly), because this “only” 10T€ incl. climate, radio, alarm electric window lifters, ABS, airbags etc. cost again. At the Fox would be so my question: What does a new VOLKSWAGEN really cost? Greeting BB (of course it is also interesting which equipment is in it)
