Category: VW Lupo Forum

Hello! I need your help. My Lupo has the following problem. The windscreen wiper in the rear runs through completely without a break, so no interval. The error occurs immediately when the ignition is on and cannot be stopped. It has already been changed: wiper motor in the rear complete new, wiper lever in the front complete (Febi) new and also the relay no. 19 under the fuse box. Only by pulling the fuse (15A) the engine stops at the rear. At the front the wiper goes very well in all positions. However, I noticed something funny as soon as the ignition is on and the wiper in the rear runs, the lever pushes for the water spray function, immediately the wiper in the front runs equally on continuous operation and can no longer be stopped. After I turn off the ignition, everything is normal at the front again, just not at the back. To the Lupo, it is a 1.0 with AUC engine, Bj11/2000. I know what it can be, there is still a relay? or do I have the luck that a new part is broken?

Good morning and to all fathers a nice father’s day, my problem is that my tanker has broken last. I had a gas odour in the car for a long time and found out that it is due to the high pressure line on the tanker. Now I wanted to remove it from the tanker to see if the seal is defective. How else is it, the plastic on the tanker where the high pressure line is on it is broken. Now I need a new tanker.. Which one can buy there? Used or rather new? And I even found some with 3 or 4 bar, what is the difference? MfG NoNstore

People, I’m new here and completely broken up. Need your help.. Last time I stayed with my Lupo 3L. Just went out in the ride. The aisles were dark in the display. At first he didn’t go on, but now he’s running on N. I read out with VCDS and that came out (see photo ). If I hit him now and go on D, the aisle pops in with a force and the lupo goes out immediately. I’m really desperate and depended on the little ones. What could it be, one of you an idea or tips?

HI! Since I couldn’t really be helped on the Seat-forum, I just ask the VW comrades here! So I own a 1.4TDi and I’m quite happy with the small one and have a few questions. 1. What does this mean in average of the timing belt changes? Was already at some workshops and are so 350€ a real number? And what do you think of having the water pump changed with you? 2. Since I now have to make another oil change, what kind of oil do you recommend to me? Have you got some tips? 3. Can I drive biodiesel with my little one? Unfortunately, I don’t have a manual for the car anymore, therefore the question. 4. What do you think about installing an open air filter kit ( K&N, Raid etc.)? Or is a change mat ala K&N sufficient? I would like to thank you in advance for the answer! peace

hi, can anyone tell me something about this? there are already experiences with the durability? is there someone who already has more than 150tkm on it? what is broken? greetings

Hello, I had my FSI with feathers (40/40) lower in a workshop and now is rather higher than before (at least in front). I attached a picture of it. Since I don’t want to leave it that way and the feathers are apparently total scrap for lowering (driving behavior is better than before) I immediately ordered new H&R springs by COD yesterday after terrible sight and the pick-up, which I have in 3L (is also 6E) to fix this again quickly l The sight was shocking yesterday after reaching the workshop. I only thought: “What is that?”. The feathers are from a dealer and are from the house “AP”. I said explicitly for Lupo 6E when ordering by phone. Actually I have always been against exotic manufacturers who are not so well known but this time I just tried it out (should be a German manufacturer) and ended up completely beside it. When unpacking the feathers I was too t also skeptical because the rear spring had 9 coils and the front 12. In addition, the included report was only for 6X and 6ES! So I called the dealer again before the installation and he only said that they fit nevertheless. In addition, in the included invoice also stood for “6E”. After I saw the result yesterday, immediately then called the dealer and mailed him a picture of the thing. I get the money back for the springs when they next at the end next I guess it’s because of the other axle loads that the seller didn’t pay attention to. The description was clearly “for FSI”. I’m glad to have bought now reasonable ones in my 3L. So I know what I have.

The following problem: On the engine recently on Friday the timing belts, the valve shaft seals, head seal were re-entered. Since then the car smokes grey/black. It needs oil. Can this be an electronic problem, or can I look forward to piston rings? Engine control was also addressed yesterday. Please ask for advice “Help” Thank you!

hello, wanted to ask if someone fromeuch knows if there is something new in backlight for the lupo! maybe beautiful LED backlights!? so from the clear glass (lexus) style light up stop I nothing! would be nice to hear something from you!

Hello, I have a question! I’m just tired of driving into the workshop and having what to do with the car. Now I want to sell it. Could someone give me a tip about what to ask for?! Write a few details here. -VW Lupo 1.0 – 50 HP – EZ 12/98 – Green – 126Tkm – Servo – Driver and passenger airbag – TÜV bis 09/14 – Green badge – Summer tire on rim – Winter tire on steel rim with VW wheel blinds This was made new in 2012: – Keilriem in October – spark plugs – ignition distributor – cable set – oil change The following things have to be done: – the throttle valve should be re-set (cleaned but not properly re-set) – starter should be re-made (jumps in cool condition super, but if the engine is warm or it rains it has trouble to ignition). – Light rust bubbles on the roof (allegedly a Lupo problem according to VW) – left and right scratches over wheel boxes back – door closed passenger side doesn’t have to be opened from the inside anymore. Otherwise he’s still driving great. My thing is just I don’t want to keep putting money in because everyone tells me something else. Thanks for the answers!

First some data: Lupo Rave, 1.0, MKB AUC, year of construction 7/2004, Km-Stand 81,000 . The topic is not new. On a short drive I noticed quite clearly that a cylinder had dropouts. Home error read out …. P0300 combustion dropouts detected, P0301 1. cylinder. As far as, so good. All ignition cables degraded and controlled. In the candle plugs found corrosion damage. The cable plug to the ignition transformer of the ignition cable of the 1st cylinder was covered with “green chip” thick. Ergo has d If you look more closely, the entire pin in the plug holder is evaporated. This was certainly caused by a faulty contact of the plug. This means that a new ignition cable set and a new ignition transformer are ordered. Ignition cables are already installed. Wait for the ignition transformer. I have taken three photos. Hope you can still see some things. Hang them only in the following after, since I still have to charge them on the PC. Only by chance I have the O xydation on the plug. I had to “light in” with the lamp. I have read here in the forum many times about the “failure” of the first cylinder with the AUC engine. Certainly there are different causes for this. But in some articles it was to be read that only after exchange of the ignition transformer the error was fixed. For me the question arose, how does it come to the “running” of a contact pencil ?. Think that there could be 3 main causes here: 1.) Is it due to the Zündtrafo construction ? 2.) The plug of the ignition cable is not pressed properly and this has therefore no proper contact and the high voltage concerned by spark overlay the rest. (main cause ? ) 3.) Or with an engine wash with a high pressure device water is pressed under the rubber cover which then leads first to contact difficulties and oxidation to the contacts and the rest is then done by the high voltage.Conclusion: Control fixed plug seat and with a possible engine wash d Greeting Hans At picture three you can see that the massive pen in the Zündtrafo is completely gone. The high voltage has “eated” him.
