The VW Polo manual covers the 1.2 litre (1198 cc) and 1.4 litre (1390 cc) petrol engines and the 1.2 litre (1199 cc) and 1.6 litre (1598 cc) diesel engines.
The newly released videos cover jobs for your Mk5 Volkswagen Polo such as changing the air filter, renewing the front brake pads, replacing the rear shock absorbers and changing the auxiliary drive belt.

Haynes is the industry leader in automotive manuals, having sold over 200 million manuals worldwide, and Haynes has been helping everyday motorists to save money on costly garage bills for more than 60 years.
Every manual is written from hands-on experience gained from stripping down and rebuilding each vehicle in the Haynes Project Workshop.
