  1. Hi, i have recently installed wheel arch liners, installed the engine bay sound-deadening from an Up! and had the undercarriage rust-proofed. All have decreased the soundlevel while driving. So now I figure the "weak point" as far as road noise is the doors. Have anyone tried soundproofing their doors on their citigo? Does anyone have a link to a guide on how to remove the trim? (I assume 3-door and 5-door trim removal is somewhat comparable).
  2. Ah, so the gearbox was only available for a special Up? No 6-speed for a 60hp version?
  3. I have for a while felt that my Citigo needed a 6th gear for highway speeds - (110-130kph in Denmark). So I wondered if the Up had a 6-speed option? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen_Up And it did! How extensive would such a swap be? I mean if all the mechanical parts where there, it would be "plug and play"? Anyone with experience in doing such a swap?
  4. Yeah, i've made the same observation - (phone in my pocket, not bag - but yeah). I havent fiddled with the phone setup yet, hmm, maybe i should. Maybe I inadvertently changed someting.
  5. Hi, Only a few times have I smelled exhaust in the car - when holding still, but i think its when the wind blows the exhaust to the air cabin intake - which probably only happens at certain conditions? Not too strong wind, not too weak and with a direction along the car. I mostly smell other cars exhaust. I've experienced it mostly when in dense, slow-moving traffic - where i can smell the exhaust of the car in front of me. Solution: keep distance. I think the issues is that the cars cabin air-intake draws air from some low point on the car - so what if you have an exhaust leak, such that the leak is close to the cabin air intake?
  6. Hi, when i am calling someone through the "Move and Fun" phone bluetooth - often the person recieving the call has problems hearing me speak. I assumed that the system used my phones microphone for the call, and thus i placed the phone in the cup-holder, facing me - such that i could yell at it if needed. It did not solve my issue. So is there a microphone on the GPS unit? In the dash?
  7. Is the noise only present when your wife is with you in the car? 😁 (sorry, really bad humor - could not help myself).
  8. Sparkplugs - what is the correct gap of the electrode? (It is probably manufacturer dependent). I've bought some NGK, ZKER6A IOEG, which autodoc recommends for my Citigo from 2013 (engine - CHYA) - NGK also recommends them ☺️. https://www.ngkntk.com/benelux/part-finder/produktfinder/PKW/ZK_BENZINER/SKODA/CITIGO/ZKER6A-10EG/13327/ They are preset with a 1mm gap - is this just plug´n´play? Or do i need to adjust it to something else? I´ve read manuals from various online sold vendors, who shall remain nameless - they only specify the tightening torque of the sparkplug, one writes 22Nm, another 25Nm - and only one of these refer to the electrode gap, which is to be found in a maintenance booklet. This maintenance booklet i cannot find. So what did spark plugs did you use and what gap did you set them to?
  9. Same thread from Up forum - with guide. https://www.upownersclub.co.uk/forum/18-general-technical/9299-how-remove-ignition-coil-units-pics.html#/topics/9299?page=1 Picture of factory tools - if the zip-tie solution seem too sketchy https://images.app.goo.gl/NHMTmd57FTB69c8v9
  10. While it does not show the holes in the body - it at least shows how the screws are expected to be used to install the liner. https://skoda.7zap.com/en/cz/citigo/cit/2013-727/8/809-809070/ Sadly the parts codes are not listed. The corresponding parts for VW are listed here https://volkswagen.7zap.com/en/rdw/up!+e-up!/up/2013-723/8/809-809070/ Does anyone know if the parts from VW Up are usable on a Citigo?
