They mention 37 l more in the boot in the i10 compared to the Citigo in the article above. That cant be right? Isnt it just 1 l that seperate them? 251 vs 252 l. Sent from my RM-825_eu_denmark_292 using Tapatalk

Yeah, i saw a 35w, but only in 24v version? Didn´t check for a 12v though. I wanted to take the original 10w into account, regarding dimension of wirering and i wasn´t sure the 21w version would fit into the lens itself. And yes, there are 2 reversing lights on the triplets. But i hope 18w will do the trick. :-)

I found some 18w bulbs in Biltema in Denmark. Compared the size of the bulb head, to the different versions in the shop. (I was away for the weekend in a different car, so couldn´t check the exact size of the bulb hole on the Citigo). The 21w version was noticebly larger than the 18w version. Have just installed the 18w version, and it fits and works fine. Will have a look tonight how much light they put out. :-) For the scandinavian readers that have access to Biltema, the part number is 35-15445 and the price is 20 kroner for 2 bulbs. I think the 21w versions might fit, but i am not sure, and wouldn´t bet on it. ;-)

Biltema here in DK have different kinds of BA15S bulbs - 10/18/21w. Will have a look at what size the bulb head is. If it will fit through the lens hole. Hope i can get the 18w or 21w to fit. We´ll see :-) Thanks for the help so far.

Damo -> Yeah, but that doesnt really solve my problem. ;-) Stormchaser -> Yep, will order some cree-based bulbs and have a go at it. :-) Mejslet i sten med en Nokia 3310.

Hmm, guess i´ll just have to buy a couple of LED bulbs and try it out. I´ve seen a few people talk about flickering when the lights are not on, so just wanted to ask peoples experiences before throwing money away. :-)

And they Will work without flickering and error Messages? Mejslet i sten med en Nokia 3310.

Hi, Is there any way to upgrade the reversing lights on the Citigo? It´s only 10w, and not much power, so having trouble seeing where i am going. The original bulb is a R10W BA15 made by Osram. Is there anyway to get a LED version to work in the Citigo? A more powerfull conventional bulb would also do the trick. Even a 2012 Kia Rio has 16w reversing lights. :-p

Pictures: Done with tinting spray. Was on the Fabia for over 4 years, and still looked fine.

I have tinted the clear bits on my previous Fabia and now my Citigo. It isnt legal here in Denmark, but its normally not a problem if you leave the reflexes alone and its not too dark. No problems at 2 MOTs with the Fabia. Hmm, i have some pics in the gallery, but cant post them from my phone. Will post from pc in a bit. Sendt fra min HUAWEI Y300-0100 med Tapatalk2

Working on some used rims i bought for the Citigo. A bit more work than i thought and im still far from done. Sendt fra min HUAWEI Y300-0100 med Tapatalk2

Thank you very much. Hope i can bring them back to glory. They are original VW wheels from a Golf 2 i believe.

Just a test fit of my new used wheels. They need some love and attention and my plan is to polish them to a good shine. Only 15 inch, but i wanted something different and so that the car is still economical. Sendt fra min LG-E975 med Tapatalk2

A few weeks ago, I swapped the Fabia for a new Citigo. The Fabia has been very reliable in 6 years and 186.000km. It's had a hard life, but never missed a beat. Just hope the Citigo is the same. So far i like the car very much. Quite impressed with the little engine. Sendt fra min LG-E975 med Tapatalk2

Thank you very much. The asphalt plates made a big difference. Before there was some resonance around 85km/h, but that was almost gone afterwards. I think it may be the exhaust making resonance into the boot floor. I don´t have a spare wheel, so there wasn´t anything to dampen the vibrations. I´ve also had the car undersealed with wax / Dinitrol, so i guess that also absorbs a lot of noise. A lot of people say that the Up/Mii/Citigo make a lot of noise in the wet, when the water splashes into the rear wheelarches. I have no idea what they are talking about. After all this, i get nothing like that at all. To me the car is pretty quiet now.

Thanks I haven´t done anything like this before. I´ve applied felt to a square sub-box before and thats all the experience i had prior to this. It´s a bit difficult with all the angles, but i was able to stretch the felt a bit. I started by gluing the middle part of each piece in place, and then cut it to fit - a real p.i.t.a. but i felt it was the best way to do it. The difficult thing was to cut everything to fit afterwards. My back....i´m only 28, but i felt like an old man standing in weird positions in order to cut everything correctly. :beer: I like the way it turned out. Yes, there is a color difference in the felt, but it looks worse in a picture. It´s something i would recommend everyone to do.

So today I fitted lights in the boot and have started to line the arches. I have added some thick felt in different places, to help protect the bodywork, but also the things I throw in there. Tomorrow I'm going to fit some grey felt, so it should look pretty ok. Couldn't get the exact same grey color, but it's better than nothing. It's not going to be a master piece, but it will be functional and offer some protection for the car. Sendt fra min LG-E975 med Tapatalk2

There are some numbers and graphs here: http://www.motor-talk.de/blogs/all-about/vw-up-44-vs-55-kw-radzugkraftvergleich-drehzahl-bei-t3769837.html It´s in german, but you should be able to figure it out. Personally i come from a Fabia Combi 1,9 TDI with tuning and 130bhp, and now drive a 60bhp Citigo. I drove the 75bhp as well, but couldn´t really tell any difference. Maybe a bit quicker on motorway, but that could also be the different gearing. .

Feebet - you are just awesome! Thank you.
