Tom 164 Posted May 22, 2018 2008 polo 1.4 petrol, parked in the shade starts no problem, parked in direct sunlight for a couple of hours it turns over but wont start. Any had this? Seems common among the VAG crap but cant find a definitive answer. Coolant sensor already changed. No fault codes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
