Volkswagen Polo 1.4 Automatic. I can't move when engaged into drive or reverse. What can be the problem please?

This will likely take a diagnosis by a professional mechanic. The problem has about 4 different possible causes and I can't eliminated them for you. 1. The hydraulic pump might have not been installed correctly. 2. Your transmission fluid might be low. 3. The transmission might have been damaged before or during the pump replacement. 4. The solenoid pack that regulates the flow of fluid in the valve body might be faulty causing the transmission to malfunction. I am sorry to tell you that Volks wagons are expensive to work upon. I will mention that in another brand of Japanese car, a bad interlocking solenoid could be bypassed by pressing a button or jamming a wire in it to keep it depressed and the car would shift gears then. A mechanic might say the assembly might have to be fixed when only the solenoid had to be replaced. But as some of the potential causes are likely to ruffle a mechanic, depending if stay with the one that changed the pump, I don't want to "stir" trouble and my last comment may be totally useless. Sadly, you will have to make use of a professional mechanic experienced with Volkswagons. This is going to sting and I am truly sorry for your predicament. You never know your luck. Maybe it is low transmission fluid.

1997 Volkswagen Jetta. The sunroof wont close. What to do??

Question edited for clarity. Question moved to model category. No, disconnecting the battery will cause even more problems like the vehicle not starting and running rough for a week. Just close the sunroof manually and then check the fuses and relays. https://www.google.com/search?q=1997+Volkswagen+Jetta.+The+sunroof+wont+close https://www.google.com/search?q=1997+volkswagen+jetta.+sunroof+fuse+location ..

VW T5 TRANSPORTER 1.9 TDI When I put key in the ignition it doesn't want to crank the engine when engine is cold, but when engine is hot it cranks engine as normal. I replace a new crank sensor. Still

To crank an engine means to turn it over with the starter motor. Is this what you mean ... it won't turn over?

2009 Volkswagen Tiguan diesel. Why is no fluid coming out of disconnected lower radiator hose?

The bottom of the radiator is blocked with sludge. Remove it, turn it upside down, tape the hose to the connection and hose flush all 4 ways up 90', 180', 270', and 360' until the water runs clear. If overheating has been an issue, just replace the radiator, and add a cleaning additive.
