Sorry not to offer any help but I had the same problem with a 2002 1.2 VW Polo.... numerous trips to garage .... they could never find anything .... I got so fed up with it, I decided to sell the car .... The car had only been VW serviced so I don't think yours has been sabotaged!

Automatic transmission fluid vw polo
The dash lights are powered by the battery through the ignition switch via a fuse. Check the electric connections and conditions of the wires.

Change the transmission fluid to solve transmission issues. Original fluid is always preferable as it is specifically designed for the transmission.

My 2001 VW Polo oil pressure warning light comes on regularly after driving for approx 8 miles - oil level & pressure both appear to be ok and water level too. Oil sensors replaced but to no avail....
Have you checked your thermostat. Some cars do not have gauges for all componants of the car located on the dash board. A bad thermostat could drive the oil pressure gauge up, if there is not a coolant level gauge on the dash board.

My 1996 vw polo when stationary loses power when using electrical items and can even cut out and does this when driving as though there isnt enough power in it why is this, i no the alternator works
If the alternator works, then why is it behaving this way?
Is there a battery light on the dash?
Are the battery cable ends clean and shiny when removed?
I would have a starting charging system analysis done at Sears, or Walmart, or your local auto parts store.

1992 VW Polo 1.3L Coupe: warning light mystery
Bought a very reputable diy service manual for the vehicle, and that plus a bit of thought and nous gave me the cure: no intrinsic problem other than loose relay connections. Went round with the wiring diagrams as guide checking all electrical connections in tight and relays fuses etc all good. Switched on and no problem any more.

By the way, vehicle is 1992 VW Polo - not Fox (which in UK is a variant of the Polo)
