Help needed with 2002 1.2 12v Polo

[turbo-tastic]

I dont suppose anyone knows how to get the plastic engine cover off a VW Polo do they??

The Ex Mrs was supposed to get her car serviced (by me, when we were still going out) in May last year, but she didn't, and now the cars running like crap.

I want to check the spark plugs but I cant get to them because of this engine cover thing. There's no visible bolts or fixings, and it certainly doesn't pop off, as when I pulled at it it lifted the whole car (jelly suspension )

Anyone have any ideas?? I'm getting a right earful now, cos its clearly my fault

Cheers

Ed.

Looks like this,

It should just pull off - try a quick and hard tug.

If problems, ask over at uk-polos.net, they'll definately know.

Will do, cheers.

I thought it should, but maybe I was being to gentle
