    Polo service question

    Sorry if in the wrong section but I can't post in other marques. I want to change the oil on my mothers 52 reg Polo 1.4 petrol. Do I need a special tool for the drain plug or will a normal socket do it? Also how do I reset the service indicator? Thanks for any advice.

    Michelin Pilot Sport 3

    I have these tyres on my car & just replaced the fronts after 17000 miles which I think is pretty good going. As said they do hang on well wet or dry, so worth the money.
