Why does my Volkswagen Polo have trouble starting in cold weather?

I recently bought a used Volkswagen Polo and I've noticed that it has trouble starting on cold mornings. The engine seems to struggle and it takes a few tries to get it going. Is this a common issue with Polos? How can I fix this?

It's a common issue with older Volkswagen Polos. The cold weather affects the battery and can make it harder to start the engine. I would recommend getting your battery checked and possibly replaced to avoid further issues.

I've had the same issue with my Polo. One thing that has helped is using a thicker oil in the winter. It helps the engine run more smoothly in colder temperatures.

I had a similar issue with my Polo and it turned out to be a faulty spark plug. Consider getting your spark plugs checked and replaced if necessary.
