Got a suggestion from one of the local service technicians, to go for SACHS brand clutch kit.

I actually just changed the pump on my 2018. With the pump/thermostat assembly, and a collection of specific tools, it cost me ~$900. I was quoted 2k by a dealer so I saved a good chunk of change. All-in-all the job is straightforward, save plenty of headache with disconnecting hoses and wire clips.
Ayyyy something to check ik it’s two different vehicles but my 2012 Passat ended up doing the same thing and one mechanic told me a new engine but thankfully he send me to euro shop for a second opinion and wala what I thought the car was toasted it was a camshaft position sensor
I'm a Mintex Red Box fan, I also upgrade to AutoTech drilled/vented rotors since I drive like I stole it. 2009 Jetta driver.
Zimmerman rotors and akebono pads. I put them on my jetta in sept and they're not showing any wear.
I did drilled Zimmerman with EBC red break pads up front and regular Zimmerman with the same pads in the rear.
No problems other than the water pump
So far, I changed spark plugs, ignition coils, fuel filter, air filter and I got a new battery.
On the day of delivery itself, the car wouldn\u2019t start. The dealership jump-started it and said there was a small battery issue, assuring me that it won\u2019t happen again. But from that day onwards, the vehicle has never been reliable.
Hope you screwed them in with the correct torque, unlike my VW dealer. They started to unscrew themselves and causing instant misfire and rpm drops to 200 and engine shutoff.
