Volkswagen parts reviews

The Mann filter I use in my 13 Jetta TDI is HU 719/7X. haven't had any problems with them.

I’ve had really good luck with Koyo radiators in the past as a really good replacement. The couple all aluminum radiators I’ve had, I really wasn’t impressed with the quality of construction.

I have 2015 sportwagon tdi and use shell rotella t6 5w 40 . I have 340000 miles on and runs fine.

I went with Denso's on my 1.8T because that is what I had on the shelf. but I have ran anything and everything in vehicles over the years, and found that there is not much different between the different types.

Amateurs. I run Bilstein B8's with H&R OE sport springs + 034 solid RSB. About an inch drop with much better damping. I personally still drive it like I stole it with a grin the whole time.

Koni Special Actives with Stock springs will give you a performance uplift and better ride as well.

I had Akebono pads last time out with OEM and they were great. Low dust although they wore rather quickly.

APR coils lasted almost a year (5/6000 miles) when I pushed it and let go of the pedal. CEL would flash and random cylinders misfire.

The tech noticed the water pump was leaking slightly. All got repaired under VW warranty which was lucky as it was around £1800 otherwise I think. Anyway, the weird thing is the car always lost coolant from new - it would drop to the min level, but they couldn't find a fault when I mentioned it until they physically found the water pump leaking after 4 years and 40k miles. I think the pump is plastic which may not be ideal.
