Volkswagen parts reviews

I went with Zimmermann discs for their cost and have had no issues with them.

I put the z23 pads and drilled and slotted rotors on my golf mk7.5 and virtually no dust.

And yet my 2008 VW had a Bosch battery out the factory ????‍♂️.

Fucking thing lasted 10 years or so though. So credit to Bosch for that one!

I've been using Anco C-24-SB Contour for the LH side and Anco C-21-SB Contour for the RH side. Those fit great and the only modification needed is to trim about 1/2" off the rubber spoiler next to the attachment point so it clears the wiper arm.

Now the easiest one to find that meets my manual requirements is the Mobil 1 euro formula that’s the cool green color. The back of the bottle specifically states it meets VW specs.

front brake pads (textar) for gti with performance pack, bolts, anti-squeal, grease; normally $70+

18 months in and 57k of highway driving (knock on wood) I haven't had any issues with the windshield. I live in Florida, and have the 2022 Pro S RWD.

I don\u2019t have warping or shimmy issues but above 50ish mph when braking I get this loud whirl or hum type of thing. It\u2019s very loud it\u2019s from the rear. I never had this issue on my s3 and it\u2019s the same setup minus the pads. Not sure. I\u2019m thinking of getting golf r or s3 pads and installing them.

I installed Bilstein B16 DCC shocks/springs. Frankly I hate them. They are not tuned to the chassis well so makes the car pitch over bumps and creak/groan badly

Even at Gingerman, which is much, much easier on brakes than Road America, the "upgrade" was a disaster. Ok, I admit to not bedding the new pads enough before the track day. That probably contributed to their absolute crap performance.
