I strongly recommend you also consider changing the shocks/struts out for Koni Special Actives. They are better than OE in every single way - performance and comfort.
Forgot to mention that I replaced the RS7 plugs with some APR plugs I had purchased. The gaps of the RS7 plugs were all either out of spec or on the cusp. The APR plugs are another heat range colder than the RS7s
Bosch is the only way to go. It's what I get for my 08 Rabbit. ????
I bought some Bosch Icon blades at Walmart.
Goodyear related: I remember the F1 dsg3's (IIRC) that were OE on the MK4 GLI 1.8t. being one of the best wet weather tires I had experienced up till that point.
I put ATE200 + Ferodo DS2500 pads on my Mk7 in prep for its one (half) trackday, have been on for a few thousand street miles and work well at all temps.
Even just driving 20 miles the OEM contis pctx and switching directly to the Michelins I can say they are definitely a more quality tire. For 1 the sidewalls on them dont create a worrying lip as if theyre stretched. The ride quality on them is absolutely amazing! Feel much more durable and going over normal bumps or the occasional pothole thats unavoidable gives me way more confidence. Also due to the stiffer sidewalls they feel way more responsive. Drove around 100 miles on them today and can say for certain that I will continue to be using these for however long I own this car!
After wrapping up and turning it back on the CEL/MIL light comes on for Aux water pump and they replaced that too the next day.
I had EBC green pads on my 21 CS-R, developed squeal and crazy dust.
On the other end of the spectrum, the eGolf sucks. It wasn’t good when new and I can’t imagine spending that kind of money to repair it.
