Hella Headlights
Marek K
  • Brightness:
Rating 5.0

OEM Volkswagen halogen headlights are your best bet -- at least these days. The ones VW actually equipped their Mk5's with from the factory have a VW logo on the shield in front of the low-beam bulb: He indicated there were several manufacturers that made those for VW as an OEM product. I'm most familiar with Hella, one of those brands, which of course is a world-class brand. Hella has also offered headlights on the aftermarket, that are identical to the ones they manufactured for VW, and tend to be somewaht cheaper. The only subtle difference is that those have a crosshatch pattern in the shield instead of the VW logo:

Pros: world-class brand, cheaper aftermarket

Continental Tires

Really liked the Toyo Observe. Micheline X-Ice and Bridgestone Blizzaks are highly rated. Since we just got into an Atlas, I ended up picking up a set of OEM wheels and Continental Viking Contact 7 tires just last week. Found a set on Facebook that were one year old. Continental seems to have good ratings but am not sure how they will compare to the Toyo I am used to.

Pros: good ratings
Cons: unsure how they compare

Wynn's Fuel injector

  • Idle:
  • Acceleration:
  • Smell:
Rating 2.0

Literally today my I was driving my Mk6 GTI and all of a sudden it felt horrific to drive, properly lumpy and then the EML and EPC light came on. Managed to limp it into a car park about 500m down the road. I read the code and had P0303 Cylinder 3 Misfire.

Swapped the coil from cylinder 3 into cylinder 2 and cylinder 3 was still misfiring, indicating that it’s the injector at fault and not the coil.

He said it was a sticky injector as it was running like shit and loads of white smoke, indicating unburnt fuel, was coming out of the exhaust.

Cons: running like shit, white smoke
Vehicle: Volkswagen
