OEM Volkswagen Brake discs

2008 Passat V6 4-MO front rotors, calipers, caliper brackets, and brakelines are plug and play. You get a factory BBK with 345mm rotors and calipers with a slightly bigger piston....as to not screw with the MC and brake balance too much.

Pros: plug and play

Bosch Wiper blades
LosSalvatierras
  • Wipe quality:
  • Streaks/chatter:
Rating 4.5

I've been running the OEM Bosch ones and I have been using the same set for almost a year and a half. Also garage kept and some time periods where no driving was done but they're still going strong. Maybe the rear is a bit worn at worse

Pros: long lasting, still strong
Cons: rear a bit worn

OEM Volkswagen Brake pads

The CPO contract goes into effect once I replace the worn brakes (pads and rotors) which can happen anytime- Service Rep said I can do it anytime but preferably soon (end of summer)- the brakes are fine to drive on now though

Pros: brakes can be replaced anytime
Cons: worn brakes need replacement

Rating 5.0

i'm using the liqui moly 5w40 oil in my R, as well as previous owner has also used this oil. I absolulely love it. i also used to use in my 11 GTI previously as before using this oil i used to use the mobil 1 0w40 in the gti, but since i've switched to the liqui moly the engine used to run so much smoother.

Pros: engine runs smoother

MOTUL Engine oil

I do have slight oil loss but I also track my car several times a year so it's to be expected. Recently switched to 5w-40 motul so we'll see how that does.

Cons: slight oil loss
Vehicle: Volkswagen

OEM Volkswagen Brake pads
Gunship
  • Braking:
Rating 1.0

Back from a 5 day trip and my car was parked with the park brake on. ( Auto brake) The result was the pads stuck ( rusted?) onto the discs. I had to speed up to "break" them loose. Pathetic quality!

Cons: pads stuck onto discs
Mileage: 21000 km

OEM Volkswagen Water pump

I have a MK6 and a MK7 and they both suffer the same crappy design. Making a water pump primarily out of plastic is just a bad idea. My MK6 is on at least it's third water pump at a little over 100k miles.

Cons: crappy design, plastic parts, poor reliability
Mileage: 160000 km
