Back to the actual tires, so far my completely subjective take is that they are indeed quieter and smoother than the factory Bridgestone Alenzas.
Volkswagen parts reviews
I’m running Zimmerman blanks with EBC redstuff pads, basically stock feel but no dust.
I did a oil change, fuel and air filter at this point.
I put Brembo rotors and pads on my mk5. I like them. The coated rotors are great. No more rust on the non-friction surfaces.
Then pair them with some Bilstein B4 struts. I have the B4s on my 2008 SE 2.5 and they're fantastic, especially for the price.
I have a 32/36 on my cabby. They all need a heat shield between the intake and exhaust manifolds, but all functioned well.
I live in Turkey vw service uses Castrol EDGE 5W-30 LL
I have a Tiguan 2015. I tend to get a waterpump problem. At first, I've tried to fix it at another workshop. Cost me $700+ with only 3 months warranty and in less than a year, the waterpump broke again. Tried fixing at the agent, they gave me $800+ with 1 year warranty and I was also able to claim it after 1 year & 2 months.
Check for brake pad deposits, VW uses absolute garbage for pads these days. My 2019 Alltrack has pad deposits at 9k miles (owned it barely 9 months, bought new) and they are only good willing 75% and I am going to drag them through the mud about it every chance I get.
Had the Pirelli P Zero on my 2014 GTI when I originally bought it, and they were probably one of the worst tires I've had the displeasure of experiencing (esp. in the winter).
