As someone who lives in New England, I've had my best experiences with VW's OEM wipers and PIAA super silicone. Bosch icons were a close 3rd.
Volkswagen parts reviews
My first car was a 1.0L polo with 50hp and 99mph top speed. Any time I was in a hurry to get somewhere I would be doing sustained 6k rpm for hours at a time. I did frequent oil changes so I think helped the engine survive but it did wear out the valve stem seals so it smoked a bit on startup.
mine was just an oil pressure sensor- $20 and 4 minutes of time. That is absolutely the first step i would take, if that doesnt resolve the issue then it could be something a lot worse like metal shavings (meaning internal issues that would be a lot more urgent) in the oil pan/pickup tube
When I had dino burner cars, I did all of my own work, and always used Bosch Platinum plugs for my specific engine and heat. Iridium last the longest life, but are more sensitive to getting hot and causing pinging.
Love the set up this is what I will be forced to do with my front 2 piece rotors in front will help with heat for sure and ceramic pads you will have zero issue's as all problems were cause by factory pads.
The rear rotors with the power stop ceramic pads are just like they were installed at 20,000km brand spanking new and smooth just like day one no feedback just proper brake function.
I now have Firestone Indy 500s and am quite pleased with them.
I've done the swap on my Tiguan for the front. There is no performance benefit, they are identical brakes with the exception of the R emblem plate and the pads are dustier on the R (same size but different brand).
Tire is rubbing! (only when I turn) My attempt at rectifying the problem. Installed BFT fit blocks and it still rubs. Cut the fender liner and it still rubs. I returned the wheels and tires.
Now my check engine light is on and I\u2019m just over 5000 miles in a 2019 SEL R-Line. The code says weak knock sensor 1 signal same code as before.
