Volkswagen parts reviews

Completed that mission. Big improvement on wiper placement. No more downward movement from resting position. Only issue I had is with the measurements \"between tips of wiper lips and upper edge of plenum chamber cover\". Manual says 17.5.on right side and 10mm on left. I have standard size wiper blades (22' & 19\"). I didn't make this measurement but know by looking at it, it's larger than 17.5mm If I were to lower the blade any further, the tip of the blade would rub against the right side cowl lip. These are 22\" bosch blades. Maybe the OEM VW blades are a little shorter and would allow a slightly lower placement. I'm satisfied with the turn out. Much better that what it was.

So, replaced the starter, and that was that issue.

Just reporting first snow, 6", with Sumimoto 205.60.16 Ice Edge snow tires on 16"Austin wheels, GREAT. Soft tire, slows cornering cheap really grips, comfortable.

I have 183k on mine here in the US. It's a V8. The forward Catalytic converter on right bank might need replacement (CEL light on). Front suspension bushings will need replacement from time to time. Otherwise, solid.

Just switched from the DWS to the MPSAS4 and the Michelin is by far the more performance oriented all season tire.

2020 Tiguan S - Goodyear Assurance . Quiet and smooth but 215/65R17.

K&N wiper blades. Honestly, pretty fucking decent on my gti. Color me impressed, no streaks still 6 months in. Curious to see how they handle winter.

I have a 2018 Tiguan and it started having the same issues every so often, then suddenly on the highway it went into limp mode restricting the engine to 4K rpm... turns out two cylinders weren\u2019t receiving fuel so those two injectors had to be swapped... under warranty thankfully!

I certainly would never put in a Fram and would highly recommend to anyone to stay away from that company for your German product.

Hate to be a neighsayer, but I've haven't been really impressed with the Nokian Hakkas. For all the praise they get on the forums, I was pretty disappointed with how they performed. I live in Central NY so we get tons of snow, so I got to test them out in a variety of conditions and they never really seemed to have traction. I had a set of 195 wide studless tires on my Golf. Upgraded to a GTI and the previous owner threw in a set of 225 studded Hakkas with the car. So I've tried these studded and studless, and have tried narrow and wide tires. I'm looking to try some Blizzaks this year if I can get my hands on them. A family member had them on their FWD Audi and the traction on them seemed really impressive; we were driving on a road that was completely covered in snow and he was swerving left and right and the car rode like it was on rails.
