Volkswagen parts reviews

I like Michelin for nice ride quality tires for an appliance car. Replaced the Pirellis on our Tiguan recently with Michelin Defenders and they are as smooth as anticipated. Big improvement.

I put these on our eGolf back in Sept. Haven't had any bad weather but imo they are great. Way better wet grip than the oem tires. Ride is great, even having gone from 16s to 18s. Slightly more road noise, but I only hear it because my car is an EV. Economy has actually been pretty similar, maybe using a fewer more kw than before but not drastic.

Finished the flushing of the coolant system 3 times today then replaced the heater core. Refilled with VW G13 coolant, burped the system, ran it up to operating temperature and voilà, consistent heat once again.

I can confirm that the fog lights on my 2021 SEL P R-Line Arteon work great. I was driving from Seattle to Portland and passed through several areas of dense fog. The fog lights did a good job of lighting the road near and to the (front) sides of the car.

Since I've owned it, I've performed all the work listed below with genuine VW parts when possible. I've also flushed the oil with Liqui-Moly engine flush, and performed a Seafoam cleaning. Afterwards, oil was changed to Liqui-Moly 5w40 Synthoil Premium and new Hengst oil filter.

My oil cap says Castrol only, which is what my husband uses. We change the oil every 5000 miles using Castrol full synthetic.

I don't trust brands like Monroe or Duralast, so I was going to order some Bilstein B4s ($65.00 each) and re-use my old springs.

Very nice setup! I just installed the drop in K&N but too soon to see results. Although the placebo effect sure is nice at WOT but probably not as much as your CAI.

I looked at the brakes on our Tiguan, and it has one disc that is notably scored, same way. We just crossed 2k miles.

I believe that the the timing chain goes bad a lot. And is located in a spot that some people would rather just replace the engine after the chain fails.
