Rating 5.0

I had never replaced a winshield in over 20 years of driving until I got my 2018 MK7.5 Golf Alltrack. Rock, crack, new winshield.

Bilstein Shock absorbers

Yes - they are different form the regular golf wagon. 55mm (AT) knuckle vs 50 (golf). definitely go with Alltrack-specific Bilstein B4 or B6 (not just OE replacement).

Pros: Alltrack-specific
Vehicle: Volkswagen

Nexen Tires

Been running Nexen Tires on my last '18 MQB and my current '21 MQB. These hold up great in the rain and in fast driving conditions. When it's raining regularly in Miami, I have never lost traction as these tires really grip the road.

Pros: great grip, hold up great
Vehicle: Volkswagen

Vredestein Tires

I just in installed 4 of the Vredestein Quatrac Pro from TireRack. They've been on for 2 weeks and initial impressions are much improved over the Giti's. They also have the 3PMSF symbol as well.

Pros: much improved over Giti

  • Noise:
  • Ride comfort:
Rating 4.5

another one for DWS06+. I put them on my Passat this past spring. They are absolutely comfortable. I don't believe there is much noise from them; maybe I'm unaware or maybe i dont look for it? But I can certainly attest for the comfort and grip. They are still on my car, and we've had some 1*C weather these past few mornings. Still very grippy when quickly merging out of side streets, and grippy when taking onramps. Had previous experience with DWS06 on my old 3G TL. Really liked them then also. That was the only car i've owned and didnt have dedicated winter tires for. The DWS were great in the winter time, and gave me no trouble in souther ontario winters.

Pros: absolutely comfortable, good grip, great in winter

Continental Tires

Hey, no these Continental DWS 06's are quite good in snow, not sure why any of the car nerds on here would even doubt their ability. I've driven them in 6/8/10" of snow before and have never had any issue--though I'm driving a 4Motion Golf.

Pros: quite good in snow, no issues

AMSOIL Engine oil
Muldermutt
  • Exhaust smoke:
Rating 3.0

I did have a 1982 diesel Jetta go 435,000 miles on oem int. shaft bearings. I had access to a lot of free Amsoil back then....so, that may have helped. However, I think it over-lubed the cylinder walls though. Rings weren't exactly what you would call 'tight.'

Pros: may have helped bearings last
Cons: over-lubed cylinder walls, rings were not tight
Mileage: 700065 km

Shell Fuel injector
gmctech
  • Idle:
  • Acceleration:
Rating 1.0

I took out the injectors and got a good look at them and they were gummed up, carbon caked and in horrendous shape, their spray patterns were like a straight stream. It was obvious at this point that they were the culprit.

Pros: beautiful spray patterns
Cons: gummed up, carbon caked
Vehicle: Volkswagen Passat

OEM Volkswagen Starter motor

Ive noticed during the day on a lunch run, when I release the pedal to pull away from a stop sign or light, the engine judders hard and lunges me forward somewhat aggressive. I think this feature really puts a strain on the starter too.

Cons: engine judders hard
Vehicle: Volkswagen Tiguan
