Volkswagen parts reviews

I paid $15 for the oil filter and gasket from the dealership. When I opened it up it says Mann on the filter. Lol I paid $35 for the 5w40 oil. Mann cabin filter for $6. Since it's at 40k I bought a engine air filter as well for $10..Mann brand. When I first got the car is was $50 which I didn't mind but then they doubled the price. The first time I changed it the filter was so bad, which made me believe they never changed it. Now since I do it myself it never looks that dirty.

Centric Premium Rotors front and rear: left as is Stoptech Street Pads: left as is

With the Arteon, and some pretty sporty driving, I am about to replace all 4 tires on Wednesday, with around 32,000 miles - the fronts are right at the wear bars and the backs still have a touch more

It crossed my mind to get into a battle with the dealer over a wearing part given the mileage but I figured the best i had to hope for was replacement trash. I used high quality Zimmermann rotors and EBC red pads all around. I’m out $400ish yes but i know i have good stuff on now that will last. Brakes better now than it ever has.

Been running them on my 2019 Atlas for for over a year. No issues, good tread life, and quiet.

Running Liqui-Moly oil with a zinc additive has been keeping my 150k engine sounding good through 5 track days with 3 years of highway beatings in between.

On my 2007 GTI when my stock shocks went I paired the Eibach springs I had used with the stock shocks with a set of Bilstein B6's and it was literally perfection.

I went EBC red stuff with slotted single piece rotors. They are okay, but not more than that. I pretty regularly drive them to fade on the street (I live in a very lightly populated rural area with lots of twisty roads).

What is your recommendation for winter blades? Already tried Trico Ice since they worked well on my other car but on the R they skipped and chattered.

I just upgraded mine a few weeks ago, ended up getting a DEKA AGM 9AGM47 More CCA and far more reserve capacity than the stock battery (120 mins) I was at ~35k miles and my OEM battery was failing fast.. I couldn't leave it in the accessory position without the engine running for more than a minute or two or it would barely be able to crank. The OEM battery is crap as far as I'm concerned
