Volkswagen parts reviews

Switched over to LiquiMoly Molygen since 90K. Engine and transmission drives like new.

Sorry for the late reply. just to go ahead and close this out, it was a bad alternator. Took the 400 dollar hit to my wallet and bought a new one. Spent a few hours yesterday replacing it. So far I've driven it about 30 miles without the battery light coming back on. Thanks everyone for the help.

The tires are very nice; comfortable and quiet, very good in all the conditions the Northeast brings.

Ive been using the Brisk USA Premium Racing Spark Plug 14mm... yeah I get it they are kinda expensive when it comes to spark plugs at little over 13 dollars a piece but trust me they are worth it, ive never had good luck with any of the spark plugs listed for the 2.5l, specially not with what I've done to it, iridium plugs, platinum, copper, Nicole, even ruthenium plugs.... but these Brisk plugs are killers, ive never had my car run this well before, even my throttle response is better and the heat range is correct as well..

I picked the car up yesterday after having the Special Actives installed. AMAZING difference in the way the car rides and drives. Gone is the Toyota Avalon feeling, having been replaced by an Audi-like feeling.

Akebono Euro pads have mostly highway miles and no track, autocross, launching etc. Balanced perfectly with no damage flats etc.

My initial impression of the Generals is that they are quite comfortable. Compared to the PSS, I think they definitely provide a better ride in normal driving situations. I’ve seen this is chalked up to a softer sidewall, and I can confirm that. Noise levels are good too.

In spirited driving, I think the Generals are perfect for the street. The main detractor I noticed is that they are a bit more vague than the PSS in the initial turn-in before providing that on-rails feeling of holding grip through corners. My unofficial test for grip is seeing if I can double the recommended speed that you can see on a sweeping on ramp or exit. The Generals delivered without much drama. These tires are perfectly at home on a windy back road as well.

My 2007 MKV 2.5 Jetta is still having overheat problems even after changing the tstat to a OEM (Wahler) and the waterpump to one with metal impeller, which works way better than the original.

I have a 2016 Golf S AT, and love it, except for the 15" Bridgestone Ecopias which are terrible tires.
