Volkswagen parts reviews

I just installed EBC slotted rotors and Akebono ceramic pads front and rear on my '15 Passat. You can believe I will be warrantying them replacing them through FCP when the time comes.

La única otra marca que consideraría seriamente sería Sachs, pero solo las cargadas con gas, diseñadas para reemplazar las unidades GTI originales.

Reemplace los amortiguadores con un juego completo de Bilstein B6 (lo que solían llamar HD).

Even though the mileage had not been reached, I decided that an 8 year-old timing belt was due for replacement. While doing that, I thought that replacing all the 8 year-old hoses would be a good idea too. I didn't realize how many hoses there are on this engine and how difficult it is to get to them and replace. At least I won't have to do that again for another decade or more since I replaced the rubber hoses with silicone hoses.

If you want an OEM original ride you can probably stick with the springs you have and get some Bilstein B4 rear shocks and front cartridges. Any other way will be stiffer and lower. This will have it ride about like it did when new.

the stock struts were blown out and the car was pogo'ing on large bumps at around 65k mi. Not sure how hard or careless the first owner was but I've never had struts go bad this early but I just replaced with Koni struts and H&R Sport springs. Otherwise, its been running like a champ with all major service kept up

The OEM Conti's get dogged pretty good on here, and they are not good if you want to tear around. They do cruise really nicely though, and I find them excellent in inclement weather. I am clearly going to get at least 60k out of mine minimum, so I'm considering them as replacements as well.

I have put General Altimax tires on my older hatchback and think they're pretty good.

2017 GSW 6MT 4Motion here with 35k miles. Nothing major to report. A few minor issues: - rear-view camera does not retract occasionally, making hatch access impossible - peculiar smell (horse manure??) for 1-2 minutes after starting the car - sunglasses holder does not do 'soft' opening anymore - rear cargo cover makes rattling noises

I hated the falkens I had on my GLI when I sold it, they did everything in a mediocre fashion but cost considerably less than the Goodyear f1 gsd3's and BFG KDW2's I had prior.
