I got Rain-X, but they have been great, its been almost 2 years now too. I can't imagine paying much more than what the Rain-X were already being necessary really, unless maybe you are in chronically icy/snowy area.

Stock rotors are cheap and effective anything bigger is just for show.
I just had the same symptoms and it was the heater core. 2014 Jetta SE 1.8 TSI with 54K miles. I hope that isn't it for your sake.
Also the original equipment Bosch battery that came in my wife's 2006 TDI Golf when we bought it in 2015. The good ones aren't available anymore by the time they wear out.
With the spacer, the PSI's at ride height are ~10-15 lower in the rear. I'm happy with it. I think the +15mm has got the dual purpose functionality nailed. Air'd up, it's even front to rear, instead of the front being much higher.
In the end I just went with the genuine vw part from FCP. The original lasted 149k miles and I have never heard of an OEM pump leaking, just the earlier design impeller breaking apart. And I know that problem has been rectified through Vw. So as long as it holds together for at least 100k miles, I now have a lifetime warranty through FCP.
I put Bosch icon 24”& 19” on my 2019 jetta gli and they are absolutely amazing definitely recommend a little pricey but definitely worth it Super smooth and quiet and wipes great
Bosch’s are always great on VW’s. When I picked up my GLI the first thing I noticed was the unbearable squeaking of the wipers with every pass. They also were terrible at keeping the windshield clear even at max speed.
I replaced the front struts (bilistine B4 standard stock replacements) and front strut mounts/bearings and ball-joints. It's annoying that I'd already replaced all this stuff once but it was old and dead and needed replaced again.
This was a Hepu pump. With far less than 60k miles. I'm thinking the coolant had gotten too old. Can't figure why else the pump would wear so fast. Noise statrted after coolant change, am running an AC delete setup.
