Volkswagen parts reviews

This time around I used a Wix filter (which oddly has no branding on the can but is exactly the same as the Mann filter for these cars). I chose to use non-VW-price-gauging oil which doesn't have their certification but I am pretty confident would meet it: Zepro Eco Medalist 0W20. It's an excellent oil intended for small displacement turbocharged vehicles.

When it comes to buying OEM like wipers for my previous VWs, I always had good luck with Valeo brand wipers.

I run them on my Mk6 Golf R in STH. I would not recommend daily driving on them as they are very loud. They do have excellent dry grip but not the best as others are noting in this thread. These are a great starter tire if you aren't looking to get the best edge in equipment, or a good change of pace if you want to challenge yourself to be a better driver.

Finally swapped out noisy originals with Bosch Icon 24 OE + Bosch Icon 19 OE. Huge improvement. Why did I put up with the old ones for so long? Note - Icons come in three styles as referenced up thread, A or B versions will not work. The OE Version comes with multiple adapters, out of the box it fits PTB 19mm wiper arms. 2019 Jetta uses 16mm PTB (aka narrow PTB). So just pry the #2 adapter off the blade, click on the #4 adapter, and install on the wiper arm. Voila - silent wipes!

I have 40k on my car (30k on stage 2) and it's flawless.

Have been working great and they were cheaper than the OEM's.

I purchased from Ecstuning and elected to replace the whole control arm instead of just the bushings which I hear is a very tedious job. I went with the meyle lower control arms because a pair was as much as one of the oem. It is supposed to be more reinforced and heavy duty compared to the oem.

i had the same error pop up recently, drivers side was burnt out and passenger side was close. replaced them with this https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00U1OL44G/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01__o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 super easy fix and these lights match the color of the headlights.

My wife drove her 2008 Passat 2 miles per day for six years. As you can imagine, during these very short drives in winter, the oil became diluted - this was born from sever UOAs. So, I changed the oil every 1,500 miles and the oil and filter every 3,000 miles. Over-kill perhaps but based upon my personal expectations, worth the time and money. We used Mobil 1 0W40....which sheared to a 0W30 fairly quickly and stabilized.

Switched to a stock mk5 4cyl battery though as the Deka couldn't handle sitting for more than a couple days without being on a trickle charger.
