Volkswagen parts reviews

I have used both on our 1.8T and my GTI without any issues.

I live in Vancouver as well, and went up to Whistler/Squamish/Cypress in the snow last winter with my R equipped with my "winter" setup of Conti DWS 06 and it was more than fine. She handled it like a champ.

The brakes are a bit touchy at first. However as time goes on and they bed in they seem to be better. They are very well suited to back roads/canyon carving.

I did the OE sized StopTech setup on my car in July. I really like them. I don't have a lot of time on them, but I'm happy with them so far.

Replaced: oil filter (fram), oil 0-40w Outcome: Compression was restored and car started, loud valve train noise gone.

Changed it tonight. idles smooth again as before it was slightly rough.

Looks like overall fitment of the Mishimoto radiator was clean and straight.

Earlier, I complained about my old STi Driver occasionally picking up on my car’s own blind spot radars. I sent it in to Beltronics for a US$99 upgrade, and what an upgrade it was! I received an all-new STi Magnum housing, remote cord, carrying case, and several mounts. The Magnum’s traffic signal rejection feature worked well to keep the detector quiet.

I've had 3 issues with the car: 3. recently - replace alternator (the car just knows I'm about to retire it).

That crusty rubber seal was the press-in seal - the biggest problem with the OE VW version is that it's more plastic than rubber and it shrinks in the sun.
