Luk Clutch kit
billymade
  • Engagement smoothness:
  • Noise:
Rating 5.0

I just installed a Luk "rep set" clutch kit with a brand new flywheel and it has been excellent so far, Luk was the oem for VW and my original clutch/flywheel/disc/throwout bearing were ALL marked "Luk" on them. I can confidently; recommend Luk if you want to stick with the stock clutch assembly. The original clutch has the quietest and smoothest clutch feeling, original style performance.

Pros: quietest and smoothest feeling
Vehicle: Volkswagen

Carbotech XP10 Front Pads Only - USED - $45 shipped to U.S. lower 48 -these are proper endurance racing pads (popular in Spec Miata, Spec E30, etc), I wouldn't try to use these on the street -used for 2 track days on my '09 TDI -11.6mm of friction material remaining (approx 85%)

Pros: proper endurance racing pads
Cons: not for street use
Part number: CX1107

Pirelli Tires

The general consensus was that 235/40 should fit just fine with no rubbing on stock wheels and suspension. Do keep in mind, PSS tires are a tad wider than stock Pirelli.

Pros: fit just fine, no rubbing
Cons: tad wider than Pirelli

STP Oil filter
Hoek
  • Warning light:
Rating 2.0

When I first purchased my VW, I could drive it how ever far in whatever temperature and wouldn't get any beeps or blinks. I brought it to a friend to do an oil change and he threw 5W30 in it with a STP oil filter. After that oil change, if the car was driven too long the light would blink and the ding would chime. If you revved to about 2300~ RPM, the noises and blinking would stop. I guess that is a temporary fix, but all I did was change the oil to 10W30 and haven't gotten any noises yet. I guess 5W30 is too thin and can't build up enough oil pressure? I'm not too sure.

Pros: 10W30 oil works well
Cons: 5W30 oil caused beeps
Vehicle: Volkswagen
