Volkswagen parts reviews

Little bit too late, but i ma using the same tyre now. First impressions are really good, its quiet and comfort, acting well also. For that price i think you cant beat them with anything.

I've been running a Weber Carb 32/36 for 2 years on my Fox and I only lost about 1MPG, But I love it.

I'd buy a Valeo, but Valeo doesn't have a part number for the later Cabriolets and their catalog lists incorrect sizes. I bought my radiator locally, but I needed it ASAP and they happened to have a Valeo in stock

Really pleased with the new passenger (AC) side fan. The main fan is no longer spinning up to astronomic speed, and the AC seems to be cooling quicker.

Finished the install today. Everything is perfect. Eibach prokit + koni Str.t shocks = perfection for NJ roads under $600. 26" ftg all around and ride is a great middle ground between coilovers and stock suspension. Rides like a stock gti. Which is exactly what I wanted. No floatiness, but you don't lose your fillings going over bumps. Very controlled and balanced ride. This is a fantastic pairing and you will not be disappointed.

I'm using Mobil 0w40 (502 spec) in my B5 Passat for 140K and plan to use the same oil for my GLI when the free maintenance ends.

I use Liqui-Moly 5w40 and have with several VWs. Great oil, imo.

I've been alternating between the OE Castrol (with the free maintenance) and Pennzoil Ultra Euro 5W-40 (502 compliant and recognized/certified by Audi/VW) in 5,000 mile intervals. I've had both tested, and the TBN is higher on the Pennzoil and the viscosity always perfect (Castrol tends to read thinner than 5w-40 on the samples I've sent in for analysis).

I pulled the alternator to have it tested at o'reillys. Test showed it was dead so I bought a reman'd Bosch, but still needed a jump. Car fired up right away, but the voltage gauge still read low and just slowly dropped until the car died again.

I had my intake manifold replaced at 30k miles now I have 107k miles and they are telling me it needs to be replaced again due to some faulty vacuum flap....never hear problems like this with Japanese cars....
