My 05' Golf TDI came with a Bosch unit from the factory and lasted about 90k or so, I replaced it with a Bosch Reman and its been doing well, 120k now.

Mileage: 120000 km

Sachs Strut assembly

Monroe != OEM. OEM is Sachs I believe. In actuality, Sachs OEM is probably better quality than any aftermarket manufacturer short of a full motorsports setup.

Pros: better quality than aftermarket

GENERAL TIRE Tires

I went with General G-MAX AS-03 for my GTI. I like them because they are still on the cheaper end of the market but have good consumer reviews and the warranty is better than most of the tires you listed. General has a cheaper touring tire but I wanted to stick to another set of performance rates AS tires like the stock Pirelli set that was replaced.

Pros: cheaper end, good reviews, better warranty

APR Intercooler

Rating 5.0

I chose the APR intercooler to replace my current intercooler setup (OEM intercooler with add-on Forge Twincooler). I have to say, after seeing pictures of the APR intercooler online then finally holding it in person, this thing is massive.

Pros: massive intercooler

Duralast Starter motor

I got a starter from AutoZone (Duralast - remanufactured from Mexico) and installed it myself. Anyway, I got it free, took careful note as to where all the wires were supposed to go and then set about installing the other starter.

Pros: installed it myself
Vehicle: Volkswagen

Denso Spark plug
BsickPassat
  • Starting:
  • Acceleration:
Rating 1.0

All the recommended denso plugs have the wrong gap. They list 1.1mm gap for the 2.0t The recommended gap should be .7 to .8 mm Plus the "20" heat range misfired a lot in the cold for me (about 20 deg F)

Cons: wrong gap, misfired in cold
