EBC Brake pads
Gti Fly
  • Braking:
Rating 5.0

I've fitted EBC yellow stuff pads (and standard VW discs), and I've found the braking performance to be amazing for road use. These pads were so much better than anything I've bought over the counter from VW.

Pros: amazing braking performance
Vehicle: Volkswagen

Castrol Engine oil
Alexey123
  • Engine noise:
Rating 4.5

I have an mk4 2.0 Jetta with 87.000 Kms (54.000 miles aprox) and when I bought it it came with 20W50 Quacker State oil in it... I knew it was not correct so I change it with Castrol Edge Synthetic oil... The guy at the shop told me that since VW engines run on high temps the recommend grade was 5w50... So far the oil has been great... There is zero oil consumption, the engine runs smooth and the temps are stable...

Pros: zero oil consumption, engine runs smooth, stable temps
Mileage: 87000 km

Castrol Engine oil

Just completed my first hands-on oil change on the GTI; used the German 0W-30 Edge, since VW still owes me one more filter and Castrol oil change in a few months.

GENERAL TIRE Tires
Lucidd
  • Grip:
  • Noise:
  • Ride comfort:
Rating 3.0

I have the Altimax HP on my jetta right now. They ride smooth, but has some road roar noise- but not overly bad. Handling is decent and wet traction is very good. Only complaint is that it has been balanced 2x now and I still have vibrations (only) at speeds above 70mph.

Pros: ride smooth, wet traction
Cons: road roar noise, vibrations
