Now i have Hawk HP+ pads, great stopping power, lots of dust, noisy in day to day use, loud when heated and when using mild braking force (bearable), predictable bite patter not to aggressive easy to modulate breaking Great on the track for a mildly tuned car on oem breaks set up, did not fade, after first heat cycle.
no complaints on the couple meyle kits I have installed. seem like legit parts.
My last Oil change was using 5w-30 conventional oil. Which is much different than the 5w-20 Syn that VW uses.
The smoked Mk III fogs are one of the best looking fog lights of the era.
Many dealers use Castrol LL03 5W-30 and it makes a huge difference in MPG. I ran it for 7500 miles and had the oil tested.
VW uses castrol syn. 5w-40. With their filter, I think manufactured by Mann. I've been using that but just recently switched to lubro moly 5w-40 with a Mann filter
Just changed my oil @ 2k with Rotella T6. Sounds much quitters and feels a lot smoother. I've always used this and it's a damn good oil.
It's been a while since I last posted, but I finally ended up getting the sensor (g38) and replced it...I replaced the g38 in my jetta and P0715 vanished and has not returned, I have driven over sixty (60) miles and have started and shut off my car many times. I am calling it a success.
I have a 98 TDI with 269k and I had an 06 TDI with 131k. I have dumped the unfiltered engine oil after each change into the tanks of both cars since I've had them (Beetle, 98, got at 230,880 miles). They burn fine.
I have a 94 ABA 2.0L Jetta. Changed the oil and installed a ph2870A filter, took it for a drive and the buzzer would come on. The oil light come on..and at certain point at 4k rpm a 90miles under light load...flat road the light would come on...and then go off..
