MEYLE Brake discs

I've had Meyle Corrado G60 11.0" 4-bolt rotors on my 97 Jetta GT for two years, and they are barely wearing (plating is gone off the friction surface of course, but holding up well over the rest of the rotors).

Pros: barely wearing, plating holding up
Cons: plating gone off friction

AMSOIL Engine oil
Kelion
  • Engine noise:
Rating 4.0

I'm running Amsoil in my 06 GTi and loving it. No trouble with that I can tell, I check dipstick every fillup occasionally have to add some but not a quart, not even .25 of a quart. I've got almost 72k on the clock I did my last oil change around 67500 maybe a little more, and oil is still clean. Car sounds no louder or different from oil dealer had put in it.

Pros: oil still clean, no trouble
Cons: add some occasionally

ATE Brake caliper

The Passat 11.3" ATE 57 calipers are the same physical size as the 11.3" ATE DE 54s that came on 96-99 MKIII VRs. So any wheel that will fit over a MKIII VR 11.3" Girling DE 54 brake caliper should fit over the Passat 11.3" brake caliper.

Pros: same physical size

BRIDGESTONE Tires

I have the Bridgestone Potenza's that came with my car. I complained about road noise at 5000 miles and VW said "all the GTI's are like that". Then it got louder. So now the car has 16,000 miles on it. It sounds like a 747 is approaching the runway. I will NEVER purchase a Bridgestone product in the future. Anyone else have issues with the Bridgestone Potenza

Pros: good performance
Cons: excessive road noise, uneven wear
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 16000 km
