Volkswagen parts reviews

A good option for budget minded summer tires is the Kumho SPT. Long life treadwear rating and decent performance at a great price.

The best bag for the buck is a set of Hella e-codes w. +50% bulbs like Phillips Vision Plus or Osram Silverstars. You will not be diasppointed w/ the perfromance. I've had almost every set of lights for a MKIV and I like regualr e-codes(either projector or reflector) over OEM HIDs.

does anyone have pics of HID Ecodes

I had BBS LM's on my 04 GTI (not an R32). 19x8.5 et 25 trying to remeber the tire size either 225/35/19 or 235/35/19.....i'm drawing a blank,but they where Toyo Proxy 4's and i liked them a lot.

I have 4motion (Passat Wagon), I still carry chains (RUD Centrax - also used them on my old S3) that fit the vehicle (front wheels only)

Just finished my 5K service. My dealer had never stocked the VW 507 oil! Special order for me. Anyway, your 2007 has the BWF engine where the fuel filter sits beside the motor on the driver side. in the middle of the four hoses is a torx head screw. Remove this and pump out (or syringe out as I did) about 100cc. Mine was perfectly clean.

Had mine replaced with Pilkington, very good quality (free as well...$0 deductible).

The insurance company in FL (where they have to replace it even with just liability) forked over around $650 to have mine replaced with the Pilkington glass.

the only advantage to the k&n is the reusability. for actual filtration, oem paper filters are better. power differences, on these cars, i dont think you will see any differences unless you are pushing over 325hp

DON'T put an FRAM filter! They are crap! Complete! When you remove an FRAM oil filter the filtering element (paper) comes off all mashed up as cellulose goo, then you know FRAM is a piece of crap!
