Champion Spark plug

  • Starting:
Rating 5.0

For spark, I wasn't sure I had the right plugs so I went with the OEM Champion plugs that were recommended in the Bentley. I checked for spark, no issues there.

Pros: no issues with spark

Bosch Wiper blades
StreetGLi
  • Wipe quality:
  • Streaks/chatter:
Rating 5.0

I also live in Canada. I get the Bosch ICON blades that you can get from Canadian Tire. It's like 50 bucks for both and they're better than OEM. Usually get at least 2 -3 years out of them in streak free condition, depending on how bad the winters are.

Pros: streak free condition, last long

MSD Ignition coil

I have an MSD blaster 2 coil on my 93 fox and it works great. I went with this coil for convenience (bought at a FLAPS when my stock coil died) rather than performance, so unsure if there are any gains to be had (doubtful).

Pros: works great, convenient
Cons: unsure of gains

OEM Volkswagen Timing belt

After sending the car for service to change the timing belt, tensioner, and the water pump on my VW Fox 2014 (brazilian model, EA111 1.6 8V), I got this noise for the first 5min the car is on, then the motor heats up a little and its gone, no performance issues so far.

Pros: no performance issues so far
Cons: noise for first 5min
