many thanks to this diy i just successfully replaced my unbranded made in italy POS coil with a brand new one from beru. gosh, as soon as i put that in and started the car it didnt start so rough. what a small but significant change, kudos and thanks!
I had a red top in my mk5 after the OEM one took a dump. It worked very well without any issues.
Rotella T6 is great oil (lots of STI guys run it) and I wouldn't hesitate running it in my R... except that it isn't VW 502 approved... so warranty is at risk if I had a failure in the engine.
I am running those in my car now and they are perfect!!
I can tell you that after my trip to Mexico to perform a few high speed tests and stops after the pads were bed in, there is zero vibration with this setup. The front end is rock solid under hard braking.
Stock springs with Bilstein TC = "Most Comfortable" Everything else is a compromise between looks, comfort and handling.
The Bilstein sports are a good choice for a cupkit. I think the ones I have are Bilstein HD. They came off my old vr gti. So far Im happy with them
I've got some Hankook V12 evo since april and so far I really like them. They stick to the road well and they don't make much noise. Not that great when it's wet thought.
I'll throw a lower temp thermostat see if I can get her temp to stay low as possible for now
i also get this! my car has 20k and I am ready for new tired my pirelli are crap! hopefully that fixes the issue...
