NGK Spark plug

I got the plugs in just fine, and since this was the first time they had ever been changed, the originals were still there. Aside from having the Audi/ VW logos printed on the topside of the plugs' insulators, these are regular ol' NGK PZFR5D-11 plugs (stamped on the metal). The new ones I put in were pre-gapped at .040, and the old, worn ones were at .044 for the passenger-side plugs and at .043 for the driver-side plugs. I'm guessing that the elevated distance/numbers reflects natural wear and metal erosion over time.

Pros: fit just fine
Cons: worn old plugs
Part number: PZFR5D-11

MICHELIN Tires

My first set of marketed LRR tires were Michelin Energy MXV4+ on my MKIV Golf. Admittedly they were great tires in dry and wet until they had some miles on them and went to hell in a handbasket.

Pros: great tires in dry and wet
Cons: went to hell in a handbasket

Monroe Shock absorbers
speedbump2
  • Body bounce:
Rating 2.0

My '04 VW Golf R32 came with Monroe shocks on the rear as OEM. They were 'floaty' feeling after less than 10k miles. I put a total of 25k on them before I just couldn't stand it anymore.

Cons: floaty feeling
Mileage: 10000 km
