Volkswagen Golf parts reviews

hardened steel tool pin. no flimsy rolled pin.

I used Mobil 0w40 in mine all the time

Garrett t3t4 here, NO restrictor. 3+ years and no issues.

got the stock timing belt parts in and replaced the hack job that I had for hte mk1 mount back to all the stock mk4 thicker tdi timing belt - got rid of the 16v style mounts and back to all of the appropriate covers.

Used to run 195/40/17 Toyo's on my mk2.

i think it's possible to find smaller than 205/40 but not easily or cheaply.. i think you can get 195/45. however the falken 512 (which you can now only get from discount tire on ebay) is much smaller than most 205/40's. it's what i run on my mk3 and they are much smaller than the set they replaced.

The 9s are single adjustable. They adjust rebound AND compression in the same direction, at the same time. The PSS kit is about a 2-3 on the scale of 1-9 according to both Bilstein and my own personal testing. The 9s can deffinetely be softened up considerably and ride quite well on the softer settings.

I bought Nexen tires for my MK4 (which is for sale BTW ) and I love them. They are great all around tires. I plan on buying them for my mk5

I have a clunking noise coming from my front brakes, whenever i hit a bump. This has been ruled to be the outside pad moving around in the caliper. Pretty much everything else in the front suspension has been changed, so i'm pretty sure it is the pad. Mechanic had the car yesterday and said everything looks tight as well. The car stops fine, and there's plenty of pad wear left so i'm not going to switch out the pads or anything. I was hoping someone could chime in and let me know if there's something that can be done to get rid of the "clunk", or do i just live with it. Anyone else ever have this issue? FYI, It's a 2000 Golf with Hawk HPS pads.

cut a few fram filters before and they were horrid. if you do use a fram filter, use the Xtended Gaurd, much better then the fram PH filters
