Liquimoly is more expensive, sure, but that’s what I buy. Comes in a nice little kit with a filter and I know I don’t have anything to worry about.
I use Pennzoil platinum euro because its dirt cheap from walmart and meets all specs. 135,xxx kms so far on the same oil.
Bosch Wipers (very silent)
Laser iridium or ruthenium from ngk
I can answer that. i too upgraded my clutch in my 6R with a RSR kit from HS Tuning and even though my stock original flywheel was not too bad of a shape, i opted to have it replaced since i was putting everything else new. So i opted with the LUK version.
I'm night blind and my 2025 BE headlights are fantastic. I'm not sure if I'm half retarded, but it almost seems like the Matrix is activated from the factory. My menu has "dynamic lights" able to be activated, and they work great.
I just preemptively changed my 2007 VW golf battery at 120k...I probably could have gone farther but every now and again I would get a weird code that likely was voltage relative.
The pulley on my 2015 Golf failed last week, and I had oil (grease from inside the pulley, actually) all over in exactly the same location as your photo shows. Also, the protective end cap came off the end of the alternator pulley - I found it down below, sitting on the top of the plastic pan under the engine. With that cap missing, it is possible to look inside the center of the pulley and see the splines on the bolt holding the pulley on the end of the alternator. The bad news: VW does not sell the pulley as a replacement part, you have to replace the entire alternator, which is a $1,000+ repair.
I bought the more expensive delphi pump from rock auto after that and it also failed in about the same time frame.
