Did have my intake manifold replaced under warranty at 4k (~8 months of ownership). Has been solid since.
Got the Garmin dashcam mini2 Installed. Nice that Garmin makes the power source from the OBDII port so no hack wiring was needed. I can't even see it from my driving position. The Garmin app is pretty useful too
For reference, my 2017SE that I bought new and has been stage 1 since new car break in, has 197,000 miles on her. I last checked chain stretch maybe 3-4 months ago and was only seeing 1 degree.
I was running APR coils and went back to OEM. That helped. So did going to the Denso 5750 plug and getting an EQT grounding kit.
I run Apr front rotors with yellow stuff pads on my mk 7 GLI and it’s such an improvement in track day performance
I have a non-pp GTI and threw on Centric blank rotors and powerstop z23 pads from Rockauto. Cost around $400 CAD including shipping and tax..super cheap.
No complaints about them, I would certainly buy them again. Very little brake dust but with a strong bite.
I've got the B6 DCC on my 19 Golf R. Overall I really like this upgrade. I will say that I don't think the Bilsteins made a world of difference compared to the OEM shocks/struts, but the springs seem to have the car more settled and less frantic and ready to bounce off the road over every little bump.
I have used the R8 red top coils. I went back to stock coils after noticing a slight low speed low rpm hesitation. No misfire codes but it just didn’t run the same. It ran great when winding it out but I don’t do that all the time.
A/C compressor spontaneously sprung a leak up top a month ago.
I just replaced my 2015 TSI 1.8 after it lost all compression on #4 cylinder. It is IS20 turbo with the APR tune.
