I tried this as one of four combinations of suspension on my 2015 GSW TDI. The B8's and Eibach Pro combo lowered my car about 1 1/2 \" front and rear. The handling was awesome but a bid too firm for the bad roads in my town...I'm getting soft in my old age. I loved the way the car looked.
levels dropped and signs of leakage. Dealer verified that water pump was leaking and replaced under warranty.
The Red stuff pads, no squeaking, rubbing, noise, cracking or uneven wear.
New plugs and coils went in and the misfire is gone. Sounds healthy too.
I also ordered a K&N drop in filter.
I honestly look forward to swapping to my downsized 205/55 16 winter tires (GSW) because they're noticeably less harsh and quieter than the stock 45 series Pirelli P7s on rougher roads.
Just passed the 1,000 mile mark on these and thought I'd share my thoughts on this innovative shock from Koni. Marketed as a "jack-of-all-trades" sport shock with bypass valves for a smooth ride over harsh roads and flatter cornering. Initially, the ride felt slightly firmer than stock, but over time, I noticed it's smoother over bumps and rough jolts. The car feels like a more premium German Sports Car. Big jolts are ironed out noticeably, making it smoother than stock, even if not softer. Slight waves are more noticeable as they don't activate bypass valves. Koni's add stability, preventing the car from being upset by mid-corner bumps. Overall rating on KONI's: 8.5/10. They are somewhat firmer but handle rough roads better and ride "richer" and more premium overall.
I recently ordered my 5W-40 Motul 8100 X-cess oil for my 2016 Golf R and the label changed and it now says "gen 2" on the front. It appears the first version of this will remain available for some time but Gen 2 is backwards compatible and still VW 502 spec and is safe to use but this version specifically addresses euro 5 / Euro 6 emissions on newer low displacement, forced induction vehicles that are putting down high horsepower so this oil is an improvement for the EA888
I have used Rs7 plugs (meh), the APR recommended NGK plugs (rough idle, gapped correctly), and the Brisk ER12S. I'm on my second set of the Brisk, and plan to keep using them.
Anyone with TTRS fronts has this problem? I definitely noticed this problem ever since I installed Audi TTRS front brakes. I also use Carbs.
