The car has 220k km on now, and VW has had to replace the high pressure fuel pump twice (2019 and 2021), and the in tank fuel pump once while dealing with random misfire issue that has since been sorted by yearly fuel filter replacement - fuel quality in my country is very bad.
Castrol Transmax Transaxle 75W-90 is my recommendation
I have Bosch in my 2015 currently with no issues for 30k miles so far
I've used Autolite plugs in the 2.0's I've owned for over 20 years now because I think they work the best of the ones I've tried with this engine.
I put a new battery in it. Because it needed one but then I changed the spark blood wires and it now acts like a brand new car, so go to your spark plugs first.
I use these on my Jetta, work great. Pads don’t last as long as OEM, but ????♂️
From what I heard they changed the pads on the 2020 because people complained the 2019 pads were noisy.
A few month after the gdi cleaner I started to get a couple misfire on cylinder 1 during startup. It was not bad enough to really noticed but would though an engine code then go away every other week. After some troubleshooting I came to the conclusion that is was probably my fuel injectors.
Tires Kuhmo Solis. Eh weird wear causing vibration.
The Hankook Kinergy GT’s are abysmal. I’m partially surprised VW hasn’t issued a safety recall on them.
