Bosch Spark plug
Usual-Mistake5717
  • Starting:
  • Acceleration:
Rating 5.0

Update: went Bosch for the plugs and ngk for the coils, the manufacturer plugs and coils were still in as if no one has touched them since the car was bought, I’m the third owner I believe. Each spark plug was toasted, easily double the recommended gap, and once I put the first two coils in (pulled code P0300, P0301,P0302) the problem entirely went away (coughing and sputtering exhaust, slow to accelerate, car shaking between 20-40 mph, rough starts) so I knew it was a go ahead for the rest of the coils. Feels like a whole new car all around, I can tell the engine is thanking me by what she’s putting out now ????

Pros: problem entirely went away
Cons: spark plug was toasted
Mileage: 179000 km

Hella Horn
ASE-84
  • Loudness:
  • Tone:
Rating 5.0

Yes ... the stock horn is an absolute joke. People actually laugh thinking the sound is coming from a Moped. A single Hella SuperTone Horn fits perfectly ... can use original mounting location. There is NO ROOM for anything much larger.

Pros: fits perfectly, easy install
Cons: no room for larger horns

OEM Volkswagen Engine oil

Part number for the oil: G055512A2 $14 (x2) O-ring: N90362001 $4 (x2) Paid ~$38 total Yeah my dealer is about 40 minutes away so I bought two in case I want to order oil in the future and do this again sometime...or if it leaks for some reason and I have to drain/refill, I just didn't want to drive back.

Pros: bought extra o-rings

OEM Volkswagen Brake pads

I need to change my brake pads and rotors soon. I'm using ECStuning, because it's the best place that I know of. I'm looking for OEM, don't need anything fancy shmancy. What are the differences between https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-volkswagen-audi-parts/economy-brake-pad-set-front/jzw698151/ and https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-volkswagen-audi-parts/front-brake-pad-set/5c0698151/ ? The 2nd one says without pad wear sensor, do I even need that? First one barely has a description, I don't even know which I should grab. Secondly, does my 2013 VW Jetta S 2.0 have rotors or drums in the back? I think I have rotors in the front? If rotors, what size do I even need because ECS is telling me I need 280x22, but deutsch auto is telling me a different pattern.

Cons: unclear part description, conflicting size information

MICHELIN Tires

I put the CrossClimate2's on my 2015 Jetta TDI. 4% loss in fuel economy. Not only that but the car lost it's precise on center feel and required much more correction to keep in straight. Feels like driving on underinflated snow tires. I hate them and will replace them with the OEM Bridgestone Ecopias.

Cons: loss in fuel economy, lost precise feel

metal impellers definetely can eff up your setup. I had one on my 2.0 jetta. and it completely froze, and caused me to overheat, which killed my headgasket. The engine never fully recovered from that.

Cons: overheat, killed headgasket
