I use Mobil1 0w-40 and a Mobil1 filter. Haven’t had any issues. I’ve noticed that when my oil intervals where more far apart the engine would idle at 1,400rpms then feel like it raises it and lowers it like some of the sort. An issue that goes away once I put fresh new oil in everytime. It doesn’t interfere with the engines performance or anything but it’s something I notice on cold starts.
I got some Anco wiper blades for my mk3 jetta, I got them on rock auto for about $2 each. They're the high performance ones, I don't remember which ones though. They don't skip like the Bosch ones I had on it before did.
I have a 17 Jetta 1.4T with 5 speed manual. Bought with 40 miles and now at 66k. Car has never let me down. Never been to the stealership just bought mobil1 0w-40 oil at Walmart and Mobil 1 filter. Oil changes every 5 k miles since it’s best. Spark plug done at 60k no real difference. This little 1.4T is pretty fun for the size. Don’t underestimate it.
Front rotors are Stoptech slotted with Hawk HT10 pads ~90% life. Rear rotors and pads are OEM quality with ~75% life.
Tomorrow I will install a set of Philips 12834UNIX2 X-tremeVision LED Fog Light bulbs. Those are not junk and have a resistor already built in. I have those on my Accord and love them! They are only for fog light application and should match the LED Headlights.
Overall, the brakes feel pretty solid just from rolling it around in my driveway, but the car hasn't been on the road yet as it's not registered/inspected.
Monday night, I put Cooper CS3's on the front and balanced the garbage West Lakes that are on the rear. All 4 were surprisingly round and none of the rims bent. I can now get around corners faster dry and wet, and can oversteer the car pretty easily when near the limit.
Since the original Sachs were not available where I live, I went ahead with Bilstein stock replacements. One problem that i am facing is that no matter what I do, I am not able to get the front camber to factory spec.
Okay, so I installed a new aftermarket pump in my MK4 Jetta 2.0 last year. Went with the seemingly highly recommended GRAF metal impeller pump that many forum members across multiple forums seemed to stand behind... 14K miles later and it's leaking. Anyway, after doing some more research, it seems that it's considerably more common for aftermarket metal impeller pumps (especially GRAF, but seemingly all of them from what I can find) to fail prematurely for some reason...
