GT Radial Tires

Currently running GTRadial Chamiro UHP1 tires and am about to install my 2nd set. They are CHEAP and almost as good at the Direzza Star Specs on my Porsche. I was shocked I got 20k miles out of them, they grip really well and don't get greasy easily at the track.

Pros: good grip, cheap
Mileage: 20000 km

Bosch Wiper blades

  • Wipe quality:
  • Streaks/chatter:
Rating 5.0

Bosch ICON You have to bite the bullet and spend $50 at autozone for the BOSCH Icons for your year and make. I just bought a pair for my wifes 11' Jetta SEL 2.5. They are also the ones on my 15' Jetta S. They come with a variety of adapters so they will definitely fit whatever style you have.

Pros: variety of adapters, definitely fit

Rating 5.0

On 02/18/2016 I switched the plugs with the Denso IKH22 at 15800miles. Jetta is more rev happy. No slow down throughout rev range, and no more pause hesitation between 3.8k-4k RPM. Just pulls, and pulls even harder. Also idle very smoothly.

Pros: more rev happy, no hesitation, smooth idle
Mileage: 25428 km
Part number: IKH22

Pentosin Antifreeze

  • Temperature stability:
Rating 5.0

Use the specified coolant I would use the specified coolant for the vehicle in which you drive and always use distilled/deionized water foreign or domestic! The cuts down on deposits and electrolysis from corrosion from using tap/ground water and or the incorrect coolant.

Pros: cuts down on deposits
Cons: incorrect coolant

EBC Brake pads

Alright, I will look into the Green stuff. I'm just not wanting to go too high, because I have many other things needing fixed on the car (80k mile service stuff, tires, check engine light. etc.... Trying to get it all done as soon as possible, using a little of each paycheck I get.) Autozone only carries Duralast... which doesn't have the best reviews on their website. And last time I did a pair of my brakes, they gave me the wrong ones and I didn't realize it until the car was apart. Quick question... Are these the exact same item, or am i missing a difference?: http://www.ecstuning.com/Volkswagen-Jetta_VI-Sedan-2.0/ES517817/ http://www.amazon.com/EBC-Brakes-DP...Series/dp/B001C8WOH6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1405277008&sr=8-1&keywords= DP21517 I ask, because ECS says they fit my car and Amazon says they don't. But they are the same Part # (but amazon is $10 cheaper and has free ship.). EDIT: Also, is their a DIY guide for doing brakes on the MKVI? I don't do a lot of car repairs myself (Limited time/bad back from wreck, that makes working on cars hard)... But I am willing to give it a try if I have an idea of what I am doing.

Pros: cheaper with free shipping
Cons: fitment uncertainty, wrong parts previously
Part number: DP21517

Duralast Fuel filter

  • Starting:
Rating 1.5

It was a pain in the ass gettin the lines off with pushing and pulling etc. I had a oem filter on there. Right now I just got one from autozone for the sake of being cheap. Duralast. With my discount was like 10$ Anyway its all back in there and snug. However the return line to the engine is clipped on and doesn't move if pulled unless released by pushing the clip in. But the line from the tank can just be pulled off. It's almost as if the clip isn't functional anymore. Both sides are pushed as far as they will go. I turned it on. Let it run for a few minutes. Didn't notice any leaks.. I can't see the line just "coming off". But it can come off without pushing in the clip if pulled hard enough..

Pros: cheap price
Cons: difficult installation, loose connection
