Volkswagen Jetta parts reviews

I run Motul in my 05' GLI and its amazing. Motul doesnt break down like other oils its good stuff

I run VW. 502 Lubra-moly 5w-40 that my local NAPA special orders for me.

The ride is very soft/smooth and quiet. Far superior in handling (obviously) and noise than the factory Michelin's were.

From personal expierence, the s.drives are a better tire, stretch slightly less but are a far better tire. the 512s are just good for stretching and thats about it.

As far as oil filters go, if things haven't changed since I sold my old Jetta, Fram, K&N and possibly others all sell the same filter made by Mann. They are literally identical to the Mann and original VW filters. Buy which ever one you can find for cheap.

Just put mine in today at the owners manuals advice, 15,000 KM. Castrol 5w40

So far I've replaced all ignition coils (1 died while I was test driving the car, the other 2 years after in the winter, of course). I decided to replace them all with non-faulty Audi parts instead of doing it every year.

I drive on Continental Extreme Contact DWS year round in a JSW. Great in rain, good in snow, and I off-road the car some and they handle that as well

I have the Generals on my jetta. I don't think they're as good as the Michelin MXV4s that came on the jetta (those tires were the greatest in the world). But they are close and for half the price.

The car takes a different oil filter (wix 57170). The filter housing has a center structure coming out of it that slides in the bottom of the filter (to keep it in place?) and the new filter doesnt have that. I sat there with a dremel for 2 hours and made the new filter fit. Success, but its still leaking the same amount of oil.
