Volkswagen Jetta parts reviews

Go optima red top, 109@ autozone with a return core (your old battery) They are expensive for a battery, but they are worth it. Ask anybody on vortex about them, they know.

My '03 jetta tdi just turned 84000, I have used the rotella synthetic 5-40 the whole time. I change it about every 7,000. I'm in the northeast. Last year it got down to 10 or 15 below quite a few times. It sounds like someone shaking a buckets of marbles when I first start it, but it smothhs right out and allways starts. Rotela is ok by me.

All these problems are not present in the Valvoline SuperSynth 5W-40 sample. Furthermore, the results from this Valvoline are well below the Universal averages for this engine. This suggests that I should be able to run this oil for at least another 1000-2000 miles and still get an excellent report out of it! With it, my engine runs bit smoother and quieter especially at idle. At high engine speeds the engine feels more responsive and more lively. Another difference is that with Valvoline, I am observing improved efficiency. My 2.0 broke its own record of fuel efficiency: 34.3 miles to the gallon on high way. The improvement is 3.3-3.9 miles per gallon compared to Mobil1.

I have the Pirelli Nero M&S. A very good tire in all regards. Quiet, smooth, decent ride, wet and dry capabilities, and they last a long time compared to MXes or Azenis.

I also change it every 3,000- 3,500 miles and use the Fram Tough Guard oil filter. it's all i have and i gotta keep it clean.

I have been running the larger filter for about 10,000 miles now- haven't had a bypass valve issue. I am using the same filter as a an audi/VW V6 30 valve engine. I do not know if that is the same as the diesel one though But- 62,000 miles so far, no valve lifter noise yet!

put in some good fluid, motul is awesome stuff but valvoline makes a descent brake fluid too.

i use 5w30 in mine and it runs great. really quiet.

The ones I had on my Jetta without fogs were just fine for the price I paid ....

Plugs, Coils, Maf, Front 02 sensor have been changed, I am not running motor mounts of any kind, my car feels so Unsmooth compared to other 1.8t´s I have driven this only seems to happen under low load... you can feel the cabin vibrate... not a lot but defenetely the steering wheel, pedals, shift knob. and the car seems to stop and let go, stop and let go (jerky) whenever I let go off the gas pedal in gear... it feels so unsmooth!!!
