MICHELIN Tires

Went to Michelin Pilot Sport AS's and never looked back. My Passat has the same tires (only the never model, AS4's I think) and they provide excellent road holding (it has the VR6, the continentals were absolute trash at holding the power down).

Pros: excellent road holding
Cons: continentals were trash

Castrol Engine oil

2014 VW Passat 1.8TSI engine. 249k miles. Did the recommended oil change at every 10k until 125, then every 5 k. Transmission fluid change every 80k, looking back, will switch to 60k, just to be safe.

Pros: regular oil changes, transmission fluid change
Cons: dealer flushed coolant, clogged core
Mileage: 249000 km

Mannol Engine oil

Mannol ist okay. Denke wenn man es regelmäßig wechselt, auch vor dem offiziellen Intervall, dann ist es nicht schlechter als Markenöl. Hab sogar damit besser Erfahrungen gemcaht als mit Liqui Moly, Castrol oder Shell helix.

Pros: nicht schlechter als Markenöl

OEM Volkswagen Fuel pump

Rating 2.0

Took great care of my Passat. Recommended oil change interval 10k; I changed every 6k. All oil and fluid changes at the dealership. I only did the filters, spark plugs and serpentine belt.

Problems -

Purge valve has to be replaced at 40k (warranty)

Control arms at 45k (warranty) + alignment

Fuel pump at 62k ($1600)

Entire cooling system replacement at 64k ($3100)

I believe hot weather and cheap plastic causing more harm to this car.

Pros: oil changes at dealership
Cons: fuel pump, cooling system
Vehicle: Volkswagen Passat
Mileage: 62000 km
