Rating 5.0

I got the Michelin Defenders (stock 17\"). Definitely feel better than the Pirelli Scorpion Verdes that came with the car IMO. Tig is quiet and smooth, handles potholes very well, even makes my dirt road seem very smooth and quiet. Rain puddles like they aren't even there. Snow like a champ. Drove in a monster snowstorm this past winter, cars were off the road left and right, plows just couldn't keep up with it... Tig was driving like a tank, non-issue. Summer driving has been fun too!

Pros: quiet, smooth, handles potholes well

Pirelli Tires

A few months after owning my 2018 SEL-P I wound up replacing all four tires. It shipped with Continentals and I replaced them with Pirellis, the difference in road noise was like upgrading an entire class of vehicle. It's not funny how loud the Conties were and how much quieter the Pirelli are at the same size/wheel/etc.

Pros: much quieter, huge difference
Cons: very loud

Pros: easy oil change
Part number: 06L115562B

MEYLE Control arm
MJG44
  • Stability:
Rating 5.0

I purchased from Ecstuning and elected to replace the whole control arm instead of just the bushings which I hear is a very tedious job. I went with the meyle lower control arms because a pair was as much as one of the oem. It is supposed to be more reinforced and heavy duty compared to the oem.

Pros: reinforced and heavy duty
Vehicle: Volkswagen Tiguan

Rating 3.0

On the topic of rear wipers has anyone else had issues with the OE blade? I had mine replaced under warranty because there was a big section not clearing water at 2k miles. The VW replacement blade wasn\u2019t much better now it\u2019s been a year and I just replaced it with a Bosch A383H which is a direct fit replacement. I\u2019ll have to wait for another good rain to test it.

Pros: direct fit replacement
Cons: not clearing water
Mileage: 3218 km
Part number: A383H

Mobil Oil filter

  • Warning light:
Rating 2.0

Mobil 1 filters are made by Champion Labs, which they use a louvered center core. The downside is, consistency, as the louvers have a tendency to be not be completely punched open.

Cons: inconsistent quality, louvers not punched open
