Reviews of OEM Volkswagen parts For Business

O.K. I replaced the timing belt, water pump, thermostat, most water hoses, cap, rotor, rotor, plugs, air and fuel cleaner to start off with.

If VW won't cover the costs, then don't buy the VW rotors again. Tire Rack sells Centric brand rotors for our vans. These are the same rotors that Powerslot rotors use, just without the slots. They are about $50 each are a much better quality than the stockers. Yeah it's $200, but I would bet these will not warp like the stock rotors.

As for the brakes the S2 16v's should take it hands down.

water pump should be changed to metal impeller version at the time of timing belt change

But the MK2 brakes by far hands down feel better and seem to grab better. I'm not sure why that is, they are actually more worn than my Mk1.

For the misfiring check your spark plugs it can be that simple... i got a mkiv golf too.

Just swapped an r32 rack into my GLI. so awesome, totally notice a difference right away.

After an oil consumption test mine was using ~ 1.8l/1k miles. VW replaced the piston rings under warranty... we'll see how it goes

New throttle body installed...Currently there's zero difference between the old and new throttle body.

I changed the voltage regulator in the instrument cluster and the engine still loses power.. I realized that the engine loses power when it gets hot.. temperature gauge is just past the half way mark.. This means it IS the hall sender, yeah?
