Reviews of OEM Volkswagen parts For Business

I did the timing belt water pump thing on my MK4 last year, and shortly after the test drive with fresh genuine VW antifreeze and while patting myself on the back for a job well done it occurred to me that I hadn't changed the thermostat. Sure enough a month or so ago when the first of the really cold whether started around here the temp gauge would only get to about halfway to normal during a trip to town and back. I tried the ol' cardboard in the grill routine for a couple of days until I got a chance to change the thermostat and that brought things back to normal.

Glad you used lock tools. You could always reinstall tools to check. But if pin was in crank and bar installed hard to screw that one up for belt.

I knew the DSG suited the Golf R better, but I got one with a manual because it will be the desirable one in 20 years

So problem was solved and car is now stage 1 and runs great last 15000km. problem was faulty injector. We have swapped injector with right one and as I said car runs great.

OEM VW. Price is the same or lower and they fit without any adapter

I feel no difference in pedal feel or stopping distance. It's the aesthetics that made the difference for me.

Well, years ago, I purchased a dui Mk. II Golf which had been slid sideways and kissed a curb or something. Anyway, I learned that cast iron will, indeed, bend. The lever arm on the spindle (where the tie rod attaches) had actually bent in the arc when it made rather swift contact with the curb.

I had to replace my brakes early as well, and I was also past the extended warranty campaign.

I just came across a recent problem while doing my spark plugs at 80,000 miles. The dealership was the one that did my spark plugs at 40,000 miles. Sure enough, they broke Cylinder 3\u2019s wiring harness connector to the coil pack and stripped the bolt. I had to helicoil the bolt, replace the connector, and repin the connector.

Turbo 2 of them oem. Water pump 2 of them oem. Can't say I was happy about being forced to switching to toyota corolla hatch.
