the comfort quiet vibe of the Toyo Proxes but want to try something different in the same price range, the Continental TrueContact Tour is honestly one of the best upgrades you can make for a Golf 4 TDI. It rides smoother than the Toyos, has way better wet grip (big deal for lighter hatchbacks), and the tread life is noticeably longer.
Traveling at 65mph on open road and a coyote comes running onto the road right infront of me from the open field. Slammed the brakes and got down to maybe 15mph, probably the quickest ive braked ever. Thanks EBC pads and rotors!!
I've just changed the timing chain on my Polo and one reason is the different torque.
When did you last change your air filter? Do you know that you have good flow into the turbo intake side?
I had Pirelli's on my VW and Hyundai and I never lost traction in the winter.
Starter solenoid. It's the bit that engages the starter gear and switches on the starter motor when it receives power from the ignition switch. It could be not getting enough voltage due to a bad connection at the small terminal on the solenoid.
I bought a new FEBI expansion tank without the silica bag. I just found out i shouldve used G12 evo instead and G13 is a disaster on these cars.
I had a front wheel drive VW Golf GTI with an ECU tune. My front tires lasted about 25k km.
My first car was a Volkswagen Passat. I was on a budget and got a good deal on a really nice car. It was a dream to ride, except when everything kept going wrong. I went through multiple ignition coils, the car caught fire (bad coil, again) and had thousands in damage. Beyond that, getting tires balanced wasn\u2019t a simple job. Everywhere needed to special order shims from Germany because that\u2019s the only way a Volkswagen tire could be balanced.
B5 Passat (and Audi A4, same gen), 1.8T.
Filter - a big-ass 1.5 liter spin-on - mounted at an angle, directly above the front subframe.
Remove from top, after relocating the coolant tank.
Strategically use absorbent mat (floor diaper) to contain the inevitable spill.
