I was running APR coils and went back to OEM. That helped. So did going to the Denso 5750 plug and getting an EQT grounding kit.
Pros: helped with misfires

I have about 45k miles on a set of EBC greenstuff and StopTech slotted rotors. I’m not hard on my brakes and my pad life is still good. Much lower dust than stock and roughly the same bite/engagement as stock. Maybe slightly more sensitive.
Pros: long life, low dust
Cons: slightly more sensitive

Pros: awesome performance, affordable

I have a non-pp GTI and threw on Centric blank rotors and powerstop z23 pads from Rockauto. Cost around $400 CAD including shipping and tax..super cheap.
No complaints about them, I would certainly buy them again. Very little brake dust but with a strong bite.
Pros: low dust, strong bite

I run Mobil 1 15w50 in Colorado in my 1.8 8v 85 GTi. For camshaft insurance I add a zinc additive at oil change time.
Pros: camshaft insurance

I like them overall and they mostly fit. Technically, the passenger mats could go in the so not fitting thread. I wish Weathertech made laser fitted mats for Phaetons but these are the next best so far.
Pros: mostly fit, like them overall
Cons: passenger mats not fitting
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Phaeton
Routine maintenance at VW dealer alerted me to tire cracks. Cracks would be an understatement. The tires had 14,000 miles on them. They are meant to be under warrantee. The local tire store and I phoned each Vredestein and left messages. I wrote the company three times. No response.
Cons: tire cracks, no response
