VW Beetles used exhaust manifold heat to warm the cabin.
Reviews of spare parts for Volkswagen
I already have installed front 345mm rotors and calipers/carriers/shields/lines) from a 2008 R32/Passat V6 4-MO. So that works.
You can honestly just run stock plugs on the 1.8 with OTS tuning for stage 1/IS20/38. I ran these same VW/NGK "RS7" plugs including track use for thousands of trouble free miles.
I emailed HAWK over two weeks ago. They thanked my for my contact and query, but haven't responded with a suggested product. I've been running their pads on my Mk6R and have been very pleased with the lack of brake dust and the bite of the braking.
Another vote for Alpins. I live in Colorado at 8000' elevation with over 300\" of snow...Avid skier etc and would never run anything else. The tire is so good in everything I literally run them all year round, carving canyons in July...rain every day in Oct/April...snowy commutes to the hospital in the middle of the night in Jan: no problem. It rocks in everything!
That being said I also ran Michelin and they handle extremely well in the snow.
Love love love my Alpins. They are no Blizzaks but the fact that they drive incredibly well in the cold dry roads adds so much pleasure to winter driving. I also don't need to commute so I just hang out for a day while they plow. They handle mild snow fine too
I have the same problem with my new Jetta just noticed it and its been hot in Mass so it could be the same thing..once it dries you can scrape it up like candle wax... Its actaully feels like candle wax without an odor. I assume it is normal...
Man I have this EXACT issue on my 2019 arteon, somewhere between 10k and 20k kms and Continental is telling me to fuck off.
I got rid of the Continentals because the rubber was way too soft. I was always getting flats in those tires.
