I used to use Mobil 1 (European formula) and was a good oil as well but when I switched to liqui moly the engine in that gti was running so much smoother so that’s why I only used liqui moly in my R as well
I've got an alltrack (same brakes as the standard gti) and I've got ate rotors from fcp with bosch quietcast pads from rock auto. I was just looking for stock replacement and they have 10k miles on them so far with no complaints.
I have a MK6 GTI and I replaced the Spark Plugs using the NGK recommended ones from Rock Auto and they were the OEM replacements.
225/55/17 are nokian entyre 2.0 which are "grand touring" all seasons i think they are more for cruising and comfort than sport and grip. Sadly they don't make them anymore (thanks Putin's war) and I'm about down to the 2/32 wear bars, I'll have to source another grand touring all season, i got about 40-50K out of them no complaints other than they got a bit loud in the past 10-15k.
I daily drive my GTI in the city. Someone on here recommended Continental DWS06 tires as an economical but still good option and let me tell you, they are awesome. I’m loving every second I drive with them in.
I have two gallons of this I've used in my 2009 B6 Passat that is leaking coolant. I don't drive it much, just once in a while. I just don't have the funds to fix the leak, which is likely the water pump. This coolant works just fine for me!
Guys, I have successfully retrofitted genuine SEL Premium LED headlights to the car. This was the most challenging retrofit I'd ever done, not because of the wiring, but because of the coding and troubleshooting.
i noticed that my coolant was a tiny bit low in early October. Well, when I took it in last Tuesday, November 24th, turns out that I needed a new water pump, and because there was a 5 year, 60,000 mile warranty, and 5 years had just passed, i had to pay ~$700 to have it fixed. so far so good after that, but I am going to write VWOA about it, because I was literally only about two weeks out of the 5 year warranty expiration.
The worst OEM tires I ever had were Kumho's. Shot at 30k and had been rotated.
So I sent it on a nice Bosch one. That lasted 3 months and just failed today.
