Bought some Koni Special Active s truts and shocks (hoping to get softer-than-stock ride on all the high-frequency cracks and potholes) and also looking to replace all the coil springs.
Reviews of spare parts for Volkswagen
I did get new wheels and tires and couldn\u2019t be happier. The 205/55s are a better choice for general use, being much quieter overall and considerably less harsh on city streets, while keeping very solid highway performance.
I ordered a Depo drivers side unit. It came yesterday and I installed it today. Quality and fit and very good. The bulb out warning light on the dash eventually went out.
I personally replaced the water pump on my Tiguan with a Graf aluminum pump. The only issue I've had was the rubber o-ring on the temp sensor leaking. I replaced all the rubber seals with Rein branded ones and no more leaks.
I just put them on a new set of 18x8.5 forged wheels I bought for my 2022 VW Golf GTI Autobahn. We had a snow store two weeks ago and I was getting stuck because of the summer tires. So far since the snow storm we had rain storms, ice storms as well as a lot of snow that remained. All the snow that remained was where cars parked. The plows pushed the snow that way. A lot of cars were stuck and had to be dug out. But a bunch of snow remained. I was able to drive through in and out of parking spots with lots of snow like a tractor.
Did you change the coolant temperature sensor?
I had General Altimax Arctic 12 (studded) on my Golf Sportwagen and loved them.
My wife has ExtremeContact DWS 06 in her car and the car feels floaty. I think it's these ExtremeContact just have softer sidewalls.
My factory blades were crap when I bought the car, I think it sat on the lot to long. So I replaced them with Bosch Icons, but those were cracking in less than 4 months (4K miles), so I’m back on new OEM wipers.
I looked at my wife’s Tig and they look bad as well only 3900 miles.
