Hawk Performance › Brake pads

Tylpt 23 Jul 2020, 16:40

Rating 5.0

Braking:
Dust:

I had about 21,000 kms on my GLI and noticed a little bit of vibration at higher speed braking. I was sick of the OEM pads dust so I swapped out the pads to Hawk HPS street 5.0's. The front rotors had a ton of wear on it for a relatively new car. I heard from a few shops that the OEM pads eat rotors. I decided to change the front rotors but kept the rears as there was hardly any wear on it. Brake pedal feels much more solid and next to no brake dust and better braking power. Great upgrade and strongly recommend.

Pros: better braking power, less dust

Cons: front rotors wear

Vehicle: Volkswagen

Mileage: 21000 km

Overheating:

Independent mechanic noticed leak. Dealership confirmed the thermostat was cracked and leaking. Took a week for parts to arrive. Took a day to repair. All covered under warranty.

Pros: covered under warranty

Cons: cracked, leaking thermostat

Goodyear › Tires

Grip:

Went with Goodyear WinterCommands in 215/65/17 on VW steel rims. Worked them into the deal when we purchased the Tig. Definitely didnt want to run 19s in the winter.

Pros: Goodyear WinterCommands

Vehicle: Volkswagen Tiguan

OEM Volkswagen › Water pump

Rating 5.0

I had my water pump and thermostat replaced recently and they did remove the intake manifold and replaced the gasket in order to gain access to the water pump assy.

Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf

Continental › Tires

brianbgw 21 Jul 2020, 03:55

Rating 5.0

I think the question you really want to know the answer to is what is the load index on factory 17” tires...my 2018 SE has 17” Continental Procontact TX tires with a load index of 99 (1709lb or 775kg).

Pros: load index of 99

Vehicle: Volkswagen Tiguan

NGK › Spark plug

B5Speedo 17 Jul 2020, 21:47

Rating 4.0

Idle:
Acceleration:

Got new NGK BKR8EIX pugs today and gapped them to 0.024". Originally, 0.030" according to my gauge. Very surprised when I removed the old plugs as they were all at varying degrees of tightness even though they were originally torqued to 25NM. Car runs great with the new plugs. No complaints so far.

Pros: car runs great

Cons: varying degrees of tightness

Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf

Mileage: 20000 km

Part number: BKR8EIX

RAVENOL › Engine oil

quailallstar 17 Jul 2020, 15:46

Rating 4.0

Has anyone here tried Ravenol yet? I've been using Liqui Moly's TOP TEC 6200 VW 508/509 but read around that this oil below is also good if not better.

Pros: good if not better

Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf

Pirelli › Tires

Fencesitter 17 May 2018, 00:58

Rating 3.0

So I went ahead and purchased a set of Pirelli P Zero. What I am concerned about is that when I asked about the DOT date, the guy at the tire shop told me that the tires were made in the 24th week of 2016.

Cons: tires are old

Vehicle: Volkswagen

KONI › Shock absorbers

MikeinNJ 2 Jul 2016, 00:11

Rating 2.0

Body bounce:

i have the Koni STR.T and Eibach Prokit combo and have had it for about 2.5 years/30k miles. I'm currently looking at either Koni Yellows or Bilstein B8 shocks. The Konis were great for the first year, but after the first year, the rear shocks failed. Now the fronts are getting very rough and feel bouncy like when I had the Eibach prokit springs on failed stock shocks/struts.

Pros: great for the first year

Cons: rear shocks failed, feel bouncy

Vehicle: Volkswagen

Mileage: 48280 km
