Zimmermann › Brake discs

vwjunky18t 8 Dec 2016, 21:17

Rating 4.0

Braking:

I went with Zimmerman Rotors and EBC Red Stuff pads from NGP. Not slotted or drilled, just a quality German made rotor. The material quality difference is evident. My only complaint is the Red Stuff pads do make more brake dust, but its a pretty minor grievance. The rotors were also coated to prevent unsightly rusting.

Pros: quality German made rotor

Cons: more brake dust

Vehicle: Volkswagen

Mileage: 19000 km

Trico › Wiper blades

baldbunny 8 Dec 2016, 00:30

Rating 5.0

Just installed Trico Ice wipers on my car and they fit perfect. Watched the video on the Trico site for narrow arm push button, did the replacement B/C adaptor, threw away the piece they said to do and BAM, fit like a glove. No stealership here!

Pros: fit perfect, easy installation

Vehicle: Volkswagen Jetta

Bosch › Wiper blades

I just replaced mine yesterday, same ones you got (Bosch Icon 18OE & 26OE). Popped the right adapter on, and were on the car in minutes. It took a bit, but I tracked down the Bosch A282H for the rear. It's on the way, so I'll know in a couple days if it fits, based on the comments on Amazon, it should. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0042ETBEQ/ I read somewhere that the OEM blades for the R were made by Bosch - and after comparing the two side by side, I'd have to say they look almost identical. The only major difference was in the clip, but that's to be expected since the Icon's have to use adapters to fit multiple vehicles.

Pros: fit in minutes, look identical to OEM

Cons: adapter needed

Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf

Part number: A282H

OEM Volkswagen › Valve cover gasket

jddaigle 7 Dec 2016, 02:58

Rating 5.0

Along with the diaphgragm valve (see the links above) you'll need to replace all the gaskets you disturb, namely the valve cover gasket (part no. 03H 103 483 C) and the gaskets that seal the upper intake manifold to the lower intake manifold (4 x 03H 133 237 G and 2 x 03H 133 237 J).

Vehicle: Volkswagen Passat

Part number: 03H 103 483 C

Nexen › Tires

Rating 4.0

Grip:
Noise:

I ran Nexen N-Fera SU1 on my GTI this summer and they were great. Wet/Dry performance for the daily driver was great, noise wasn't an issue either. Seem to be wearing well.

Pros: great wet/dry performance, wearing well

Cons: none

Vehicle: Volkswagen

Cons: no messing with adapters

OEM Volkswagen › Shock absorbers

Bottoming:

I think it is very likely that your low front end is caused by the wrong shocks being installed for the heavy W8 engine.

Cons: low front end

Vehicle: Volkswagen Passat

OEM Volkswagen › ABS sensor

MomoCC 9 Jul 2015, 16:36

Rating 3.0

False activation:

I had the exact same thing happen on my '13 CC just last month. As one post noted, it turned out to be a bad ABS sensor in the rear right.

Cons: bad ABS sensor

Vehicle: Volkswagen

Luk › Clutch kit

VW Schmidt 21 Sep 2013, 01:26

Rating 1.0

Slip:

I replaced the disc with LUKs kit and also had my flywheel resurfaced to be safe. The new set-up has about 300 miles on it and continues to slip. Most noticeably around 2700 - 3400 rpm in 3rd and 4th gear. I can feel it seem to slip then catch and gain a magical 15 hp. I have not allowed the clutch to slip enough to have glazed the clutch disc so that's not a possibility, and my "auto" adjusting clutch cable seems to be okay (I can push the transmission arm downwards and the clutch cable spring returns it to the 9 o'clock position). Proper torque specs and sequence were followed and everything was extremely clean upon installation. Also there are no leaks so there is no fluid getting on the disc. New clutch disc, re-surfaced flywheel, new rear main seal, new pressure plate.

Cons: clutch continues to slip, slips in 3rd and 4th gear

Vehicle: Volkswagen Jetta

Mileage: 483 km
