Yes it has worked well. No fan on it. 40K miles on it and only regular maintenance. LOVIN IT!!!
Denso IKH24 plugs gapped to 0.024". 6,900 miles. APR Stage 2 tune. Only issue was CEL error when we installed the Unitronic downpipe and flashed to the stage 2 tune. After troubleshooting and contacting APR, they had my shop re-flash to a stage 2 beta file, no more CEL error.
I saw a review of the GTI with the PP and the reviewer said the brakes on the PP are the same brakes used on the Audi S3.
I've driven both, and I do agree that the PP brakes do bite harder and give a more confident feel on the street. They (PP) feel bigger and more powerful.

VW recommend full synthetic 5W-30 or 5W-40. Some owners also use 0W-40 as well, it's easier to find on store shelves. Honestly using the right type of oil and changing it regularly is more important than the brand. Just don't buy the cheap store-brand recycled stuff and you'll be fine. People go back and forth online about brands and stuff but you're probably talking about fractions of a percent better one way or the other. If you still want suggestions: Mobil-1 oil and a Mann filter, there, I said it.
just did my belt and everything on a mkiv with a kit from there. Good parts and continental belts
Mann oil filter, it's want they use in Europe (and what VW recommends)
Only main issues I saw were leaking vacuum pumps, valve cover gaskets, pcv leaks (whole valve cover assembly) and water pump sepage.
I blame the part. I bought a Sachs 16v kit too, when I put a big spline tranny in my last diesel. Same thing happened in less than 5000 miles!!!! The rivet straight up FELL OUT!
