Pirelli › Tires

emspilot 13 Jul 2016, 18:23

Rating 4.0

Noise:
Ride comfort:

I'm running the stock Pirelli P7's that came OE on the car. Currently have 7100 miles. Pressure set to recommended 37 Psi. Tires are quiet and smooth around town and on most roads. Quiet at HWY speeds as well, except on concrete where they seem to drone a bit. No perceived harshness (to me) on nearly all surfaces.

Pros: quiet and smooth

Cons: drone a bit

Vehicle: Volkswagen

Mileage: 7100 km

Carbotech › Brake pads

Noise:
Dust:

I have run the Carbotech 1521 on the street and can confirm they are low dust and noise, but not the most performance oriented.

Pros: low dust and noise

Cons: not performance oriented

Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf

Carbotech › Brake pads

Braking:
Noise:
Dust:

I just changed my pads and rotors at all four corners asI was always very unhappy with the stock pads and rotors; mostly because of noise in the cold and the amount of brake dust the pads made. Upon inspection of my rotors, with barely 30k miles on them, there was a startling amount of material removed and channeling from the pads. I would totally recommend you replace the rotors at the same time. I too went with the ECS slotted and drilled rotors with Carbotech 1521 pads and love the setup. Very quiet, very little dust and good performance.

Pros: very quiet, very little dust

Cons: stock pads noisy, stock rotors channeled

Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf

Mileage: 30000 km

NGK › Spark plug

Rating 5.0

Starting:
Acceleration:

I would strongly recommend using NGK PZFR5J-11 spark plugs. These NGK Laser Platinum plugs are the best option for your 2.5l. Not only are they pre-gapped and ready for installation, but they'll perform great and provide dependable service for several years.

Pros: best option, pre-gapped, great performance, dependable service

Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf

Part number: PZFR5J-11

EBC › Brake pads

Rating 5.0

Braking:
Dust:

I got the EBC Red brake pads installed front and rear. I ever so slightly cleaned the wheels the same day they were installed. So far so good. I haven't noticed any large amounts of brake dust. Stopping is great. Brake pedal is more touchy now. Overall I'm very happy with them!

Pros: stopping is great, brake pedal touchy

Cons: brake dust

Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf

VALEO › Headlights

AdamSheikh 10 Jul 2016, 17:58

Rating 4.5

Brightness:

Initial impressions are great. The color temperature is clearly whiter and brighter. Even just looking at the projectors with the lights on yields a much cleaner look. Output on the road is definitely whiter than the OEM's, but still admittedly a bit "warmer" than what I expected - but the bulbs are still burning in.

Pros: whiter and brighter, cleaner look

Cons: bit warmer

Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf

Hella › Headlights

BARELY LEGAL 5 Jul 2016, 23:19

Rating 5.0

Brightness:

So, I built these headlights a couple years ago for my R32. Basically I started with a brand new set of MK5-look Hella lamps, and cut them up to fit actual D2S factory MK5 Bi-Xenon projectors in them, and wired it all with theretrofitsource.com bulbs and ballasts. These are as nice as can be, and really have tremendous and clean light output.

Pros: tremendous and clean light

OEM Volkswagen › Water pump

Rating 1.0

Leaks:

I've a 2012 GTI with just over 9K miles on it that had a water pump leak on me yesterday. Took to dealer and got it back this afternoon. I live 2 miles from the dealer and drove home no problem. On the way to my parents 40th wedding anniversary dinner this evening no more than another 2 miles after I left home it had another major leak happen. The coolant reservoir had completely cracked and I had coolant all over my engine compartment.

Pros: drove home no problem

Cons: water pump leak, coolant cracked

Vehicle: Volkswagen

Mileage: 9000 km
