OEM Volkswagen › Brake discs

That being said, it would be great to see a basic writeup with pics of the fronts and rears being changed. I ordered and received some new slotted/drilled rotors with ceramic pads. When ordering, I just used the GTI as the model, since it uses the same brake rotors as the TDI, 312mm F, 272mm R - IIRC. If I have time, I will get some pics and write a rudimentary writeup on it. Not sure if I have time/patience to tackle this myself so I may just have my Audi/VW guy do the work (he has many more tools and 2 lifts). In any case, I will try to get some info and pics in here.

Pros: slotted/drilled rotors with ceramic pads

Cons: requires professional installation

Vehicle: Volkswagen

MOTUL › Engine oil

Engine noise:

Have you given the Motul Specific 502.00/505.00/505.01 a try? I switched to it years ago on my mk5 rabbit (140k miles or so over the past 5.5 years across 3 cars) with excellent results. It is a mid SAPS oil like the x-clean as well.

Pros: excellent results, mid SAPS

Vehicle: Volkswagen

Mileage: 140000 km

Bosch › Battery

The last two batteries I bought for my GTi, were specified for a Mk4 Golf/Jetta. Both of them were Bosch and they are both different sizes. Both of them ran me about $150 I went with the Mk4 batteries because Pepboys didnt carry for a Mk3. But both of them are fine

Pros: fine quality, good price

Cons: different sizes

Vehicle: Volkswagen

KONI › Shock absorbers

Body bounce:
Bottoming:

My Corrado has Koni yellow shocks at stock height and the rebound/stiffness is set right in the middle. It's a pain to adjust the rear stiffness, but somebody sells low profile knobs for them. The car is in storage so I don't remember if the rear spring perches are adjustable. I do remember that the car rides great and I can just adjust the stiffness in a few minutes (on the front anyway) if I want to corner flatter.

Pros: car rides great

Cons: pain to adjust

Vehicle: Volkswagen Corrado

Trico › Wiper blades

Wipe quality:
Streaks/chatter:

I just put the Trico blades on. They are not a direct connect, meaning that it won't just snap in. However, using the supplied adapter was no issue and to me, these are way better than stock blades. No issues lifting even at higher speeds.

Pros: better than stock blades

Cons: not a direct connect

Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf

ANCO › Wiper blades

Wipe quality:
Streaks/chatter:

I've got the Anco blades as well and have driven through some pretty nasty south Florida weather. Haven't had any complaints or issues with the wipers at any speed.

Pros: no complaints, no issues

Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf
