aka_deno said: Here you guys go. recorded it this morning. Sorry there is no sound other then me walking around the front of my car lol. First is DRL's only. Headlights witch in Off or Auto mode. The LED's turn off on the side when a blinker turns on (Not in video) but you can disable this in vagcom. (I like the LED's off during blinker, looks more OEM) THen Parking lights or running lights whatever you want to call them. LED's stay ON with blinker. Then Low Beam (This has the Pre-installed HID kit with 5000k bulbs. Wish they would offer 4500 as the 5000k is a whiteish blue, i like OEM 4300 or 4500 where its true white white, with a tad of yellow) The cutoff line is deep blue for some reason when i am driving around. Then High beams. I also have Lamin-x on the headlights, put that on before installing the headlights. Oh and NO the LED's dont blink in real life, just on camera. But this gives a good look at what they look like during daytime (post rain)
Reviews of spare parts for Volkswagen
I bought a set of adjustable koni yellows with vogtland springs for my jetta for $40. No idea how old they are, but throw on the stiff setting and they rock corners pretty well.
I only use Varta batteries and i hade my 4 years and i dont even use it in winters(6Months) and when i charge it it keeps me up the rest of the summer around 6 months there too...=)
Jetta has been relatively trouble free but a few quirks here and there. Sometimes the electronics glitch and then figure themselves out. For some reason my car burns through bulbs like crazy, especially the rear lights. Rear brakes had to be replaced around 30-35k. However, the car is an absolute tank otherwise.
I just finished up putting on the front brakes off a 20th AE GTI, calipers, carriers, and lines with A8 rotors. My calipers were rusted to hell. With Akebono pads all around, turned rear rotors and fresh OE fluid, it stops waaaaaaay better than it did!!!
I had a set of 4 matching Continental tires with about 90% tread left.
I will also use a zero weight synthetic like mobil one.
Update: After several days with my newly flushed heater core, the heat output is amazing. Almost too hot at times! I have never experienced such hot air before on any vehicle I have driven.
I run 10-40 mobil1 in my VR now. had 5-30 and it ran just about the same, didnt notice any difference really.
Look at the size of the ball on the Moog brand (L) next to the VW (R).
