Rear pads I've changed 3 times.
It's got exceptional engine braking.

Replacement rear tyres wearing incredibly well (Kumho) and will likely do another 15,000 miles
I vote for ws-90, those tires are unstoppable in our Ontario winters. Had them on my old mk4, my e60 550i bmw, and will be getting some now for my 7.5 GTI
Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5. I have them on my Mk7.5 and love them. They are T rated, but very quiet. I do mostly highway driving.
I had a bad thermostat and it's only indication was the temp rising when going up hills under sustained load.
on the front: Bosch Icon
Hankooks. Not terrible. At 12k now and the fronts probably needed to be rotated sooner. If I get another 5k out of the set that would be nice.
Hankooks- don’t mind them.
The diesel particulate filter got plugged so went with a tune.
Aftermarkets (especially APR/MST) are reported to fail often, like *very* often.
