I replaced the limp stock shocks on my 2002 Weekender recently. I used Bilstein B46-1911/12 (the "HD" ones). The ride manages to be both smoother and more controlled.
Reviews of spare parts for Volkswagen
so far i have determed that u can fit a mk3 vr6 gti heater core/box into a mk1 failry easy and not looose much if any foot/leg room on the passinger side of a caddy cabbin.
I had crossdrilled Zimmermans on my Golf...didn't notice any noise from them..but did notice faster pad wear ....
My old GLX didn't like anything but NGK coppers.
Last week Replaced Steering Column. VW picked up parts cost as "goodwill" effort. My cost $493.50.
I had this happen over a year ago-under warranty luckily. Took 2 weeks and a VW engineer to fix. They replaced the steering column and shipped my old one back to Germany. The car would start and then immediately shut off and give me the steering lock malfunction error.
I run mobil 1 synthetic 0w40 all year round, with no problems. Best of both worlds
same as most any other top quality synthetic, but a little better i blew 3qts out of my rabbit on its maiden voyage an drove for a few min with probably almost no oil pressure. no damaged bearings, no damaged lifters, engine still runs like a champ an that was almost two years an several thousand miles ago.
I've had Bilstein Sports in the front and Bilstein HD in the back on my B4 PASSAT WAGON. Th eride was way too firm.
Very hard tire, no traction and questionable quality. Lasted about 10K on my son's Jetta w/18's...
