Reviews of spare parts for Volkswagen Caddy
GTI rebuilt front caliper conversion with drilled Brembo rotors and pad
We recently made this to our caddy Mk1, all home made with help from friends with some skills, total cost, honeslty I dont have any idea haha: Engine is from a 2008 R32 Drivetrain from a 2004 R32 (6-speed manual, also have The DGS setup) Haldex is manually operated so is not and will not workas on the R32, you can drive front wheel drive or 4wheel drive (pushing a button). ECU and engine harness is from an R32 so it works as it should. Front suspension, hubs, etc were upgraded to acommodate Mk3/Scirocco 16v Discs (my dad did some crazy stuff in there but it brakes awesome)
I reset the timing to 1.0mm left every else as is, and accually got the cold start lever hooked up properly with a spair part from another pump i had laying around
filter is the nipple mk2 type that mounts to the fire wall next to the turbo.
i have a set of those on my caddy that were installed when my dad and i rebuilt my truck in 2002 and they work just fine.
When I first got my caddy I lifted it with cabriolet springs and bilstein hd shocks... With 17" wheels I had over 12" of clearance
I've had similar spark plugs fouling up issue with the G60 turbo swap in my caddy. After checking all the stuff you mentioned, I upgraded to an MSD Blaster 2 coil and NGK plugs with a wider gap (0.030). So far so good, running on all four cylinders now.
New Contitech T-Belt and tensioner
Next job to tackle is the weak brakes. Going to start with a brake master cylinder replacement because when I'm sitting at a red light, the pedal goes from hard for about 20-30 seconds to softening up and going to the floor with no clamp force anymore until I pump the pedal again.
