OEM Volkswagen › Thermostat

CuRide 28 Jul 2005, 17:18

Rating 4.5

Overheating:

I replaced mine with a low temp thermostat and low temp fan sensor aswell as the infamous blue coolant temp sensor a week ago and everything ran so much cooler and smoother now. My coolant temp sensor failed for weeks and wouldn't run the low speed fan and the water temp was 30-40 degree hotter than usual. Now it's all good with AC blasting in bumper to bumper traffic for 1 hour and it water temp reads 205-215, but my oil are in the 240's.

Pros: cooler, smoother running

OEM Audi › Brake pads

Braking:

Hi Black betty... here's the bottom line,.... if the S3 brakes can be purchased and fitted to your car within your budget, then buy the brakes. I've got S3 brakes on my Mk4 Gti, and beyond a dogbone mount, they're the best value mod possible. For performance road applications, the brakes are superb and miles beyond stock Gti brakes.

Pros: superb, best value mod

Sachs › Clutch kit

MJM Autohaus 18 Apr 2005, 08:56

Rating 5.0

Slip:
Engagement smoothness:

The SACHS VR6 228mm clutch kits (one of our more popular sellers) are very stout and can take quite a beating, yet still retain a very factory OE feel. After all, they are the VR6 OE clutches! Even though these are the SACHS OE clutch kits, a lot of VR6 all-motor drag racers run this clutch kit. Rated at near 290 ft/lbs of torque, this clutch kit is one of best VR6 clutches available for stock, mildly modified, and non-force inducted MK3s.

Pros: stout, factory OE feel

MOTUL › Gear oil

Noise:

Why I am writing a review about this gear oil, because since I owned this car shifting into second gear on cold morning has been a little bit hard. And last week when I went to my mechanic for an oil change as usual he used full synt Motul oil 5w40 and he suggest me to use motylgear 75w90 gear oil. REVIEW... Before: when it's below 10C outside or on the morning for the first 5 or 10 minutes it's hard to shift in second gear. Most of the time I try to rev match or shift in third skipping second gear. Even after 10 minutes sometime I get a nice grind in second gear. Now: Yesterday it was about 2C in the morning and the improvement is about 60% better and only after 2 minutes it was shifting like butter. Everything seems to be a lot more smoother and safer. I don't feel like I am going to break something when I shift in second gear, to be honest I am very surprised and happy.

Pros: shifting like butter, more smoother

Cons: hard to shift, nice grind

I just replaced my plugs in an 89 16v yesterday. I ended up getting the Bosch platinum +2. I was leery of the platinums as everybody seems to knock them, but my car runs fine. They were 4 bucks each.

Pros: car runs fine

Grip:

Fulda\u00b4s are the best tires you can get here for ultra low cost , but most vW people in Germany dislike Fulda\u00b4s .... they prefer spending 100\u00b4s of euros for Dunlop\u00b4s which i don\u00b4t like. I always buy Fulda\u00b4s or Continental\u00b4s...

Pros: ultra low cost

Cons: most dislike
