The kolbenschmidts are coated side skirts as well which is great for cyl bore wear. Few mk4 blocks I grabbed had perfect cyl bores even at high mileage.
get a set of mahle 4032 alloy pistons unless you're going for very high power levels. you'll barely hear bad things from 2618 alloy piston owners, but 2618's have been known to piston-slap on cold starts, depending on the tolerances of the build.
mio fratello ha una Golf VII 1,4 TSI acquistata nel 2013.
Avevo scritto anche qua un paio di anni fa perché cominciava a bere molto olio, ad ora è arrivato a consumare 1kg ogni 500km.
