Ive own both Mk6 1.8T Jetta and now have a Mk5 2.5L Jetta and both have required new radiators at 150k miles. they have not been leaking coolant since.
That's probably the kit I'd go with for my GLI. Again, as a daily driver... it meets the needs. The semi-metallic pads work good in many different temp ranges. However, semi-metallic pads also produce more brake dust, so you'll get more debris on your rotors faster. One of the other downsides is that they're more aggressive on the braking rotor because they're metallic, so you'll need to check your rotors more often for thinning.
I ran Mobil 1 20w/50 for 24 years. The guys at NGP use Liqui Moly everything so I switched after reading up on it. I'm REALLY liking Liqui Moly since I switched 3 years ago.
check the charging at the battery while the car is running about 2000 or 2200 rpm with multimeter. The alternator should be charging at 14 volts (give or take a little)
I run this one in our 04 BEW TDI. No issues what so ever!
Koni yellows were awesome in my GLI when I had them
i use liqui moly 5w30, the european formula. it says made in germany, its the best during winter.
I’ve done an oil change as well as swapping the spark plugs and coils for brand new ones. The roughness persists!
Car has been at the stealership for three weeks. Same transmission TC seal leak. Bolts and seals also needed replacing. Car is 45 days old with 4K KM’s.
My Jetta’s got the defender 60k’s on them and it’s a bit noisy and poor in the snow
