YOKOHAMA › Tires

Grip:
Ride comfort:

Only after 3 months replaced with Yokohama Advan Sport A/S.

Current review on them is:

Dry pavement: A+ (I can take turns like a race driver on bare pavement and still feel safe)

Wet Pavement: B (Only problem I’ve had starting aggressively is on wet pavement with road markings on them, seems good on corners and doesn’t hydroplane on really wet pavement, but loses traction with hard braking on very wet pavement)

Roughish Roads: A- (my car has low clearance and low profile tires but got by easily on FS roads with medium rocks and being careful. It gets the minus because after driving 75 miles on semi rough FS roads and getting back to pavement, I pulled to the side of the highway and had a metal chunk lodge into the sidewall ruining the tire)

Pros: safe on dry pavement

Cons: metal chunk in sidewall

Vehicle: Volkswagen Passat

B5/5.5 alternators come from two vendors, Bosch and Valeo. I've heard they're not interchangeable because of different pulleys.

Cons: not interchangeable

Shell › Fuel injector

Rating 1.0

Idle:
Acceleration:

I took out the injectors and got a good look at them and they were gummed up, carbon caked and in horrendous shape, their spray patterns were like a straight stream. It was obvious at this point that they were the culprit.

Pros: beautiful spray patterns

Cons: gummed up, carbon caked

Vehicle: Volkswagen Passat
