Reviews of Bosch parts For Business

Had a noise when idling my 2005 passat 2.0 diesel auto. When I turned the wheel at idle the belt would chirp and jump( at the pwr steering pump). Found out I had a defective Schrage(sp?) pulley/clutch on my Bosch 120 amp alternator.
it came today threw it in and tested it out everything runs fine, a lot better than before! it works!
The set of Bosch Icons I have on my car now have lasted my about 2 1/2 years now.
The Bosch ones from Advanced Autozone O'Boys always worked great on my GTI. $20 each on sale.
I put Bosch wipers from Advanced Auto on my R32 and 1988 Audi Quattro for under $50, and they installed quick/easy.
I have bosch on mine and it works A-OK for me
i had the same exact problem. tested the battery and alternator, both tested good. came across a fanactic VW mechanic. told him my problem, he test drove it for a couple of minutes. then he told me it was my alternator. my alternator is going bad. so i took his advise, bought a new bosch, and now, new more red light. plus the new alternator seemed to give me more power, thats from what i feel. probably just my imagination.
okay just did mine 14.7x after a cold start...can it be too much ? does that sound reasonble
One lesson I learned when buying oil filters for the VR6 is to NOT buy a Bosch filter. Why? They are about $10 more, and when you pull it out of that pretty little Bosch box and look at the filter, it's a Hengst.
