OEM Volkswagen › Thermostat

Rating 5.0

Overheating:
Cabin heat:

today I replaced the thermostat on my GLI too. What a pain in the ass!!! my back hurts so bad!. Anyways it took me almost 6 hours to complete the job. Now the car feels a lot more powerful, the old thermostat was opening at 80oC so it was overcooled all the time, heater just blew mild hot not hotter as it should and it was burning gas like a v8, It was doing 16-18mpg at most in city driving. I just checked with VCDS and the engine temp is at a solid 93oC constant temp, I took it for a ride for about 10 miles and it did 28mpg so I am pretty confident that the old thermostat just plain sucked. 6 hours well spent!

Pros: car feels more powerful, better mpg

Cons: pain in the ass, back hurts

Braking:

Hmm, I find my Golf TDI brakes to be excellent. Havent tracked them, but have punished them on occasion with liberal use of power on the highway, even combined with going down hill, and have never experienced fade.

Pros: brakes are excellent

Cons: havent tracked them

Vehicle: Volkswagen Golf

OEM Volkswagen › Automatic transmission fluid

LFZ 17 Oct 2011, 17:20

Rating 5.0

I have a 2000 MKIV jetta with a 2.0 and automatic trans. I have never changed the trans fluid in that thing and it has 280,000+ miles...still runs strong. I have seen some guys change their tranny fluid suspecting they needed it and it only caused more problems. When VW says it's lifetime fluid...it's lifetime fluid.

Pros: lasts over 280,000 miles, still runs strong

Vehicle: Volkswagen Jetta

Mileage: 450616 km

OEM Volkswagen › Oil filter

Leaks:

Oil filter/housing and the Crank Position Sensor are pretty common leak points. The CPS leak on my own car was like this phantom leak I just couldn't find until a shop fixed it for me.

Pros: common leak points

Cons: phantom leak

Vehicle: Volkswagen Jetta

OEM Volkswagen › Throttle body

Rating 4.0

Throttle response:

the throttle body is the most common issue when it comes to the EPC light on the FSI and TSI engines, I dont know why but Volkswagen installed these ****ty little wire sensors (6) into the throttle body to measure various things, mostly oil and gasoline vapor.

Pros: great quick fix

Cons: cheap non plated wires

Vehicle: Volkswagen

Mileage: 25000 km

Throttle response:
Idle:

So I have had issues with random throttle valve pressure drop codes and rough running and limp mode. Also the car likes to randomly idle high, 1200rpm high. I also had loud boost hissing noise when boosting, sounds like a boost leak. Test drove car and it is amazing ,the car boosts quick now and I dont have the loud hissing noise when boosting (prob the throttle plate malfunctioning)

Pros: car boosts quick

Cons: loud hissing noise

Vehicle: Volkswagen Passat
