The mk4 aluminum oil pan has a better oil distribution baffling blah stuff. the steel ones dont. However, comma, if you are low and scrape a lot then I wouldnt recommend the aluminum ones. Steel is a lot sturdier. Just get whatevers available imo.

Here in Canada, the price for a standard Phaeton windshield (one that is tinted, but does not have the metallic infra-red resistant film in it) is about $600, which is pretty typical for a full size car or truck windshield.
I used the oil that is VW507.00 spec and can be bought at the VW dealer (approx retail cost is $7.00 per liter) Oil change capacity is approximately 13 liters. Oil filter part number is shown. I ordered the oil filter cap removal tool from http://www.samstagsales.com for $67.00 plus shipping.
I have the standard head lights. I think they are great. The way I look at it one less then to go wrong. Plus I saved $1600.00.
The AFS system is amazing, BUT I find that even the base standard headlights is sufficiently bright at night. Even on the dark texas roads. I've driven a number of japanese and domestic vehicles in the past couple of years, and nothing with standard headlights comes close to the passats standard headlights in terms of brightness and amount of coverage it shines on the road.
Just finished my 5K service. My dealer had never stocked the VW 507 oil! Special order for me. Anyway, your 2007 has the BWF engine where the fuel filter sits beside the motor on the driver side. in the middle of the four hoses is a torx head screw. Remove this and pump out (or syringe out as I did) about 100cc. Mine was perfectly clean.
Scirocco Fuel Tank Recall information there was a recall made on some roccos due to them rusting out along a seam. if it hasnt been done yet, then Presto, you get a free, dealer installed gas tank, along with all of the extra stuff needed to complete the operation.
I'm on my second fuel injector at 92,000 miles....i have a chip GIAC.....don't know if my stock injectors are getting worked O.T. but it is what it is i still enjoy my VW DUB.
I put a set of GLI calipers & rotors on when someone else upgraded. Really didn't notice a big difference, both in weight or stopping power.
I have had bad experiences with non-OEM parts on my VWs and INSIST on OEM parts even for things like mufflers. They never fit exactly right and the quality is never as good as OEM.
