I ran this exact oil in my late B5.5 1.8T, and it worked great, until some lady blew a stop sign, t-boning me and totaling my car. But it wasn't the fault of the oil, lol.
VW Beetles used exhaust manifold heat to warm the cabin.
I already have installed front 345mm rotors and calipers/carriers/shields/lines) from a 2008 R32/Passat V6 4-MO. So that works.
Had one that came with my 84 VW Jetta. Easiest jack to use to change a tire. Can be dangerous if not used correctly though. But that's the same with all jacks.
Cheapest non-VW timing chain kit I can find is around $300, OEM parts are around $600.
Faulty ignition switch....my VW dealership doesn't have it in stock and is on backorder. Thank you to everyone that posted or responded to this thread as it was a huge help.
From what I heard they changed the pads on the 2020 because people complained the 2019 pads were noisy.
My wife's has had electronic gremlins since we got it in '21 (it's a MY22).
-Passenger seat heating mat and occupancy sensor was causing codes and had to be replaced (1 week in shop).
-In-tank fuel pump has been replaced twice on recall.
-Some other recall thing that caused it to randomly go into limp mode (1 week in shop).
My 2012 GTI has 175,000 Kms and is on Water pump #4.
Water pump has been replaced 5 times. Twice under warranty. Had I been smart I would’ve gone with an aftermarket metal pump.
