Ran 400 wheel horsepower on the OEM chain in my 16. Just did routine oil changes and shoved a fuckload of air into the motor but the chain took it with no issues. Until, of course, the motor exploded at 95k lol
just as i hoped my front rotors were warped. new oe ones solved my problem now no shaking from the front.
Had my '18 R since May '18 and still on original battery, 25 mile commute to work each way about 1/2 hwy . At 57,000 miles.
OEM battery in my 2016 Jetta with 215k miles is still going strong.
Both of those price sound steep - my local shop in Ontario charges half that, currently about 1100cad plus taxes but can't remember the warranty. Car still runs fine 2 years later though
Just keep the right viscosity oil in it and monitor the oil temp. You might be able to read oil temp from you ECU through the obd port. 120-130C is very ok with good synthetic oil.
I blew up a VW polo with the wrong oil and high oil temps.
Wife has a 2015 jetta with the 1.8t and burns 1L every 500 -700 miles. My 2016 a3 burns relatively nothing but maybe half a liter every oil change interval and has same engine.
I had a coolant leak in august. They replaced my water pump under warranty. Brought my car in last week and guess what another freaking leak. They tried to charge me this time but are now fixing it under parts warranty.
Mine is a 2019 (abiet a GTI) and it's on its 3rd water pump
Just got back from the dealer who did an inspection and acknowledged the problem and that it was widespread. However, \"all they can do it tell you whether they're safe or not\". Of course, they're safe but they are also embarassing and, to my wife, anxiety producing thinking that the brakes are about to fail. It's an indictment on the factory that they would allow so many reported issues to go unaddressed, and that they would use ****ty brake pads.
