these older calipers are notorious for binding up on the ebrake actuator go get a newer pair at the junkyard new design is better.

I ended up using it to change the oil, change the plugs, and change the oil filters and ignition coil. I recommend it.
I had U350100 as a soft fault in my Tiguan's system for a while about a year ago. I had it throw a hard fault and CEL for the same code twice. I found this to be caused by a fatiguing main battery. Not able to hold a high enough charge constantly to keep all the systems happy. I replaced and coded the replacement battery (000-915-105-CC-DSP) from VW. Made sure to change it's coding to know it was an AGM battery I installed in the Tiguan. Fault has not returned since.
I have a 2013 GTI on the original water pump at 100k miles.
Mine just dripped a bit when the weather hit 112. Scared me at first but I remember seeing this stuff in the frame.
19 here and no issues, but all mk7s (gti/gli/R/s3/2.0a3s etc) are known for water pump and thermostat issues.
VW Fender rust starts with that dumb foam liner support on the front fenders, and spreads. Had it in my Mk5, and later I removed it from my 2019.
On the other end of the spectrum, the eGolf sucks. It wasn’t good when new and I can’t imagine spending that kind of money to repair it.
Before you know it your timing chain stretches and the intake camshaft needs to be replaced. Damn POS. Because that’s what happened to mine.
Someday, VAG will figure out how to make a water pump. *That day is not today.*
