60k on my mk7r, hasn't needed anything but maintenance. Water pumps were a known issue on early mk7 but from my understanding have been resolved in new part revisions with upgraded metal internals.
An upgraded intercooler solves this for the most part.
I had my valve cover replaced due to it dying while on low rpm and idling. The valve cover has the pcv, n80, and other important components integrated within. So it can be a problem for many reasons. This solved all my issues that the dealer could not figure out.
So update on this. I got the compressor back on and I still had the squeal. It ended up being the alternator pulley was seized. Try spinning the alternator fans by hand and if you can’t your pulley is seized. Parts cost me 30 bucks and was an easy replace. Bow she’s running great.
He helped me rebuild the car using new and authentic German parts—the brakes, the shock absorbers, wiring harness, etc.
These new vws come with cheap plastic oil pans that brake like an egg shell, thats why i always replaced mine with metal ones right away
Honestly it just sounds like a bad coil on 1.
I am doing the same thing right now to replace my throttle body (apparently the electronics or mechanism are toast). I have removed the throttle body a few times and it is one of my least favorites.
After 2 water pumps... I sold my MK6. Thankfully it was all under warranty but having to leave my car at the dealer every other month cost me just as much in time.
my 2019 Golf R had to have it replaced at 21k miles.
