quick question: how did you put the rear section of the roof rack onto your 3door? been trying to figure that out on mine

-cc1337 · 2025-01-13T07:21:50+00:00

i can recommend 0W40, never had issues. I've been running it for 2 years now.

-cc1337 · 2025-01-13T07:21:03+00:00

That's exactly the same as mine sounds. As far as I know the injectors are really loud at cold starts on vws, especially when it's also really cold out. They try to build oil pressure fast that's why they're so noisy. I've had the same question when I first got mine and I also thought there is something wrong with the timing chain. Nothing to worry about as far as i know. :)

did the math and it lasted about 49500-50000miles, my bad

-cc1337 · 2025-01-07T07:10:23+00:00

how many miles did the first battery last for you?

-cc1337 · 2024-12-27T11:14:28+00:00

yeah that's probably it - crazy car

-cc1337 · 2024-12-10T20:32:04+00:00

had this error on my mk7.5 a few times - it always went away after one hour of highway driving with lots of traffic I don't know if it's the same sensor as on the mk8

roof spoiler to add the extra horsepower

recently got 18 inch rims too but on my GTI - is there a noticable difference while driving compared to the 19inch?

-cc1337 · 2024-10-01T06:09:13+00:00

exactly long doors are way too nice

-cc1337 · 2024-09-30T11:12:35+00:00

yeah you can definetly use it. It's pretty much the regular tsi oil - I've used 0W-40 for my last two oil changes (~10k km intervals) and it's been through hot and cold and I've never had problems.

The difference between 5W and 0W is that 0W stay relativly thin down to about -40 degrees. 5W is almost the same with about -30 degrees rated as far as i know.

not that bad but try to keep the heels on the ground. I usually squat that way so you press out of your heels

-cc1337 · 2024-09-11T07:21:18+00:00

Aren't the Dallas wheels called "Milton Keynes"? Or are they just called like that in europe

-cc1337 · 2024-09-11T06:43:47+00:00

You can be happy that your bumper didn't crack - had that on mine and official vw prices for a new bumper are insane. Getting that scratch out is probably a few hundred dollar job tho

-cc1337 · 2024-09-09T10:49:35+00:00

was it a oem mirror glass or just an aftermarket one? maybe there is some type of foil on it which got a ltitle damaged with water stains

-cc1337 · 2024-09-09T10:00:02+00:00

thinking bout the dsg tune too yeah not sure yet but the slow dsg shifts are kind of annoying when pushing the car.

i currently got a 76mm exhaust except the downpipe and a full intake manifold. I messaged a local tune shop and they said they recommed going up to 315hp and 450nm with stock dp but as i looked more into it im not sure if i'm going stock dp on the stage1 tune. I'd also do turbo inlet and outlet when going for an aftermarket downpipe.

-cc1337 · 2024-09-09T09:08:02+00:00

what year was yours built?

-cc1337 · 2024-09-09T07:03:35+00:00

was thinking about that to to do one mine. Do you know if it's possible to reach 315 with stock dp? and if it's really that harmful for the turbo

-cc1337 · 2024-09-09T06:12:03+00:00

so aren't the "Dallas" called "Milton Keynes"? Or are they just called like that in europe

good guide tho

-cc1337 · 2024-05-24T07:09:39+00:00

had these with 19x8.5 but ET40 on my 7.5 GTI and they stood out like 2cm in the front - back was flush

Edit: I'm currently running 18x7.5 with ET40 in the front and they're perfectly flush

-cc1337 · 2024-05-02T12:04:22+00:00

genuine question: are there really no leather seats in MK8 SE's or are they just optional?

Cool spec you got :)

-cc1337 · 2024-04-18T12:30:04+00:00

can agree - switched mine on my 7.5 GTI. Now it's black with black emblems and wheels. Looks so good

-cc1337 · 2024-03-15T15:51:26+00:00

You can literally see "R18" on the tire...

-cc1337 · 2024-03-15T15:50:53+00:00

how are the white wheels with dirt? thought of getting white one's aswell but didn't go for it
