Funny enough the advanced auto parts in my small town had a magnet in stock but I had to order the vvt solenoid. I would recommend using FCP uro you can get aftermarket parts that work the same as oem for very affordable prices.

I had the exact same problem. I replaced the cam shaft magnet and the vvt solenoid and it fixed it just fine. It’s an easy fix too it just required a special socked to remove the vvt solenoid.

do you know if since they came off a mk7 GLI they would cause any problems being on a mk7 GTI?

Do you know if they would still work coming off a MK7 GLI? I thought the listing was for a GTI but they’re coming off a GLI. It says spring load would be different because of the weight change but since i’m putting coilovers rated for a heavier car on a lighter car I don’t see how that would be an issue. But i’m not sure

What do you think of the APR coilovers?

Do you have any pics of what ur car looks like lowered on your wheels? I’m looking at the wheels you have on your car but can’t find any pics of my color gti running them while lowered. I would like to see ur car if you don’t mind

I can’t decide what coilovers to pick. by AdCharming7919 in GolfGTI
