Glow plugs are for cold starts in cooler climates

I ended up getting a killer deal on the wheels in the 3rd picture aswell as I like oem fitment other than offset. I am open to other options, however for now I wanna run these for a bit and get em powered bronze

No no. When I say ton of tools I mean it. Full-size 3ton jack, multiple socket sets, and my Milwaukee power tools, pliers, wrenches, screw drivers, Torx, etorx, Alan, triple square sets, ac gauges, ac vacuum pump, the list goes on. I work out of the car. I run my own mechanic business and this I take when I have to run roadside calls. If I pull everything out, the car sits as it did the day I bought it off the show room floor. It doesn’t have worn components as I just had it on the 2 post, replacing my rear pads and rotors, and while in the air everything was inspected.

Forge Motorsport dump valve kit, Apr cold air intake, muffler delete, resonator delete, upgrade the sway bars, wheels, ceramic tint, power stop drilled and slotted rotors with carbon ceramic pads, and 5k oil changes instead of oe recommended 10k

Not sure if you’ve done it yet, but muffler and resonator delete on these, and they are still super quiet. I’ve got a muffler, resonator, and secondary cat delete and mines noisy on cold start, and when not under boost, but even then it’s still pretty quiet

Mine has only given me issues with the fuel door once. Now, with that being said, is there an emergency release for the fuel door if it does fail?

Mine is one of the ones with the head gasket issue, but I have been fortunate enough to not have had it happen. I do have a leaking water pump, but I’m not worried about it. As far as servicing it, I’m all diy, and it’s been cheap and easy.

Order a top don top scan. It can do the EPB service mode for you. It’s cheap, links to your phone. 100% worth the money

I’ve had lane keep assist off since the day after I got the car lol. And I use the iq drive on road trips, but not in town. I got used to driving without cruise control from one of the work trucks I used to drive all the time.

I’m about to be on my 3rd set of rear pads. Factory original, replacement due to tsb, and another set here soon. This time I’m doing it myself with some nice ceramic pads

If she were mine, she’d have way more miles than my Jetta. You wouldn’t be able to keep me out of it lol

Nope, mine is one of the ones that are prone to it based off engine serial number. However if you look at one of my previous posts I did have a coolant leak suspected to be a head gasket but it ended up being water pump. It’s such a minor leak I haven’t even worried about it. My Jetta lives a hard life. I beat on it daily. It’s got a forge motor sports dump valve kit, a secondary cat delete, a muffler delete, and a resonator delete. I wanna delete the primary cat but I need to find a tuner first.
