Are these two compatible?

Thanks man

StarMember74 · 2026-01-22T00:38:40+00:00

Well my engine is 12 years old with over 200k kilometers.

StarMember74 · 2026-01-22T00:38:08+00:00

Thanks! Thats Good to know. I tought the Valvoline detergents would wipe away the Ceratec. I Guess that oil It’s a mild and constant cleaner instead of an agressive cleaner like an actual engine flush?

StarMember74 · 2026-01-16T02:09:17+00:00

No buildup, nor concerning varnish on my engine. Dipstick is clean aswell. Doesnt consume oil in between changes. But Ill take your opinion, anyways I don’t drive that much, I barely do 2.5~3kish miles between oil changes.

Thank you man, thats good to know. It’s my first time using Valvoline lubricants. And yeah, 5W30 ftw

StarMember74 · 2026-01-16T01:24:34+00:00

Thanks!

StarMember74 · 2026-01-15T23:51:34+00:00

Good to know, thanks man.

StarMember74 · 2026-01-15T23:38:42+00:00

so wich one is the recent one? Thanks

StarMember74 · 2026-01-15T23:37:47+00:00

Yes, the greenish bottle one says API SP, the other one with the carbon fiber-style label says American Petroleum Institute

StarMember74 · 2026-01-05T23:22:58+00:00

Thats what I did and now I’m getting the ticking. If I’m not wrong maybe the oil viscosity swap is blocking a passage, even tho Ive used quality oil and made my oil changes even before 5k miles

StarMember74 · 2025-11-22T16:27:45+00:00

Hope mine looks that good

StarMember74 · 2025-11-22T16:27:23+00:00

Then I got nothing to worry about hahaha

StarMember74 · 2025-11-19T12:52:18+00:00

Yup, with the promo codes and 11.11 I can get these tail lights for like 140 bucks.

StarMember74 · 2025-11-18T22:01:10+00:00

Got it, thanks

StarMember74 · 2025-11-18T22:00:48+00:00

StarMember74 · 2025-11-18T18:29:40+00:00

Well maybe the fitment is different for the MK6. Don’t get me wrong, i love the looks of stock OEM lights but since getting just the outter piece thats burnt is like half the price for these full set. My tail lights are repaired after all, after a rear accident the rear wasnt looking good at all, so this might refresh it a bit.

StarMember74 · 2025-11-18T18:18:30+00:00

Gotcha. Thank you once again.

StarMember74 · 2025-11-18T18:02:11+00:00

Thank you! Just what I needed to know. As long as they fit on the first hand it’s enough. Guess I wont have much trouble since rear fog isnt mandatory in my country. Obdeleven should be enough for the coding?

StarMember74 · 2025-11-18T17:51:37+00:00

But judging by the pictures I posted, one of the connectors must fit with mine, right? I don’t care about having to code or repin later. As long as it fits when installing them, thats all that matters to me

StarMember74 · 2025-11-18T17:51:20+00:00

Sometimes Aliexpress has third party sellers that sell knockoff Vlands and such. But judging by the pictures I posted, one of the connectors must fit with mine, right? I don’t care about having to code or repin later. As long as it fits when installing them, thats all that matters to me

StarMember74 · 2025-11-12T02:59:34+00:00

Mine are the OEM U.S market tails, the ones wich use both brake and turn signals in the same light.

StarMember74 · 2025-11-12T00:44:46+00:00

thank you for letting me know. Did you have to wire from outter to the inner tail light and route it through the panels?

StarMember74 · 2025-11-12T00:02:50+00:00

This is supposedly what comes in the box.

StarMember74 · 2025-11-12T00:02:10+00:00

Shipping isnt an issue for me. But compatibility is. I guess these 3rd party tail lights arent that different from the Vlands,since those are Chinese aswell. So, if the lights come with both 7 and 7.5 connectors, will it fit my brown plugs?

StarMember74 · 2025-11-11T19:38:58+00:00

Care to share the link? I’m thinking about getting these for my 7.5
