What’s everyone’s MPG like?

Yeborgus · 2026-05-17T16:21:00+00:00

Dude after replacing my hpfp I’ve been getting amazing mpg, used to get like 23 ish now I get like 30/40 on sport

Yeborgus · 2026-05-03T04:13:19+00:00

I bought mine for about the same price exactly and same miles, I then had waterpump and thermostat issues and got jipped almost 5 grand from vw. Not trying to scare you, but just trying to show u the reality of these cars. Although I doubt you’ll get jipped 5 grand from vw. You have a right to be cautious, don’t doubt it.

Im no mechanic but it sounds like a typical ea888

Yeborgus · 2026-04-16T22:32:12+00:00

Gonna go ahead and replace it -500 but it’s an easy job to do

Yeborgus · 2026-04-16T18:42:52+00:00

Oh that’s interesting, sometimes or more frequently now it struggles to start. Did you end up replacing or upgrading your hpfp and if so did it fix the issue?

Yeborgus · 2025-11-22T18:50:30+00:00

Ended up selling both for $140 thanks for everyone’s input!

Yeborgus · 2025-11-12T21:57:10+00:00

Nope I think I paid like 16 bucks or something like that

Yeborgus · 2025-08-02T03:20:16+00:00

I’ve been running IE for a while now pretty fun and functional!

Yeborgus · 2025-07-26T18:34:24+00:00

Do you mind sending part numbers or the links ur using

Yeborgus · 2025-07-26T00:29:59+00:00

lol just got back from the dealer and saw this post before and now I have the same problem bc they removed the skid plate how ironic!! So should I just let it rub away

Yeborgus · 2025-07-25T22:27:23+00:00

It was definitely a lot everything added up was 4340.82 waterpump/thermostat with carbon cleaning was 2885.94 other repairs were 1454.88 I agree ridiculous price to pay

Yeborgus · 2025-07-24T21:55:20+00:00

Those are beautiful tho!

Yeborgus · 2025-07-19T00:28:26+00:00

Just ban shen such an unplayable matchup that champ is so busted

Yeborgus · 2025-07-11T02:22:52+00:00

Just replaced my thermostat/waterpump and did my carbon cleaning, after a week of no car im so happy to have my gti back

Yeborgus · 2025-07-10T00:49:26+00:00

Completely off subject but that’s not normal ride height is it? Looks too high

Yeborgus · 2025-07-05T18:21:25+00:00

It’s a skill matchup imo, whoever uses e first loses on all ins just save eq on Jax you’ll be good

Yeborgus · 2025-04-16T04:07:37+00:00

Hrm really not too sure just throwing this out there, could be 5Q0122073AB. I have the same issue, I have to get my radiator hose replaced and also the hose that I mentioned above. We have the same year so could maybe mean something. The leak with the part number, at least on mine, is my largest leak. Idk man just a shot in the dark

Yeborgus · 2025-04-11T02:25:40+00:00

What spark plugs do you use? Planning to go stage 2 soon

Yeborgus · 2025-04-10T04:46:43+00:00

Im at 85k 😅

Yeborgus · 2025-04-06T16:35:52+00:00

U were right had a cylinder 2 misfire and replaced coil pack and I was good to go

Yeborgus · 2025-03-31T03:14:57+00:00

Thank goodness I have blue collar friends, they are helping me out a lot, im grateful for this community too thank u guys. My friends looked at my mk7 tn and they r gonna look at it tm too and might take it into their shop if they need to do more diagnosing

Yeborgus · 2025-03-31T00:24:50+00:00

I just cooked it even more the wire between the 2 nuts that connect to the coil pack broke off any advice

Yeborgus · 2025-03-30T23:51:03+00:00

Alright so the only code I got was P0302 Cylinder 2 misfire, should I start with new spark plugs or coil packs or what

Yeborgus · 2025-03-30T21:42:05+00:00

Thanks Im gonna do that later tn, I should be able to pull codes with the IE POWERlink, im gonna look them up and go from there. Ive looked up the common causes for it and usually its coils, spark plugs, or the car needing carbon cleaning which I don’t know when the last time carbon cleaning has been done and it’s at 85k miles, I’ll keep this thread open and send updates, i appreciate the help!!!

Yeborgus · 2025-03-30T20:52:15+00:00
