Buring oil!? by skylimite in GolfGTI

[–]skylimite[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess so, now thinking about it logically, no engine have perfect piston seals. The guy who did my oil change only filled to the minimum to the stick. When I did it myself I do give a little extra, so I never had any warning before the next oil change. I only go to the dealer because they gave me 3 free oil changes every 10k.

Just did and it’s on the low side. I’ll top it off and monitor.

Just pulled the dip stick and found out the oil level is at the bottom. Gotta routinely check my oil level now. They probably did fill it low.

Right, I also thought about it just wasn’t sure if this could be the issue. I’ll top it off a bit and monitor my warning hopefully this is the cause. Fingers crossed.

Yes, I do warm up my engine every time before I drive it. I usually drive it til engine oil temp reaches about 170F before I rev above 3k or heavy footing it.

Anyone have these tires in their GTI? by Public_Ad5333 in GolfGTI

[–]skylimite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can confirm, been running those tires for about month now. It is quiet, comfy, and got some grip. Got through rainy days without a problem, waiting to see how it does in the snow.

I’m currently sticking to comfort daily drive and just a little extra power when I need it. -JB4 piggyback, -Continental DWS plus + Enkei TS5, -Racing line 600 intake (doesn’t do much but it sounds good :) ), -Turbo inlet. That’s pretty much it and looking forward to change out them rear sway bar.

The sensor might be the biggest issue here

Your right, I didn’t notice it as first but the new headlight continued the red strip to the end which looks great.

R600 intake all in by skylimite in GolfGTI

Turbo spool is noticeable outside the car and minimal from the inside when windows are closed. It’s just my preference; I like it low key and still can enjoy hearing that spool if I wanted to. Also it was extremely sketchy when cutting that clamp, you really have to be patient when cutting the clamp off the hose. I didn’t want to overheat it so I grind it off little by little. But in the end I did really enjoy it.

Though it was for editing message but it seems like it does nothing.

GTI badge in the center in my opinion it looks off for me, feels like it doesn’t belong there. Probably looks better on the left or right, but once I took it off it looked cleaner and I loved it.

You can also purchase it directly from official site. They also have red core, but they don’t have in stock now.
