I'll go with 2 liters just to be safe. Thanks for the thorough information! Thank you!

Thanks guys! I guess my main question was, is the factory fluid LV? I'm assuming if I go to the dealer they're going to use the product I posted above?

About to do brakes on my GTI and I keep reading that VW recommends DOT 4 LV fluid. I'm looking at online sites and see the OEM VW fluid (Part Number B0007501LDSP) and it doesn't state LV like other products. It's factory VW/Audi so I'm assuming it's the safe bet to use in our cars, and probably...

Same. I don't want snow, but now that I've got dedicated winter and summer wheels, I kind of want to see how good these tires actually are. My stock Pirelli's were garbage, and only had about 20k on them. Last year the car literally slid sideways down my driveway with just a very light layer...

Haven't seen it asked, but on the stock 18" wheels, what size tires can you put on safely? I was looking for General Altimax Winters but they don't come in the factory size for the GTI.

Dude, I'm blown away by this car. I expected mid 20s since it's a turbo 4, but my lifetime average (since brand new) is a bit over 33mpg. I do a lot of highway but just yesterday I did about 220 miles and averaged 40mpg (all highway). Even getting on it I'll still average high 20s/low 30s...

New wheels and (summer) tires installed!

Sounds like that's the issue. I feel like I'm being patient, I'm just disappointed in how the product is advertised. If it's not in stock and ready to ship same business day, they shouldn't be putting that on the website. The lack of information is what annoyed me. Unless I reached out, I'd have...

My CC was charged and I confirmed with them via email about 5 days after my order. They responded quickly and said they received my order, it's being processed and it should update with tracking info soon. That original statement was 2 weeks ago. I followed up again to see what was going on and...

Thanks guys. New to the VW community and first purchase from them. Just wanted to make sure they're legit. I'll stay patient and hope they get here sooner rather than later. Going on about 3 weeks now. Really excited since they're gonna be my summer setup. New tires are already sitting in the...

Just curious if anyone has had issues lately. I bought a set of wheels mid March and I still have no tracking/shipping info. I've emailed with support a couple of times and have been given a new ETA of 4/8. When I log onto the site and go to my account it shows no purchase history on file. The...

Thank you! Tire size was my next question. I'm looking at Michelin Pilot Sport 4s in 235/40/18s. Sounds like that size will work without rubbing!

Hi all, I'm running a 2018 stock GTI at the moment and want to purchase a set of Neuspeed RSE10s, but I was hoping to fill the wheel wells a bit so I can get a more 'flush' look. I've been reading a bunch of threads but I'm still confused on what size I actually want. I'm not planning on...

Couple questions. First, if you push the start button and then leave the vehicle with the key fob on you, will the car eventually realize that the key isn't there, and go dark, or will the ignition stay on and drain the battery? I ask because I parked my car while away for a couple days at the...
