For gas cars, Yes thats usually what people go with. Also, for TDIs, I know Mk4s handle them well. I know a couple people who never had issues with them. It seems to be just the mk5/mk6 transmissions that have an issue with them.

DO NOT go with SMF on these cars. You will shatter the synchro's. Just take a quick search on here with people who have done SMF and how long its lasted. With regards to your noise, without a video, sounds like the release bearing. Mine has been doing the same thing for months.

$1.82 at some local name brand stations. But i heard that cherry flavoured diesel is down a few cents.

Im curious to monitor it with cars that have a full EGR delete since there is no warm air going back into the engine to heat it up quicker. I know cars that have a full EGR delete tend to take a bit longer to warm up and the coolant temp needle drops when coasting but goes back up when on some...

See if your wastegate holds vacuum.

They basically created a cheat to the system to give us the best MPG they could. Yet, people still got mad. lol

Wondering the same thing but Ive noticed it on cars that have DPF/EGR parts gone. Since there is no EGR, I know the temps drop alot easier but usually only when im stopped/idle. How could you tell the thermostat is bad in other ways?

Ive driven cars with nothing but a stock muffler. Theres no smell or noise in the cabin at all. Just some smell outside the car and some more noise. From what ive noticed atleast.

I know people get the cats to reduce the smell which helps. On cars without a cat and just straight to stock muffler, I noticed there is a smell if youre standing behind it. Not in the car.

Its more so the vibration/chatter with a single mass that kills them.

Single mass is a synchro killer. Just do a quick search for anything 2009 and up and people who have ran a single mass. Whats your output for tq? SACHs has a performance clutch kit good up to 400tq.

Even with a stock muffler in place, its loud enough to where you can hear it but not crazy loud.

Are you able to grab any pictures of the car from where you say its welded or something weird going on? Has it been professionally done or does it look kind of hacked up?

Is it under the extended warranty or no?

That is indeed your flywheel.

Dealers use 0W-30 for diesels now. As said, this topic has been brought up before and VW tends to switch up oils for some reason.

Yeah I wouldnt trust stickers. Id want to check through all the receipts and make note of all the things done and at what mileage/time. So you can keep better track going forward. I tend to use a notebook and write everything out that was done so its easier to check back if need be and see what...

LOL. Yes it was. Treg is about $190ish to fill up if its not on empty atleast.

214,100km (133035mi). Just a youngin still. 2013 GSW, just bought it last year with 148,000km on it.

Im surprised this is actually discussed on the forum so openly.
