Re: How Much Does Wheel and Tyre Affect Ride Comfort
Last Poster: ZoliWorks in Mk5 General Area on April 10, 2026, 09:41:42 am
Depends a lot on your shocks actually. On my backup Jetta I have KYB shocks, stock springs and 16"quot wheels and lemme tell you, my 18"quot wheels on Bilstein B4'#039s and Eibach black springs are sometimes more comfortable. So while the tire size plays a huge part, dont neglect your shocks. IIRC think you have Sachs which should be much softer than the KYB so you'#039ll probably be fine. Won

Re: Mk5 Golf GTI timing issues.
Last Poster: bigkris06 in Mk5 General Area on April 08, 2026, 10:24:06 am
Hi. Thank you for your reply.
We have already replaced both the timing chain, camshaft adjuster and tensioner. These were Febi so I know they are decent quality.
That’s a great video, that’s what I used to ensure the chain timing was perfect.

Hi all, looking for some advice with my Mk5 GTI (EA113, ~111k miles, mostly good history). Recently had a new timing chain kit at 110,100 miles (previous owner but gave me invoice). Then a new INA VVT solenoid and a repaired camshaft position sensor plug done by a VAG specialist (Volkstech, maltby) after a P0011 fault literally 40 miles ago. The car starts and pulls really well, bu

Good price for new  :happy2:

I had bought a low mile Sirocco R 2010 rad pack for £120 a few years back, as I wanted the revised larger intercooler........in the process it gave me a spare genuine fan pack and radiator  :grin: win win

    Edition 30 Rear Valance -Pearl Black (Genuine Part)
    £80.00
    Location: Manchester
    Collection Only

    For Sale is my old Pearl Black Edition 30 rear valance. This clips into the upper section of your rear bumper.
    This was removed from my golf due someone backing into me at low speed causing surface cracks. (they offered to pay for a new valance)

    The surface cracks are around the the number plate area which I've tried to photo the best i can.

    The exhaust surround has been bonded back on by the body shop after an encounter with a high kerb a few years ago.

    There are storage scratches on the paintwork so will need respraying. You will also need a towing eye cover.

    All clips to clip the valance upper bumper section are intact and there is no sign of warping.

    This is a genuine valance and was fitted to my ED30 from the factory.
