2013 Golf R with 31,000 miles on the clock. Complete with navigation and sunroof. I have poured my heart into this car and hate to see it go, but I need to get into something bigger for my family. My car has been meticulously maintained, adult driven and never smoked in. The R is extremely...

FS: 42DD Ultimate Catch Can with AN fittings I have a brand new, unopened ultimate catch can with AN fittings, wrinkle black finish and all black lines and connectors for a MKVI Golf R that I picked up last month. Here is a link to exact product I'm selling...

I can't seem to find it, but thought there was somebody that posted pics of how they finagled to get the Golf R badge (not the VW emblem) attached to the JOM badge-less grill? If anybody could direct me to either that post, or how to do it I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks!

Can anybody tell me the length of the stock front end links for the R?

So I just installed coilovers on my 2013 Golf R. We forgot to code for the headlight range with vagcom that night, however, when I went out to test drive the car, the lights did their routine dance at startup. Yesterday we coded it with vagcom, heard the motors moving after the settings had...

Have a quick question. ECS manual doesn't show it nor do the DIY guides I have found on the forums, but wanted to check and see if on a Golf R, is it necessary to remove the wheel liner? I'm guessing YES due to the need to remove the AFS but don't see anything about it and didn't know what...

So I'm getting ready to install coils on my MKVI R. I have been leveraging ECS' install guide to determine proper tools, procedures to do this since it is my first time. What their install guide does not speak to is the rear AFS sensor. My question is this, does this need to be removed for...

Anybody else get the email about a new carbon lip designed by ECS? What are your thoughts? http://www.ecstuning.com/News/Volkswagen_MKVI_Golf_R_Carbon_Fiber_Lip_Spoiler_ECS_2012_2013/ES2793841/

Can anybody chime in on whether it will be necessary to remove the wheel bearings on a MKVI Golf R when installing the front coilovers? I read through ECS' .pdf and they say yes, but then looking elsewhere it doesn't appear to be necessary. I want to ensure I have all the tools for the job...

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I just don't want to order the wrong set of coilovers for car. Can somebody please confirm what the correct model number is for my 2013 Golf R 2 door US spec car? I have seen several websites that state the correct model number is...

So I went forward and did the blackstone labs oil analysis and got my results back the other day. Everything looked solid and they agreed everything was looking good, but mentioned I had slightly higher iron at 37ppm vs. the universal average of 27ppm. Looking at other Golf R lab results on...

So I'm getting ready to inspect my cam follower on my R. I think I have it figured out but had one question. On the bottom of the high pressure fuel pump there are to lines that feed into pump. One is a barbed fitting with a rubber hose attached and the other is a hard line that gets removed...

So I picked my Golf R used in May of this year. 2013 with 16,000 miles on it. Car seemed pretty decent for power, but not earth shattering by any means. I decided to put a Unitronic intake on it last weekend and all was well. This weekend I was detailing my car and noticed this little gem...

For anybody with a Unitronic intake, does this look like it is just a deal where the logo was stamped too low or does it look like I didn't install it properly? Everything lines up and as best I can tell and I did everything as it should, but the logo is just not sitting right with me. Just...

Ok, I know there are a lot of threads on Coilovers but wanted to see if anybody had a say in the following I'm considering for my Golf R: KW V1 - Hear ride is very comfortable and like the fact that they are stainless BC Racing - Had these on my Subaru STi, liked them, but got all nasty due...

So I picked up a set of wheels with specs: 19x8.5 +47. I was told to run a 225 35 19 tire. I did with a continental DW tire and now they appear a tad stretched. The tire shop that installed suggested I go with a 235 30 19 tire next time. Wondering if anybody has any advice or know if this size...

I couldn't find anything out there so thought I would ask here. On my previous car when I would go to unlock the doors the tail lights would glow for some time. I always liked this because it looked amazing with the LCI lights I had on my M3 and provided nice accent lighting. I'm wondering...

So, my apologies if this has been covered in a sticky, or in some other thread. I have been looking for confirmation before I pull the trigger on wheels/suspension and wanted to see if I am calculating this correctly. The wheel I'm looking at going with has the following size: 19x8 et45 and...

I have been researching coilovers for a several weeks now and what I continue to find are post dated back to 2012 and mostly people running these coilovers are driving GTIs. What I've determined in my research is that this coilover appears to be very ideal, yes expensive, but ideal for a very...
