    can too much highway driving be bad for your car?

    Hey guys, Quick question. Is too much highway driving bad for your car? I know city driving (bumper to bumper) is the worst, but can the same be said about constant highway driving? I recently started at a university, and because of their class availability I have to drive there 4 times a...

    i think my valve cover gasket is blown?

    It's burning more oil than usual, and I have been noticing oil seeping out of that general area by the oil cap. My question is, when installing a new gasket, do I need to use the sealant on it, or would dabbing oil on it be sufficient? I found a good diy on myfastgti for it...

    I'm looking into replacing my fuel filter. The one that came with the car is the one that says UFI on it, but on ECS there's also that VW one. If the VW one is the oem one, how come the one that came on the car is the one that says UFI on it:iono:. And which one should i get in this case?
