You know what’s interesting? IF you’d have read not only what I wrote, but others as well, you’d see that my question was if the oil pump was different from the previous years. I also pointed out that the 2015-2017 was not the same part number, per ECS’ website.
If you also had known wtf you were talking about, you would’ve also noticed that others have taken their cars to dealers with a stalling issue, and thicker oil was added, AGAINST the recommended 0w-20 based on the manual.
of course, you’re obviously more worried about being a know it all jack ass. Read next time.
OP asked if the 19 GTI has the Budak cycling. Response, what, 2 answered that. Then this thread got derailed by what oil pump the ‘19 cars used, and it was put out, yes it’s different than previous years. Then we went down the tired and ever present oil grade debate. It’s finny that your fall back seems to always be after market companies. DAP, ECS, yet you don’t go back to mother VW to pull directly from the source. When that crazy notion is brought up, you attack people for it. I think Tommy Boy said it best about a butcher and a steak. I used to work for a company that was not unlike DAP and/or ECS. I also used to field the tech calls from chuckleheads like yourself that would call and regurgitate the shit they “heard from blah blah” or “saw on YouTube” or what ever, then drone on for an eternity until I just gave them what they wanted to hear so I could hang up.
I am pretty familiar with the stalling issue, as I have a 2019 GTI 6mt. I also didn’t have stalling issues, nor did I stray from the factory required oil spec. I also had the flash done, and know the changes it made first hand. I also know that the band-aid of changing to the incorrect oil spec did not fix many cars. I also know that there is yet to be one single verified recurrence of the stalling issue after that car got the flash. It’s almost like the ECU was causing the issue, and not an oil spec.
I find it terribly ironic that you call others out for being a “know it all jack ass” or an “imbecile” because they didn’t drink your brand of kool-aid. But I guess that’s what is wrong with automatons like you, just tantrum until opposing views go away, then rival in your artificial self worth.
It’s cool man. I get it. Keep calling and asking the same dumb as shit questions, someone will eventually tell you what you want to hear.
TLDR: I weep for the future.
