Now that it is almost here.....
Any suggestions for rubber floor mats ? Does the dealer still have them
or are the Weathertech mats a better option.

How about oil weight ? In my GTI and syncro (which like thicker oil in
the summer) I used Mobil 1 15w-50 in the summer and 10W-30 in the
winter(less lifter noise when starting up). I now noticed that Mobil 1
now has a 0W-40 "European car" formula.

I have been looking around for winter wheels and tires any good leads or
links ? I will need to switch as I am running on 17X8's with summer tires.

I appreciate all the responses I received from my last post.

Thank You !!!
