Audi cast aluminum oil pans have a glass jaw that shatters on impact. Installing another is just asking for a repeat performance. The belly pans provided for modern Audi models have always appeared to be under-engineered, out of place, cost-cutting parts. Many enthusiasts have chosen to run their cars without this protective cover entirely. This decision, however, ignores the unfortunate reality that the belly pan protects several critical engine and drivetrain components. ECS Street Shield Aluminum Skid Plate and the stamped steel oil pan replacement both available in one kit!

Reduce weight. Reduce heat. Reduce warping. ECS Tuning engineered 2-Piece semi-floating rotors offer real world benefits that can be felt on both the street and track! Our 2-Piece rotors combine the advantages of weight savings and rapid heat dissipation to provide a rotor superior to stock while preventing warping and extending component life. The reduction of unsprung weight improves handling characteristics under all situations. This reduction in rotational inertia allows for quicker acceleration, decreased braking distances, and more responsive handling.

Are you experiencing squealing noises from the front end of your Mercedes-Benz? A cause of this noise is the drive belt system, or more commonly the belt tensioner on the M272 engine. If it is time to service your drive belt system, why stop at just changing the belt and the tensioner? Over time the idler and guide pulleys will begin to make noise as well after years of use. ECS Tuning has the solution to eliminate the irritating noise and get your engine up and running properly.

ECS now offers a genuine Convertible Rear Trim Kit for the MINI R57. This particular trim seals the top fabric to the boot/trunk upper panels. R57 owners have noticed that over time this seal can start to deteriorate and peel along with the chrome trim fading. The trim seals the bottom of the convertible top truck cabin, keeping dirt and water out of your interior. So if yours is looking old, replace it and restore the look of your MINI convertible. This kit is for the left and right hand side in the rear of the vehicle.

Due to the location of your factory coil pack harness and its close proximity to the exhaust manifold, it is common for the factory harness to become brittle and crack apart over time due to years of heat cycling. This can lead to misfires, rough idle, lack of acceleration, and decreased fuel mileage. ECS Tuning recognized this issue and put our R&D team to work to design a Coil Pack Replacement Harness Kit. This enables you to avoid repairing individual wires or buying the very expensive OEM engine harness. Check out our in-depth instructional PDF.

Factory stock suspensions bring increased tire wear and more frequent tire replacement, as a “full alignment” consists only of rudimentary toe-angle adjustment. For over forty years, K-MAC has been hard at work developing a solution to this problem with patented innovations in camber/caster plates and bushing kits, allowing easy adjustment for a true “full four-wheel alignment” to be performed by any competent shop or individual. KMAC gives you the ability to have your suspension properly dialed in for your use.

Our V4 Rotors are designed to have a double disc ground, taper free finish - this prevents run out through guaranteed parallelism and accurate disc thickness variation (DTV). This process prevents the finish from being directional, facilitating a more effective pad and rotor break in period, along with smooth, silent stopping power for the life of the rotors. ECS V4 rotors will give your car track appeal, complimenting the rest of your wheel and suspension setup.

When it comes to internal engine failure, after getting over the breakdown is trying to get over the fact that it could happen again, once the job is done. If a component is known to fail we all know an upgrade is in order, but if you have no other options the only thing you can count on is doing the job again later. The reason WPC treated bearings work better is due to the way they are manufactured to produce the ultimate level of oil transfer. The treatment consists of the bearing being shot peened at a transonic speed creating a super smooth surface to reduce friction.

The Volkswagen 2.0T powerplant has received numerous awards for its exceptional blend of efficiency and power, adding to the great German tradition of engineering mastery.
