After your engine produces power, and before your wheels propel your vehicle forward, energy is lost through your drivetrain. These losses are measurable and significant, and are made worse by worn or failing bushings. ECS recognized the need for more performance-oriented differential bushings, and have arrived at another world-class product. The in-house engineered Performance Polyurethane Differential Bushing Sets take care of driveline slop and reduce power deflection, while increasing throttle response and overall drivetrain rigidity.

A critical component within the drivetrain that serves as a vibration and torsion damper, the flex joint bolted between the transmission output shaft and the driveshaft can wear significantly over time. When the unit fails, damage to the underside of the car is unavoidable, and will certainly immobilize the vehicle. Replacing the propeller shaft flex joint not only protects you from this disastrous prospect, but also greatly reduces driveline noise and harshness.

Heavily worn or damaged ignition wires place your engine at risk of cylinder misfire. When one or more cylinders misfire, power declines dramatically, and the safety of each engine component is instantly compromised. By replacing each spark plug wire in one servicing, the probability of this catastrophic consequence is significantly reduced. Karlyn has developed a Spark Plug Wire Set for your MKIII Jetta VR6 that installs the same as the factory set, utilizing stock lengths for a clean engine bay.

Fuel filters remove particulates that can clog and abrade fuel system components. Over time, regular wear and tear can cause clogging in your filter - making it difficult for your engine to get all the fuel it needs. A fresh fuel filter addresses many fuel related problems including surging, stalling, cold start issues, failed emissions tests, and poor engine performance under a variety of conditions. At ECS Tuning, we have a variety of genuine VW & other name brand replacement filters to restore proper gas mileage and give you peace of mind.

If poor weather compromises your visibility when driving, it may be time for new windshield wiper blades. Years of exposure to the elements coupled with the wearing effects of friction can render your wiper blades ineffective and dangerous. The smart and simple remedy is a high-quality wiper blade replacement that matches your car's factory dimensions and style. ECS Tuning offers this 24 inch, OEM-style Valeo Wiper Blade specifically made for the Mercedes-Benz W124 E-Class, guaranteeing fitment and longevity.

Keeping the oil inside your engine is paramount to engine health and longevity. If there is a leak that you're not aware of, your oil can dip to dangerous levels. The valve cover is a common place for leaks. Years of extreme temperatures degrade the gaskets and cause failure. Replace yours to keep your engine leak free.

ECS Exact-Fit stainless reinforced brake lines provide more confident and dependable stopping by maintaining consistent brake pressure, long lasting corrosion resistance, and increased protection from failure. Even when new, factory style fabric mesh lined rubber hoses are prone to expansion under the pressure of hard braking, whether it be highway panic stops or threshold braking at the track. Our lines are braided with stainless steel mesh, affording expansion resistance. This resistance to expansion creates a firmer pedal, and more direct pedal feel.

The impact driver is a fast and effective way to remove tight or corroded screws and bolts, reducing the chance of rounding off--or rounding out--the fastener head. Insert a slotted or Phillips head screwdriver bit into the driver. Place the screwdriver bit into screw head, and strike the driver with a hammer. The impact drives the bit inward as it rotates the screw, breaking it loose. Reverse the tool to tighten fasteners. For stubborn bolts, remove the black screwdriver bit adapter head, and replace it with any 3/8 - inch drive socket.

If you are experiencing a loss of performance or a rough idle with the M273 V8 in your Mercedes-Benz, the PCV System / Oil Separator might be to blame.
