Coil pack failures and engine misfires have been a chronic problem for many VW/Audi owners. The symptoms are predictable: the engine misfires and the check engine light illuminates steadily, or blinks. Ignore the problem and you'll ruin your expensive catalytic converter and fail your local emissions test. Replace your failed components or do it now before it's too late with our Ignition Service Kit.

Nothing improves the appearance of your VW like new lighting. The exterior of the MK6 Jetta centers primarily around it's lighting. The good part about this is that you have the ability to easily refresh and update the styling of your car with a simple upgrade. Whether you want stunning LED upgrades or projector headlights, ECS Tuning has all the bases covered. These lights will upgrade the look of your vehicle, while keeping it simple and in many cases even improve your nighttime lighting.

Why use wheel studs instead of wheel bolts? When removing and installing wheels that utilize the factory wheel bolts, excessive, unnecessary wear is placed on the wheel hub itself. This premature wear on an expensive component is costly and difficult to repair. Wheel studs also allow the use of varying length wheel spacers - a highly convenient feature for those that anticipate using different spacer size setups in the future. Both conical and ball seat lug nuts are available for a maximum of 10mm or 20mm wheel spacer use.

Things getting a little flabby south of the hood latch? Is mashing on the "go" pedal producing wheel hop or worrisome driveline vibration? If your factory mounts have thrown in the towel, don't waste your time installing more of the same. Move up to tough and durable mounts and bushings from ECS Tuning. Made of premium aluminum, plated steel, and potent polyurethane, our mounts and bushings are made for anyone who wants something more than parts designed for "average" drivers

Ready to blow off a little steam? Get Forge under your hood. Stock diverter valves just can't handle performance upgrades. Add a little boost and they get all weak in the knees and go to pieces. Forge knows this. That's why they've engineered boost-hardy blow-off valves tough enough to take the pressure without blowing their lids. Aluminum housing. Faster Response. Works and plays well with engine management systems.

GEOMET® is a special coating containing metal oxides, zinc, and aluminum flakes, sprayed over the entire rotor surface to ensure complete coverage, and baked on at 600 degrees to form a durable and attractive silver-gray finish that fights rust far better than paints or other conventional coatings. Slotted or drilled and slotted, you can expect your new GEOMET® rotors to outperform and outlast stock rotors, and look great behind your alloy wheels.

Make sure your plugs are firing at voltage levels that ensure optimal combustion and peak performance. If your old coils are tired and unable to do the job, an ignition service kit from ECS Tuning will put some zap in the gap when you need it most. Our ignition service kits are easy to install and come with everything you need to restore secondary ignition efficiency firing at voltage levels sure to get the most from each and every power stroke.

The MKIV Jetta 2.0L is especially responsive to airflow modifications because of its restrictive factory airbox - small changes in air density can effect huge changes in engine power & smoothness. The in-house engineered ECS XAS system uses a mandrel bent 76.2mm (3.0") diameter aluminum pipe and 4-ply silicone couplers, completely replacing the restrictive OE air box and intake snorkel. Because air is drawn primarily from outside the engine bay, intake air temperatures are cooler, increasing cylinder pressure for stronger engine operation.
