Changing your Audi, BMW, or Volkswagen's oil on schedule ensures your engine will live a healthy and long operational life. While changing your oil might be straightforward, those who regularly do it themselves likely find the little annoyances that make it more trouble than it could be. With our new Schwaben Thread-In Oil Funnels, you can quickly thread this funnel into your oil filler cap for a hands-free and mess-free result when you pour in that new liquid gold. Make services easy for yourself and you'll begin to enjoy them even more!

Upgrade your old or leaky Water Pump with the Assembled By ECS Upgraded Aluminum Water Pump. Water Pump failure can lead to your vehicle making an unnecessary trip to the repair shop. If your pump stops working, coolant temperatures rise rapidly and can overheat the engine, leading to head gasket or even piston ring failure. This is a great preventative maintenance item when doing any type of timing belt replacement.

Give your Audi or Volkswagen a set of new wheels that look fantastic and reduce your unsprung weight with brand new APR Flow Formed wheels. Their new styles are designed for perfect fitment and accept your OEM center caps.

The brand new HPA IS38 turbocharger upgrades offer you the big power potential you want from your MQB Audi or Volkswagen. Featured on our recent Rallywagen expedition to South America, the new IS38 upgrades allow you to support up to 450HP with reliability and peace of mind in even the toughest conditions.

When VW developed the MK7 Jetta, they produced a capable sedan platform with tons of potential. What it offered in styling and luxury, it certainly lacks in aggressive exterior styling. That's where the brand-new ECS Trunk Spoiler helps. The motorsport-inspired ducktail spoiler conforms to the contours of your MK7 Jetta precisely and mimics the factory styling while it improves the profile and portrait dramatically with unmatched gloss black flair.

ECS Carbon Fiber Under Hood Covers add a smooth and consistent style when you open the hood of your VW. The attention to detail and uniform look shows off your dedication to making a clean thing of beauty out of the chaos that is the engine bay. The hand laid carbon fiber weave of our covers provide a tasteful improvement to pieces under the hood you otherwise just try to ignore. Covering your battery, fuse box, engine, and more with our ECS Carbon Fiber Covers is the best way to clean up your engine with a race-inspired theme.

Your MK7 Jetta is a perfect example of a do-it-all car. With a blend of sport and comfort capabilities, a full-sized sedan frame, and those good good turbo noises, the MK7 Jetta checks all the boxes. But if you want it to be a little bit more sporty than sedate, you need the new ECS Rear Diffuser and Borla Cat-Back quad-tip exhaust system to give your Jetta a beefy sound and aggressive looks.

Finding places to put gauges in your MK7 Jetta or GLI isn't difficult; just bolt them up wherever they are still visible. For a solution that doesn't look like an afterthought that involved many zip ties and poor decisions, CJM Gauges has you covered with their Defrost Vent Pods to house two of your information displays without making those gauges look like you just tossed them in your interior and said 'that'll do.

Last year, we sent VW Brand Ambassador Jamie Orr on a trip all across the country in a pre-production MK5 Sportwagen we affectionately called the Rallywagen where it ended in the Arctic Circle. This year we picked up a VW MK7 GTI and decided to build it here at ECS to debut at SEMA and then head South to drive all the way to the tip of South America on some of the most demanding roads. Rallywagen 2.0 was fully constructed in-house by our team of engineers.

Simple improvements to the front of the brand new MK7 Jetta take it from a mild commuter car to an aggressive and striking statement in modern European tuning. With our new Carbon Fiber Front Bumper Grille Accents, you can add an angular element to your MK7 Jetta that helps to set your car apart from the rest.

Ever tried removing a radio trim bezel with a screwdriver or metal putty knife? Ugly. Ineffective. Metal prying tools gouge, scratch, and crack expensive interior parts adding needless cost and aggravation to any repair or accessory installation requiring trim panel removal. Stop the madness. Invest in one of our affordable trim removal kits. Large kit or small, our trim removal tools are made of tough, non-marring molded plastic, brightly colored so you won't leave them behind when the job is done. Do it right. Do it faster. Schwaben.

Take an oil change and make it better with the new MQB Magnetic Drain Plug from ECS. Protection in the form of the best lubrication is the best way to keep everything silky-smooth, but metal-to-metal contact is inevitable. In order to keep your engine free of that microscopic contamination, our new magnetic drain plug is the perfect preventative measure to maintain your engine's performance for a long and successful life.

Nothing says dedication like something unique that also offers performance benefits. For the discerning enthusiast who wants to show off that little bit of extra effort, the new Forge Motorsport Limited Edition Purple Blow Off Valves are perfect.

The ECS Silicone Turbo Inlet Hose for the VW MK7 Golf/Jetta 1.4T was designed in-house with a high-quality 5-ply reinforced construction to provide a strong but flexible structure and secure fit. Smooth bends and internal walls with a counterbored outlet provides unimpeded airflow, while the smooth, gloss black exterior adds an appearance upgrade to any engine bay.

Forced induction engines are fantastic tuner platforms because they offer easily accessible power with minor bolt-on upgrades, tunes, and lower restriction. Eventually, though, you reach that ceiling where the capabilities are limited to more critical hardware, like the size and ability of the turbocharger. For you Transverse 2.0T Audi and VW owners, that turbo stands in the way of serious power potential. Thankfully, CTS is here with their brand new K04 Turbo Upgrade to help you reach that next level of performance.

Our new MK6 Jetta 1.4T Turbo Inlet Hose and Airbox Hose are your simplest path to better airflow. By using the factory air box and reducing restriction, we can offer you the best of both worlds: performance benefits without sacrificing OEM looks or equipment under the hood of your MK6 Jetta 1.4T. Go a step further and jump on the Performance Airbox Upgrade Kit that includes a K&N Filter with our in-house engineered upgrade hoses!

The MQB platform is a wonderful thing. Not only does it provide tons of Audi and VW owners with the right sound, power, and feel, but it makes aftermarket support a breeze. With the new 034Motorsport MQB Turbo Inlet Upgrades, you can improve on the already impressive performance from your engine by de-restricting the intake with their high-quality performance parts. Better sound, better performance, and more driving pleasure, all from some simple upgrades designed to work with your MQB platform.

We know, the MK7 Jetta has been out for a minute now and we have done nothing but tease those pre-production goodies since we got our hands on a few cars to use in our development. After extensive testing, re-designing, and an attitude of perfection, we are happy to present our Carbon Fiber Front Lip Spoiler for your MK7 Jetta to give it that motorsport-inspired look that you've been waiting for.

Looking to spice up your interior? Our ECS Tuning Carbon Fiber Steering Wheel Hub Overlay drastically improves your interior with race-inspired carbon fiber material!

Installation is accomplished within minutes and does NOT require removal of the airbag.
