I'm not sure what's in the 2009 Jetta TDI. The 2005 Jetta TDI GLS I wanted was sold before I could get the money together ($3000 down payment, I needed a month), so I've decided to buy a brand new one. I'll void the warranty immediately.
So I'm thinking, I want to do some upgrades. A better suspension system (front struts, shocks and springs in the back-- that rear suspension is awesome by the way); some good drilled brake rotors; performance street brake pads (not silly racing pads that can't stop until they're hot); flush with synthetic DOT-4 brake fluid; and stainless steel brake lines. Maybe a Stage 2 clutch, but that stock clutch is freaking nice. Pull the tires and put on some nice ones (I like Goodyear TripleTred tires, Assurance or Fortera... it doesn't snow much here at all).
I know this is a silly thing to do to a brand new car, trashes the warranty. I probably won't do it right away, maybe ... getting the clutch and suspension early would let me ebay those out though.
Any thoughts?
