Forge Motorsport Releases Alloy Radiator for Golf GTI Mk7

Forge Motorsport’s range of precision tuning parts for hot VWs continues to grow at an ever-more impressive rate, and the latest design to emerge from the company’s Gloucestershire R&D division is this stunning ‘OEM+’ radiator for the sharply styled VW Golf Mk7 GTI.

Forge’s engineering team looked long and hard at the factory design in order to create an uprated and larger part that still fits on the stock mounts, with no cutting or trimming of any sort required. This new radiator is a vast improvement over the efficacy of the OEM part and uses a thicker core with greater thermal efficiency to improve the capacity of the car’s cooling system.

This is ideal for installation on tuned or competition vehicles, or where an uprated intercooler has been installed that might restrict airflow. As you might expect from Forge, although the part is made to their usual motorsport quality, this unit is still compatible with vehicles fitted with air conditioning.

As standard, the radiator comes with black end tanks and a silver core to replicate the OEM look. If required, drivers can choose and even more stealthy ‘all black’ finish for those that want to be cool and utterly subtle all at the same time.

As well as an improved flow path, Forge’s engineers have maximised the surface area and utilised a high efficiency radiator core with a unique flow enhancement to ensure that the coolant passes evenly across the core and that the area of restricted airflow (behind the crash bumper) is taken into account.

The Forge Golf Mk7 Radiator has been carefully designed to bolt in as a direct replacement to the OEM part in a short time, with the most simple of hand tools. It is priced at £577.00 + VAT.

Review: Saying Goodbye to the CC V6

For all its size and its global reach, Volkswagen is still, in many ways, a deeply human company. There was, for instance, the Bugatti Veyron an ego project if ever there was one. Then the purchase of Ducati, a move most called folly. And then there was the Phaeton, the Volkswagen that most folks can’t afford. Not only were these moves all strange, I’m sure that they made VW’s accountants furious. None of them made good business sense, but they were all deeply interesting and they all are evidence of the heart that beats at the center of VW. Among these follies is the CC, a car that everyone agrees is rakishly handsome, but that no one really wanted to buy. The car couldn’t last, but the world is brighter for its having been in it. With the approach debut of the Arteon, it seems like a good time to look back on its sadly departing predecessor. The version I drove, because I live in Canada, is a V6 Wolfsburg Edition, which apparently isn’t available in the States. Nor is the V6, not as...

More 3.0-Liter TDI Settlement Details Expected by January 31

Volkswagen and the TDI Plaintiff’s Steering Committee were in court today for another status conference following the agreement in principal reached earlier this week. Little new information was given at the conference held before Judge Charles Breyer today, but the court ordered the parties to develop a formal settlement agreement, class action notices, and a class notice plan by January 31, 2017. For now, though, owners still don’t know how much to expect in compensation. Elizabeth Cabraser, lead Counsel for the Plaintiff’s Steering Committee reaffirmed in a statement today that the compensation would be “substantial.” The potential cost to Volkswagen is widely reported to exceed $1 billion, though, with an additional $225 million going into an environmental trust to help offset excess emissions. Buy back offers are still only expected for the oldest 20,000 of the roughly 80,000 VW Group vehicles sold in America with the 3.0-liter TDI engine. Those vehicles are mostly SUVs, like ...
