Volkswagen Golf GTI (Mk7.5) 2017–2021 Performance Parts & Upgrades
The Volkswagen Golf GTI (Mk7.5) is the 2017 facelift of the Mk7, sold new in Australia from 2017 to 2021. It keeps the 2.0L EA888 turbo four-cylinder and front-wheel drive, and the range included the GTI Performance Edition 1 and the GTI TCR. It shares the MQB platform with the Golf R, so many parts cross over. This page lists the parts we stock for the GTI Mk7.5, led by APR, COBB, LEYO and HARDRACE, with Wavetrac diffs, Scorpion and Borla exhausts, Wagner Tuning intercoolers and Alcon, AP Racing, Brembo and Paragon brakes.

Choosing the Right Part
- Brake size: Mk7.5 GTIs came with 312mm or larger 340mm front brakes depending on model. Match rotors and pads to what is fitted.
- Mk7 or Mk7.5: engine and most chassis parts are shared, but some exhausts, such as the APR and Borla cat-backs, are listed for the Mk7.5 only.
- Front diff: some GTI models have a factory electronically controlled front diff. Check your model before choosing a Wavetrac and its fitting kits.
Installation
Have a qualified workshop fit suspension, brake, driveline and engine parts. Get a wheel alignment after any suspension change, and bleed and road-test the brakes after brake work. Intake, intercooler and downpipe upgrades work best with a tune, such as the COBB Accessport.
