I deffo do not want be paying ANYWHERE near 550 quid lol.

Can anyone confirm how to tell if my flywheel needs replacing without taking everything to bits? I get no weird sounds, vibration or anything?

Also if I was to stick the proper 1.8T oem stuff in, again is sachs stuff good? Seen a clutch kit for 125 inc vat for example.

just ditch the DMF, no real way of telling if it's knackered until you pull it out. I wouldn't go back now
