Ok well i have just had a quote to do a lot of work to my golf gt tdi 150. The work needed is the following....
New clutch kit
New duel mass fly wheel
New cam belt
New water pump
New gearbox oil
Full service
All bearings and bolts for clutch and fly
All genuine VW parts
Labour and VAT included
Now this is all done by an indipendant garage not VW, but they will use a genuine parts.
Before i tell you the price lets have a few guesses......????????
:cry:
-
£1400+
-
I cant bring myself to guess, Im in pain just thinking of the cost :(
-
£1652.42 :huh: :laugh:
-
*rings up VW*
-
1879.56 :huh:
-
£1500.00
you thinking about remapping? if so don't put a standard clutch back in. Instead add another £400 to my estimate :laugh:
-
Well TJG was closest with a tad over £1400.... I thought that was not a bad price really. Dont know weather to just get the clutch done and sell it or keep it and spend the cash..... Dont know how much the cars worth, it a 2002 gt tdi 150 with cream leather heated seats, climate control, 79k on the clock, mot and tax, santa monicas and its a 5 door. No mods. It only needs a clutch but thoght i might get the full works to make it mint. Any offers on the car as it is??? I can get a clutch fitted for £400.

Keep the car and fix it if you buy another you may run across more problems.

Sounds like a lovely spec. Id get an uprated clutch and remap it. The 150 remaped will be animal !! :shocked:

Ask Steve_PD for a ride in his 150 on Saturday Alan - bring clean underpants mind :grin: :grin:

Im scared it will be faster than mine :(
Its all well and good me having plenty of ponnies but I dread to think what sort of torque figures he has.

well when he had it on a rolling road the other week with a dodgy boost control valve on on his 190 map he made 293lbs ft torque and 188bhp :shocked: he does have a 200bhp map which i believe he's now running again
-
Well maybe i will keep her, do you think its worth doing the fly as its over 400 notes. The original might be ok but the garage said it might be worth replacing it anyway?

get the flywheel from GSF for approx £230 mate :afro:
worth doing it as it will be past its best and later on down the line will take out your new clutch so you will end up replacing both!

Exhaust mount has gone tits up (not a problem as Milltek is going on Saturday) and my CV gaitor has split so needs replacing. Having spoke to some of the MK5 chaps a few of them have had split gaitors, and in true VW style they wont replace it under warrenty (even though its a known common problem) as its class as wear and tear, which I spose is fair enough, but it still like to moan about it :D
Steve, that is a shocking life span for a tyre :shocked:
-
hahah Steve you speed demon!! :evil: i would liek a ride too more to see what the ride comfort is like on those weitec collies ;) plus get to sit in those nice leather seats!!
ive never been a passenger in a modded golf, only ever driven mine so again would be interesting to see what its like as its always differnt when your a passenger, really want to get mien on a RR and see if it makes the 210 that Nick and Ben said it would :evil:
