Well bought my golf knowing there was some clutch slip :laugh: but already has the G6o flywheel and vr6 clutch conversion well after two weeks of ownership i have decided its time to bite the bullet and sort it was going to be lazy and get the clutch kit and let a local garage fit it but they are wanting to much money so i will be fitting it in my garage saves labour rates! :grin: ordered this one: http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/c/Volkswagen_Golf_2.8_1996/p/car-parts/car-transmission/clutch-and-associated-parts/clutch-kit/?641440660&1&bc37de266ef97df2f579c1787084f49d9832f815&000069
Can't wait to get this done now so i can have a decent clutch and hopefully find the fault of the existing clutch i know what company fitted it and looks like a bad job :undecided:
-
Is that the full kit to replace the standard? :shocked:
-
You will probably find the ring that holds the springs in the clutch has disintegrated lol mine did you could turn the clutch whilst keeping the splined part in a vice good luck with the swap it's not that bad to be fair took me about 6 hours overall on the driveway in the rain

yes three piece kit for a vr6 as its the conversion funnily enough the oem mk4 clutch is more expensive :laugh:
