Post by: jake-w07 on 25 March 2014, 16:01

My clutch is beginning to slip on my 1.8t auq(6speed), im not running big bhp just stage 1. Clutch has never been changed before since new and im on 123k so its probably due been given a decent price for a like for like oem clutch kit just wondering what kits people are using??

Probably wear and tear. Maybe a weak clutch before the map?

Look at the G60 fly and VR clutch swap. I run it on my MK3 AUQ conversion and the bite is perfect with no slip at all.  :smiley:

I do a solid flywheel and clutch conversion kit for £310 for 240mm clutches. (brand is national clutch and these have a 2 year no quibble warranty)

Single mass set up won't work on an AUQ because of the 6 speed box.

Dom can I ask why. The kit i listed is for a auq 6 speed and classed as direct replacement

I may be wrong then, the G60/VR6 setup definitely doesn't fit, a quick google search shows other kits

My kit at £310 isn't too expensive.  It doesn't come with a new slave cylinder which is £50. But is still lots cheaper than a new dmf and clutch and is a specific auq kit

This is the kind of price that the kits usually are:

That's a helix kit which are a proper paddle type and I find a bit on or off in use.  That will no doubt handle very high power outputs and overkill for most cars
