Hmmm, my brother just got his clutch replaced at a cost of £499. Is that pretty expensive or is it me ? They did exactly as you mention changing the clutch for a VR6 item and got rid of the dualmass flywheel.
Thanks ;)
I also got the VR6/G60 kit, the price was 450$ fitted. Can anyone tell me what's the maximum power that this kit will be good for?

Spot on guide Rich
Here's a link to the VR6 clutch kit i found. couldnt find the sachs clutch kit anywhere else. tried the links in this threas, but they didnt work. Good advice btw :afro:
http://www.expresscarparts.co.uk/
you just need to click "catalogue" and then select VW golf vr6, etc, and click on "clutch parts"
then you have the clutch kit, which is second one down from the top. Sachs part no 3000384001.
Total price is around £105. it says estimated delivery of £7.95, so i guess that can go up or down. but i'm going to be ordering mine this week :)

Is it going to fit to Audi A3 1.8T AUM Quattro 5-speed?
Looking into this at the mo. Just got this all priced up:
VW G60 flywheel (028105269bx), its now £114 + 30 surcharge. I haven't got the exchange so I'll be hit with full wack.
VW Bolts:
6off N90206103 @ £2.43 each
6off N10101001 @ £0.40 each
Quoted £100 + vat for the Sachs VR6 clutch kit (3000384001) at local motor factors
Also quoted £160 fitting.
Jobs a goodun, just got to convince our lass to raid the savings again..... gulp
Squeak went after a week or so :smiley:
Left now with a clutch that feels 200% better than the old setup!
Just not sure what to do with the big box full of bits left over now... :tongue:

Is going to fit Golf MK3 AFN 1.9 TDI 110 h.p., the car is remmaped and a friend is looking for a suitable clutch?
anyone got an actuall guide on fitting a vr6 / g60 flywheel mk4?
are 2nd hand clutch something to stay away from or will they be ok, clutch it self has done 1.5k from new its also a Sachs, i know these are strong clutchs so 1.5k on them should be ok :undecided:
was at the scrappy the other day and seen a mk3 gti, wonder if it had a g60 fitted, any way of knowing, and i have no idea how to remove it, it hard? any guides as the vortex one aint workin.
cheers rich, gonna be a nightmare for me wit no pics. its kl though, not gonna worry about this till im thinkin about a re-map, just thought i could save some cash by gettin this 1. also what do i get off an new 1 if i swap it in.
Can anyone post a link to sashs vr6 clutch kit cheap?
Was no link to order on vwspares?
noticed quite a few places to find the vr6 clutch. is there anywhere i can purchase the flywheel, besides breakers or dealers?
Is you car standerd? As the cluch itself might only be good for 150bhp. maybe ask in shop and see what thay say :)
Yes completely standard, with no intentions of any power upgrades in the near future, I'd like to find somebody who has tried, but if not by the time it comes to buying a may well go for it!
i thought about this kit, just remember that the lightened flywheel means u need to change gear quite quickly as the rev's of the engine drop quicker, i opted for the g60 flywheel as it means u can still drive the car comfortably and not have to rush a gear change. the info i've just shared was gained from trawling through many threads on the subject and weighing up the options. my vr6 + G60 upgrade is happening on saturday, so i'll let u know how i get on :)

Just my experience in this, i have now fitted a lightened G60 flywheel and standard vr6 clutch and i have no rattle.
My flywheel has been lightened by 3kg which is a fair bit. This was done by a friend on a lathe, who just ran a clock on it to make sure it was running true, then turned the back face down.
Im not saying that if you do the same, that yours wont, but i can state mine makes no funny noises whatsoever.
Id say go for it :afro:
Anyone on this forum know if this works on the audi a3 1.8T agu aswell? I understand they are the same engine but is the gearbox ect all the same?
My clutch has just started slipping and im really considering this.
Help appreciated.
