Flywheel question
« on: 09 July 2010, 19:38 »
I've seen a nice gti t for sale, fairly low mileage, decent price and everything. But the advert says it needs a new flywheel. If I was to go look at this car and buy it how much am I looking at to fix / replace the flywheel?
Thanks, Jack  :smiley:

ripe for a VR6/G60 combo change, budget around £300. Will be more expensive for the standard dual mass flywheel/clutch change

Don't know if I want to be going down the mod route just yet. How much for standard? would the clutch need replacing too then?

Standard clutch / flywheel will cost more

Worth changing the clutch as its only one lot of labour
