2e clutch ...which 1?
« on: 15 February 2011, 23:32 »
CLUTCH GONE in my 2.0 8v 2e....I have seen a brand new clutch for this.....
A black diamond  dpc 8009  going really cheap like 40 quid brand new in box,

Simple questions...

1) will this fit my motor engine no.531824?

2) this doesnt come with release bearing ....should I track 1 and fit while im at it?

3) Is it worth putting in an uprated clutch or do hey become hard to drive in NORMAL use????

Just fit a standard Sachs or Luk kit, no real need for a uprated clutch

Well it looks like it is for a 2e: http://www.kpautomotive.co.uk/golf-engine-black-diamond-clutch-p-2126.html

Might only be £40 but will be heavier than standard and is not needed unless you running big power.
