Yes mate, hence i kept hold of my 16v kit as a spare for my TDI wagon but decided if the clutch goes il get an upgrade instead as the engine power is going up anyway and the torque on these when tuned is renowned for killing clutches.

Sorry for not replying but I have being at my unit that dosen't have internet as yet! (bt do things in there on time). I say sachs - luk or borg and beck are all similar clutches.

I do the later 8v borg and beck kit for £82 and the 16v kit is £88 (I can't sell clutches any cheaper, then again I believe I am a it cheaper for mine than ecp and gsf?). If you need other items I'm sure I can come to some deal.

VR6 clutch should be number 3000 384 001 and 16v 94+ is 3000 332 001 (both are 228mm clutch kits, I can buy sachs from Germany but they are e180 over there! I still don't understand why German brands are so much more expensive in the home country (I sell febi back to Germany as I'm much cheaper than a local seller!))
