vr6/g60 clutch on mk4

[Rhyso]

Neah, my ass is sore from the pounding VW have been giving me to get my door module sorted!!

I wonder if my clutch is ok sometimes.  I sometimes find it hard to get it to go into 1st, and sometimes when going into second it doesn't seem to go in 100% and I get a crunching sound, like a learner trying to change gear

Mod squad top tip :
Try putting some white grease on the moving parts on top of the gearbox - works wonders

Get Redline one of the staff cars has just had it done on his A3 1.8T at AMD and was very impressed with the results.

It is recommended to change the flywheel when you change the clutch to save on two lots of labour.
Be prepared for a shock when you start getting prices

is your car mapped or standard? if standard do you plan to get it mapped?

if no map and no plans put a standard one in

flyhweel £210
Release bearing £40
Clutch kit - not sure - around £200 - £300

if mapped go uprated - i fitted the Sachs clutch from JBS Autodesigns - £468 though! but will work with the flywheel and bearing i priced above
