Quaife LSD
« on: 29 April 2008, 15:23 »
Anyone thought of getting one on here yet?

Just been quoted £1,433 inc vat and fitting for a ATB LSD for the DSG box, but I'm a bit hesitant.

Anyone had any other quotes and from whom?

What exactly gets replaced when you get something like this - the complete insides, clutches etc or just bits?

My god thats the biggest pic in the world  :wink:

So surely if you were doing this would you be better off upgrading the clutch packs too - if there are some available?

....Yes, I'm seriously considering it too when my warranty expires. My chats with my trusted guy reckon on about £1k all included.

You won't need upgraded clutches on the DSG just because of an ATB diff - In fact general DSG wear will be improved IIRC.

Here's an earlier thread with some info:- http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=71275.0

while there in the box it may be a good idea to swop the clutch over
