In this episode I discuss the options available for GTI clutches and their advantages. I replace the clutch and flywheel with a SACHS dual mass flywheel and performance clutch. Parts List:
Dual Mass Flywheel: SACHS 2294 001 177 - automotivesuperstore.com.au/s...
Slave Cylinder & Bearing: SACHS 3182 654 150 - automotivesuperstore.com.au/s...
Performance Clutch & Pressure Plate: SACHS 883082 001422 & 881864 999502

its good that you went with the Sachs metal slave cylinder. When I replaced mine, I used what came in my kit which was a LuK dual piece slave cylinder, and after about 2 years its now leaking from where the 2 pieces joins. From what I heard and researched, the all metal one can still fail where the bearing is located just like the plastic one but can't fail where the joint is like the plastic one.

VW doesn't have pilot bearing in the crankshaft?

Hi - thanks for putting this series together. my 2008 gti is about to have the same clutch put in it. What are you long term views on 4 months into living with it every day? I track my golf and whilst its on standard power (no ecu mapping) I might do that later, hence the better clutch now whilst the trans is going to be out. Thanks.

It’s been reliable. The quality of engagement has declined a little, and it’s not as smooth as it used to be to on a low rpm start from stop. SACHS has released a new product though, they now sell a sprung clutch disc rated for 550Nm that’s definitely worth a look! Part number 881861 999878!

Been running this clutch in my s3 for years 50.000km still going strong

I'm about 6 weeks / 3000km with the clutch now and so far so good as a daily driver. Whilst its heavy, it's quite easy to get used to. Can be a little shuddery when engaging at less than 1000rpm but not terrible. Does not tolerate engagement RPM from standstill above about 2000rpm and will very quickly get very smelly. @@saltyfish24

@middle-agedmtbhack8298 mine shuddered for the first 800km or so then settled down

Well said. @@middle-agedmtbhack8298

Hello, is this the first clutch on this vehicle? And do you possibly know which engine code this car has? Thanks

@cheapthrillsgarage 6 месяцев назад

I believe this is the first clutch ever changed on this car, although it has 220,00Km. The engine code is a BWA (Australian delivered build date 09/2006)
