The Sachs come with the performance package. Totally worth every penny if you like to mod, track, and auto cross. The Sachs struts have different valving but much better performance than base suspension setup. They also work great with aftermarket performance springs (RCE Yellows work perfectly with the Sachs). I have a 2018 BRZ with the Performance Package with Brembo brakes and love it.

Pros: worth every penny, better performance, works with springs

Vehicle: Subaru BRZ

Bounce:

Sachs was the OEM for the struts on my old e39 bmw 528i w/ sports package. I had gotten 60k miles after replacing them before trading the car in.

If they are good enough to be original equipment on a BMW they’re probably pretty good.

Pros: OEM quality, good durability

Vehicle: BMW

Mileage: 60000 km

Engagement smoothness:

I went with the "Performance" clutch kit from Sachs directly for ~$1300 including dual mass flywheel, clutch disc, pressure plate, and throw out bearing. Rated to 550+Nm. No regrets. Was SUPER stiff when I first got it, but loosened up within 300-400 miles and feels close to stock now in terms of clutch effort, more grabby than stock.

Pros: more grabby than stock, no regrets

Cons: SUPER stiff when new

Mileage: 400 km

Check rockauto. They have some brand name clutch kits for your car (sachs, valeo,luk). They also have the dual mass flywheel for your car as well for much less than 900$. You may not even need the flywheel replaced.

Pros: brand name clutch kits

Vehicle: MINI

Slip:
Noise:

I have a used Sachs Performance clutch kit w/ single mass flywheel for TSI engines for sale. This came off my GTI when I replaced a squeaky throwout bearing. Had I known what was in the car to begin with I would have kept this clutch kit but I had already ordered a new one. The setup still clamped well without slipping before removal but the flywheel and pressure plate surfaces do have discoloration due to heat (see pictures).

Pros: clamped well without slipping

Cons: discoloration due to heat

Vehicle: Volkswagen

Yesterday, I purchased a replacement OEM Sachs clutch kit off of Amazon. I received it today and this is what I got. It looks nothing like the stock photo on Amazon so I'm thinking I received the wrong part?

Cons: wrong part received

Shudder:

That is extremely high! The labor time is 9.2 hours. Bolts from the dealerships are always out of line. You can purchase a dual mass flywheel kit for $1100, if that what the factory one is. Sachs makes some clutch kits with a flywheel that sells for $750 online.

Pros: flywheel kit available online

Cons: bolts from dealerships expensive
