I have been experiencing the usual clutch slippage that many of the Golf R's with Stage 2+ have been experiencing....and after much debate and searching I decided to go with a Sachs SRE Performance Clutch kit. Today was the install...and the single mass flywheel kit (883089.000034 - http://www.sachsperformance.com/Sac...I-169-kW-;-BYD-;-09/2006/SRE-Performance-Clutch-Kit-One-Mass-Flywheel::155.html ) bolted right up with no issues. The clutch is stiffer then stock....it's hard to put a % on it...but it's stiffer then stock. It's not too stiff though - I've had two knee surgeries on my left knee and I didn't have any issues with it driving around. I haven't heard any of the \"clatter\" that has been associated with the single mass flywheel. I do have a slight groan when accelerating heavily at low rpms.....and it is a little louder then stock when I let off the gas and coast...but nothing that is going to bother me. The clutch release is a little higher then stock. The new setup is more \"spot on\" when being engaged....and you can really feel it grab. Overall I don't think my wife will notice the change....and I am happy with the results.
Owner reviews for clutch kit
:sly::facepalm:
I have an 03 AWP GTI 1.8t. My clutch was dying on me recently and I did some research. I went with Sachs VR6 Single-mass lightweight 14lbs flywheel clutch kit. The clutch feels a bit different for sure, in my opinion. This is just what I have experienced and may not be the same across the board. On the highway in 5th gear, when I hit around 3k RPM's, I get a drone while accelerating and sometimes while coasting. It's sort of a low, pulsing sound. It goes away as soon as I disengage the clutch and coast though. Also, at first, the clutch was super \"grabby.\" Like... more sensitive than my stock clutch. I've finally gotten used to it (2 months later).
Exedy Stage 3 Hyper Single clutch kit. 11lbs lighter than stock unit.
i have the parts you need to replace
i just put my valeo clutch kit in, i got it from GAP about a month ago, itworks PERFECT, came with disc, pressure plate, TO bearing & alignment tool & some lube, i got the kit for $170 valeo & sachs are equal in quality, i would deffinitly buy another 1, it works excellent :thumbup:
i'm gonna order this stuff from ECS this week
I have the stage 1 F1 kit on my VR6 and also my 8v (G60 trans using this VR6 kit), it is a genuine Sachs pressure plate and TOB, only the disc is Japanese. The disc is made by ASCO, which is Aisin the same people who made several transmissions for VW/Audi. You are not getting junk by any means, the products are OEM brands.
It's an autotech 10lb flywheel that I have used before with a luk clutch kit. Only changed to the Clutchnet kit.
So the clutch kit is a LUK complete kit along with fly wheel. New development as of last night. Got home and my son was waiting for me in the driveway. He told me that the clutch pedal basicly just goes to the floor.
