Finally got my car back today and the issue was fixed under warranty. The dealership replaced the whole clutch kit - clutch, flywheel, pressure plate, bearings, etc. On the invoice it states that a rivet was loose in the pressure plate and something else was wrong with it.
Pros: issue was fixed
Cons: rivet was loose
Mileage: 10000 km
I put the LUK kit on and now the car works beautifully!!!!!!! My vote goes with LUK
Pros: car works beautifully

Okay, transmission of power; I found a heavy duty Sachs clutch kit, it has 20% increased clamping force. Pressure plate, clutch disc, throwout bearing, push rod, bushing and seal, clutch cable and all new bolts, and the release arm just in case.
Pros: increased clamping force

LUK clutch kits are great. VW uses two companies for OEM clutches, LUK and SACHS. There is no difference between the two other then the name.
Pros: clutch kits are great
Cons: no difference between names
I've got a 2003 Jetta 1.8T GLS Manual (canadian model, made in mexico), and the clutch burnt out, was slipping and was trying to sell it to a family member, well they burnt the clutch out on the test drive and now I just want to get a stock replacement (so don't need a racing clutch, etc;)
I'm not very knowledgeable when it comes to car repair, I did my research, called around, the VW dealer tells me the "high cost" the local repair shops quote me something else, everyone has different parts, and part numbers.
If anyone could give me some feedback? I have 2 mechanics that told me if I buy the part, and save money they will install it. But I want to make sure I get the correct part.
Here are the following clutch kits that I've found:
*$379 Sachs W0133-1891446 Clutch Kit*
http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/sku/Volkswagen/Jetta/Sachs/Clutch_Kit/2003/GLS/4_Cyl_1-dot-8L/W0133-1891446.html
(looks like it includes the flywheel + conversion components, other cheaper ones do not).
*$295 Valeo W0133-1889745 Clutch Kit*
http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/sku/Volkswagen/Jetta/Valeo/Clutch_Kit/2003/GLS/4_Cyl_1-dot-8L/W0133-1889745.html
(no flywheel kit, but a little cheaper)
The site 'matches' my VW when I put in the details, however I'm not sure what to look for here.
Thoughts? Would appreciate any feedback :)

I am experiencing an issue with my SPEC stage 1 clutch kit. It chattered right after install and I am talking right after start-up and during idle. We called spec within a week of the install and they told us to keep it in for the rest of the break in period (500 miles) and it should go away. Fast forward to now and it chatters WAY loud. I also have a grinding/slipping noise when pulling out on a really steep hill. I drive 45 miles each way to work (highway) and I have never raced my car before. i do not even know if i could deliberately destroy a clutch in 12,000 miles.
Cons: chattered right after install, grinding/slipping noise
Mileage: 12000 km
