vs
Flywheel Luk or VALEO
Valeo SMF if you’re sticking with NA power. It’s a little noisier but much better feel than a DMF, and much cheaper also.
Pros: better feel than DMF
Cons: a little noisier
I used an OEM LUK flywheel and upgraded to a 4-puck Sachs clutch.
Ahojte, riešim výmenu zotrvačníka na škoda superb 2017 a zaujimalo by ma, či niekto máte skúsenosť s dielami, ktoré sú z prvovýroby od značky Luk.

Gearbox is a major step up in almost all metrics; no jerkyness when launching from 1st gear a lot smoother idle, less noise, vibrations. I have a lightweight SMF, probably with DMF it will be even less long gears, feels super nice on the highway the car is super quiet, feel like its 500-1000 rpm less while cruising. didnt check mpg yet though acceleration is butter smooth, especially pulling 4th gear, big wow feels like you're taking of with a private jet Some downsides clutch pedal is stiff cable shifting isnt as smooth as with the 020
Pros: smoother idle, less noise
Cons: clutch pedal is stiff

I can answer that. i too upgraded my clutch in my 6R with a RSR kit from HS Tuning and even though my stock original flywheel was not too bad of a shape, i opted to have it replaced since i was putting everything else new. So i opted with the LUK version.
Pros: stock flywheel replaced
