Clutch Gone :(

[Dmoe]

So clutch went on my car last night, anyone got recommendations on what clutch to go for im only going to ever proberly get a stage 1 remap so not thinking i need anything special...

Car LCR 225....

 

[Dan1720v]

What engine would help alot.

 

[Dmoe]

"Balls" lol sorry LCR 225.

I had a LUX clutch fitted and don't forget you'll need a new DMF. It's also a great opportunity to have a LSD fitted while the gear box is out. It's well worth the money to have one fitted at this point.

You don't have to replace the flywheel although it's a good idea to. I didnt on mine but then again I did it myself so I thort if the flywheel lets go I will just do it then.

Any chance of linking me to some sites with the parts I need.

Different clutches for the 5/6 speeds.

Apparently the Standard TDi 150 clutch is fine on a mapped LCR.

I'm in same boat with a bit of clutch slip, will this fit LCR 210. http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/c/V...5e05d992d13219b759c38086042794d7ae0400&000069. It's 240mm diameter and 23 teeth same as standard clutch, what torque rating would this have? Thanks

Local GSF are genuine own replacements without dealer prices.

Yeh wish i could afford this kit but with buying new house aswell atm i need to do it on as cheap as i can, your link didnt work. if anyone could link me to a decent simple clutch kit be much appreciated willing to pay max £250... Thanks

 

[Dan1720v]

£250 + fitting? You'll be lucky tbh, stupid to not do the flywheel aswell.

Thanks ever so much for your help which kit would you go for, seems luk one is more expensive and i was lead to belive the sachs one was better.... Thanks again

 

[Dan1720v]

Depends what flywheel you have. LUK will only fit an LUK flywheel. And sachs will only fit Sachs fly's.

Just because it's not making any noise doesn't mean it's still good. Upto you, I know if I was paying to have one fitted I'd stump up the extra, as £200 for a fly now will be £5/600 if it goes in a month.
