All Things Mk5 > Performance Modifications
Sach clutch fitted but....
Msportman:
It would seem after reading this thread that there are real issues with the MK5 clutches for some. It's a shame as the car is a brilliant package and remapping to these levels should not give issues on a 'performance' clutch!
There is so much more choice on the 1.8t set up....I ran a VR6 Sachs item on my APR Stage 3+ pumping out 350bhp/350lbs and it held it no problem.....cheap as chips from Jabbasport with a singlemass flywheel.
Good luck with it.

Problems here are not torque handling but rather gear engagement smoothness !

Ok, the SMF clutch is back on the car. I will have to do some 500-1000kms before I can WOT but the first impressions are positive. Engagement is definately easier !

I have just recieved my kit, but the bearing is missing, isn't it a part of the kit??? :confused:

No, it isn't. You must buy it separately !
