TEFF's Octavia vRS

<< < (8/13) > >>

i am afraid also with the DSG torque limit because i don't have the REVO DSG Stage 2. This night i will meet with my local Revo dealer and he will take my revo stage 1 to a little less power and torque. I want to play it safe. It doesn't matter if i have 270 or 310hp, the roads in Romania are like crap. When i will make a turbo upgrade, then i will go up with the power. Until then i don't want to force the DSG or the Turbo

Hurdy:
Teff,

500nm is a lot. The REVO DSG map upgrades the clutch holding power to 500nm, so you are at the limit. The DSG clutchpacks are relatively strong. Mine is running 562nm at the fly (548nm measured at the wheels!) and is holding up with no slippage, but I too sometimes wonder if it is a matter of time or not before slippage rears it's ugly head :laugh:

xht20:
But, i would had been nice if there existed an upgrade to DSG internals :drool:. Like on the manual gearbox you can get an upgraded clutch kit.

i dont think the dsg will slip it will just go bang and be in bits  :scared: as a few people have found out the hard way

I have a spare.....just in case :jumping:


HPA do an uprated clutchpack. The internal bearings are SKF, so should be okay as long as they aren't dodgy bearings from the start. :smiley:
