I am lucky its a weekend car, but that means its always has its neck rung most of the time over that period

Do sachs offer a replacement clutch thats an upgraded original type?

I believe your running a padle type clutch? how is it, bedded in yet?

yes they do and yes mines the paddle type race clutch with vw pressure plate so the pressure is still the same but the bite from the friction plate is more grabby ie once its on there is no letting go  :grin: and its not beddeed in yet but its getting better  :smiley:

this is the VWR/Racingline paddle
snap with the clutch bedding in mat, it is getting better as you say, also mines fitted with eddy30 pressure plate which mark said was stronger than my old stanard GTI,

when i had a very simlar sachs item on my early S3 it took about 800-1k miles to bed in properly, once it did, and I was used to it it wasn't much different to std, in fact the misses got on better with it than I did
