I haven't changed my clutch / DMF out yet (106k miles)... but isn't it worthwhile to get the Flywheel done at the same time? I know this depends on your mileage but I'd consider a flywheel change whilst their in there...
gigolo456:
the phrase used was 'overkill' when i mentioned getting a SMF! To be honest, only done 50k miles since new back in 2005, so hoping the flywheel on it will suffice!! But yes, i did ask the question, not to mention that fact it would be about £500 more, and the alleged 'chattering' that would occur!!
Grizzle:
My octavia is on 60k and stage 1 sha-rk map, even before the map it was slipping i think the previous owner rode the clutch and couldnt give a toss about the car.
I ordered this http://www.loba-motorsport.com/shop/audi/a3/8p1-2.0-tdi/190/loba-sachs-vag-2.0-tfsi-/-tdi-stage-2-upgrade-clutch-kit
Currently getting fitted along with some new Bilstein B6's should be ready tomorrow fingers crossed.

Sounds expensive if you then have to get fitted, but best of luck mate, we can compare notes on updated clutches next week lol!?
