Title: southbend clutch Q ?
Post by: Dario on March 12, 2012, 09:24:51 pm

So will be ordering this kit

http://www.darksidedevelopments.co.uk/products/southbend-silent-single-mass-flywheel-clutch-kit-for-vw-02m-6-speed-tdi.html

as I am aware that the GTI uses the 02Q gearbox ,but this is the same kit ,but only 02M

would there be problems ?

curently running an Helix SMF kit ,but rattles like hell ,so wont to remove that rattle ,and on the helix box its marked O2M,just like this kit from darkside for the TDI

so can I order this kit without problems?

Thx  :pomppomp:

Just seen this thread and the kit you're after can be got alot cheaper from this crowd

The link is for the TSI but they do have the silent kit for the tfsi also.  :happy2:

I've had mine fitted for the last two weeks and can confirm there is no chatter, pedal feel is far better then stock and bites alot lower down on the pedal  :drinking:

I saved nearly €300 getting direct from the states
