Title: non genuine flywheel
Post by: heady2010 on March 23, 2012, 08:56:03 pm
Anyone had any experience with a non genuine (unsure of make) dual mass flywheel for a gti? Had a price today for dmf, clutch kit and slave for £400 as opposed to geniune bits at £900.
cheers

well to be honest mate I hvn't fitted them yet only got them 1 week ago, I asked Midland VW and they quoted me £400 like yours from GSF which is LUK
but I managed to get the lot for £370 from I think its click4carparts on ebay, im not sure on the boxing/conditon of them though as I hvnt seen a clutch/dmf in the flesh before
