Hi
Don’t know if am posting in the right section but am sure someone will guide me on where it should be...
My MK5 GOLF TDI 1.9 Clutch and flywheel will need replacing in the very near future as it starts to judder after a long drive.
Need some advice on where to buy my parts from and any advice you guys may have for me on manufactures etc??
Thanks in advance

Replaced the clutch and DMF on my 2.0 tdi yesterday. I bought the parts from a SEAT dealer who does mail order.
I did a lot of ringing about/searching online and got it at a very competitive price from David@SERE Motors in Belfast - happy I got a genuine VAG kit derived from my VIN with new flywheel bolts etc for a tad more than the cheapest eBay seller, but peace of mind included.
Seeing as you're new and can't PM, here is a way to contact him if you want a quote - http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=249
Kit I got was Sachs, same as what came out. Problem being if you start mixing and matching brands they won't be compatible with each other. As far as I know, you'll have either LUK or Sachs so you'll ideally want to buy a complete set together as opposed to a clutch from here, flywheel from there.
Not sure if you've got any prices yet but they are not cheap!!
