Clutch slip
luca:
how much is the vwr clutch? mines been running stock map for the past month so havnt had any slip. put the map back on today and give the car a good run through the gears for most of the day and there was no slip. car has only done 10k so may start experiencing more slip as the car does more miles. nt sure whethep to run mine at pod now lol.

Matt : re-reading your original post

I dont understand! , normally clutch slip = rev flare not drop. care to eloborate?
Also does the cupra/S3 etc all run the same clutch as the edition30?
Interesting as std S3 is 258lbft ,and 4wd can be much harder on the clutch.
Tried a search but i was unable to find the manual clutch rating.
Now you have me worried as my torque peaks at 368lb/ft which is nearly 500Nm :surprised: at the worst point in the range (from a clutch point of view)
great feel in the car but its gonna test my clutch! arghhhh damn you matt :grin:
typically as well clutches dont 'recover' once they have started slipping, it normally just gets worse at an exponential rate in my experience. But maybe the newer clutches are different ? dunno

I did'nt want to read this, but curiosity got the better of me. My Revo maps been fine, and to be honest i haven't heard much of the clutch slip issue on ED30's so I'm gonna carry on modding. My fingers are now in my ears, my eyes are closed and im going bluh bluh bluh repeatedly to shut out all this clutch slip chat..........
MAT ED30:
I have done about 15k on the map and most of it on the mtr way it just can't handle the torque LOL
