Is this the right Sachs clutch?
« on: November 08, 2012, 09:30:07 pm »
Havent had my Revo/ clutch killer map for that long and today experienced a bit of clutch slip when pressing on along the motorway. I half expected this to happen as did a few other people lol :grin: I am thinking of upgrading to the Sachs clutch and DMF but have no idea on the bits I need. I came across this on ebay, seems like a good price. It says it contains everything needed for the upgrade- can anyone confirm this? Any other help or pointers appreciated as I am not mechanically gifted whatsoever. :rolleye:

Romany - I'd google techniclutch before you buy from them  :sick:

The phrase "too good to be true" springs to mind.

Have you considered a single mass mate? I had the LOBA setup in my S3 and it was awesome. A bit more money but peace of mind in that you know it can handle it.
