Right lets tidy this up.
I wonder if Jonny's dsg clutch pack was showing any signs of needing a beef'd up version with all that torque??
Saint Steve was being mischievous.
I've heard off DSG clutch pack issues from 2 tuners with car's running big power.
1200USD seems more than reasonable but I assume there's labour to consider on top.
With that amount of power running through the drivetrain and the extra stress a diff brings to the clutch assembly for peace of mind I'd like to see an uprated clutch in there. You just never know when they will give up!
M Sportsman saw a chance and also jumped in.

Are you intentionally doing this??
doubt it he's already sold his car i think! And wasn't it a manual anyway? (not that i care really!)
Chungster only comes on every now and then so couldn't spot the dig from MR not so Sportsman.
as far as i know his ed 30 was/is DSG
^^ And Chungster was talking about M Sportsmans car not Jonny's.
There clear as mud.
Basically the outcome of all this is Jonny's ED 30 DSG box is working fine and has been looked after with no cost spared, which can be backed up by his visits to VWR for regular oil changes on the box.
If in the future the box needs uprated clutches then that would be for the new buyer to deal with, if it is working fine now then i cant see what more the lad can do.
So can people stop trying to put a spanner in someone's sale without any evidence backing up there thoughts.
