APR Stage 2+ Car, Sachs clutch SLIP OR WHEELSPIN?

(1/4) > >>

Tfsi_Mike:

Okay,

Some may have read I have recently had sachs sintered metal clutch disc and New OEM Dual mass flywheel.

Driving hard in 5th, or dropping 5th to 4th and powering, or 6th to 5th I occassionally get a short judder
and sometimes (once or twice so far) a sliiight quick rise in revs.
I was advised I didnt need the pressure plate, could the judder (please) be the tyre just trying to find grip?

Any stage2+ or higher power drivers experienced this and able to shed any light?  I cant afford to prmaturely
wear the new clutch or flywheel and well over a grand for the two fitted... :(

Thanks in advance

MAT ED30:
i take u have ragged it from day one? i have been gentle with mine and done track days on it with no probs at all, but i did put a new pressure plate on at the same time. Have u spoken to Mat at vwr about it?

MAT ED30:
they do take some time to bed in too so its best to be gentle for a few miles after fitting

Tfsi_Mike:

I see, done about 600 miles since fitting with an occasional drop of the gear and hard acceleration.  Wasn't really advised on it not being good to go without bedding in.  Should I be ok if I stick to the stock map for the next 1000miles and bed it in?

How long would it normally take??

MAT ED30:
they are good from day one mate but i would think its just wheel spin your having or crap tyres maybe and have u done this with tc on or off?
