Hi guys,
So went APR Stage 1 last week after utilising their 20% off summer sale. Car is a pocket rocket now! Very happy with tune but of course..
Clutch slipped in the high output tune (as expected) so tuner kindly flashed to low output instead but still slipping quite a bit between gears 2nd-6th.
Definitely disappointed with the stock clutch as I thought it would've been improved since the previous generation (Should've went DSG ) Anyway, planning to get the Sachs SRE clutch upgrade however as I currently have 15K miles on the clock, would it be sensible to have the flywheel replaced? Only smoked the clutch briefly once when stock but haven't since even on tune as don't wanna cause anymore damage.
Since I baby the car I think the flywheel is still in top notch condition but who knows until we take it out...
I'm planning to purchase the clutch from awesome gti however can anyone tell me where I could get a new clutch release throwout bearing/slave cylinder based in the UK?
Cheers!
