Clutch Slip

Featured Replies

My clutch started slipping today so i'm now on the hunt for reccomendations

It's gonna be a helix clutch but i'm gonna convert from DMF to SMF so that i don't have the issue anymore

What SMF do i need for the job?

jabba do one - you cant just use a VR6 one like you can on the 1.8T - you have to go custom!

I bought my whole kit for about £900

These things are never cheap fella. Hope you've got plenty in your savings!!!! ;)

Got nothing in my savings :( Got no Money at all! And I'm on rubbish wages, in a rubbish job that offers me no prospects!

Sorry, my life right now is nothing but a mess and I'm on the verge of giving up :(

Come on fella, chin up. Things are never as bad as they seem and there is always a light at the end of every tunnel. :)

I know but things are going from bad to worse for me right now :(

Between this and splitting up with my mrs yesterday i'm on a major downer

When I had my clutch done I was told that my DMF was on the verge of failing - hence the slippage. but the clutch itself still seemed to have a bit of meat left on it & I may have another DMF (not my knackered one!) kicking about that you can have??

I'll have to go upto my parents place tomorrow and try and find it, but your welcome to it if you want??

this may sound like a daft question but how do you know when the clutch is starting to slip?

basicly, Put ur foot down, the rev's go up but the speed doesn't increase much.

I spoke to my work today and they won't replace the clutch under warranty due to it slipping, had it happened 3 months ago they woulda done it as their wasn't as many warranty audits as their is now

I did get told however if the DMF fails then the clutch would get replaced as part of it

Polo1600i - How much for the DMF mate?

I bought it to replace my knackered one - bought from Steven VW auto salavage place for £65. make me an offer!
