Ebay clutch

[Koomorph]

Have been looking at getting a new clutch but am loathed to pay Jabba £800 for a supplied and fitted Sachs solution.

Spotted these and was wondering if anyone has bought these for their Seat/Audi/VW....

They said they could supply in the 6 speed version for the AUQ engine....

But just wondering - as it seems it's a bargain - is it going to be a case of buy cheap, buy twice.... ?

Bit of a search for Techniclutch turned this up...

Sounds like it could well be one to avoid!

One of the guys has one on here on a tuned 150 tdi, not sure how he is getting on, does make you wonder how they can do it so cheap.

There was a thread about on SCN not that long ago. Personally i wouldn`t put that clutch in my car.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! dont stick that **** in your car, judging by some of the pictures at the bottom, them makes are absolute ****. Buy a tried and tested clutch made by a hugely known worldwide manufacturer like SACHS that you know has been tried and tested, and thousands spent of R&D and not some **** that the pied piper has knocked up in his graden shed over the weekend.

Thanks chaps - that settles that one !

Are there any other options in terms of performance clutch rather than the the Sachs one?

Yeah i saw mate, taking the piss really. He tried to post it on Briskoda on a group buy and had his post deleted by admin.

I might just go and buy a standard clutch and get that fitted - it's done well so far - just very over abused lately.

Hi mate, I only put that in there as there were a LOT of people wanting an uprated clutch which you couldn't deliver in the end. I know these people would be watching that thread, hence the post. You even clearly stated the GB wouldnt happen, so I thought I'd help the other guys out on the forum !!!

taking the piss really.

How the F*** am I taking the piss??? I posted the GB in the threads regarding clutches, hence this one. A load of people are asking about uprated clutches, and this GB would help them all ????

Plus, I was directed to the GB on Brioskoda, but the fitting was in Kent, I wasn't being a c*** in posting it, I posted it & explained that this one was nearer up North for the people who dont live in the South.
