Cupra Clutch change?!?!

[Mat]

[PhilW]

Info on the flywheel and engine code sizes are in the FAQ thread. Dont be fooled if you think theyre the same for both engine codes Mat.

 

[PhilW]

ha ha, give me time

cheers fella

edit: 5mm difference between clutch plates

 

[Ricardo_Smooth]

yes i've seen that too, but again surely this is when replacing like for like, not g60/vr6 clutch combo???

 

[Mat]

I'm kinda hoping the same. The guy has confirmed it'll fit.

might email him the above post............

bloody car modifications! so darn confusing at time

 

[Ricardo_Smooth]

yeah true, but as we've said i'd be surprised if it doesn't fit.

 

[PhilW]

If your goin vr6 then you need to get the ABF/g60 flywheel.

Im not sure what your trying to do sorry. lol.

thats what he's doing mate, ditching the crappy duel mass!!!!

 

[Mat]

just trying to find out if the kit ricardo smooth posted will fit or not

 

[Mat]

what is confusing me is that the post Phil posted a thread to mentioned clutch plate size is 220mm or 225mm (depending on engine code). Mine appears to be 225mm according to that post.

However, in this thread, it mentions 228mm will fit (VR6). So I assume a bigger clutch/plate/whatever it is, is ok. But what about smaller?

The guy mumbled 220 on the phone. And also said it WILL fit mine

 

[SEATCOOBER]

right so let me get this straight the ebay link is for a g60 fly which is normally 10kg and vr6 clutch kit combo????

 

[PhilW]

You do know you could probably get it cheaper than from Trade Parts Specialists?

Fly - 037 105 273 A
Cover - 021 141 025 FX
Friction - 021 141 031 CX
Bearing - 02A 141 165 A


They are the vr6 clutch and flywheel numbers apparently.

 

[Mat]

trade parts specialst? Such as? (GSF? ECP?)

got a quote from a scrappy of £88 for a s2nd hand G60 flywheel

 

[Ricardo_Smooth]

the 220 will originate to the original clutch and fly combo mate.

 

[PhilW]

Nah, TPS supply the dealers with parts.

And FYI, a g60 flywheel is 88 quid plus 30 quid exchange if you dont give in your old flywheel. So 88 quid for a second hand one is a rip off.

 

[Mat]

I know. When I saw their price, i was thinking "bet you rang autoworld etc for new price", just no surcharge!



So do you both think it should/will fit?

 

[ian_cupra]

just get a 6 paddle helix clutch and a single mass flywheel, lightened and balanced

 

[PhilW]

To answer your question...

This
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SEAT-IBIZA-CO...9|66:2|65:12|39:1|240:1318|301:1|293:1|294:50

Will fit.

Regardless to what engine code you have as it comes with the flywheel and the flywheel mounting dimensions are the same for both AQX and AYP.

 

[Mat]

for silly money i guess?

Kinda like JBS's quote at about £636 +VAT IIRC
