I had to do the clutch on my mr2 twice and that motorcycle jack holds the transmission just perfect since they have that odd shape.

@WMCS4 жыл бұрын
Colin for VAG engines I will always go for LUK it’s more expensive than SACHS., Reason being *LUK’s pressure plate has an automatic adjuster built in between the contact surface and fingers .,, *LUK’s pressure has designed a vent system in the plate cover to allow maximum airflow to keep the friction plate cool., Sachs hasn’t got the extra features which in my opinion *causes the clutch system to heat up and as a result damages the thin spacers in the flywheel., *on very long journeys the pressure plate springs becomes rigid which makes the clutch pedal feels hard. A lot more pressure on the slave cylinder. For a Non DMF I will always go for Sachs as the flywheel design allows air to flow freely through the cut outs .,, What I’ve found over years clutch wears 50% Quicker due to lack of air flow .,
