hi guys

so im going to need a new clutch, been getting a squeel from it occasionally when moving off.

i was wondering whether i should get an oem or an aftermarket one as im remapped and if an oem one is going to cost more than a performance one then i may as well upgrade right?

any suggestions welcome and reviews of what you guys use

how much was that and which one ?
does it feel similar to the oem clutch or is it heavier or anything?

Well I had mind changed through warranty I had the se problem as your self and I just paid the extra for the upgrade so only cost me £350, if you search 2.0tsi Sachs performance clutch in Google and it's the top one on there website for the 2.0tsi and it was very heavy to start off with but get lighter aafter it beded in, ideal for daily driver ,plenty of feel and makes gear changes quicker.

ah ok well i spoke to the garage i have my warranty with yesterday, i was expecting them to say that the clutch isnt covered in the warranty but they didnt mention that it wasnt covered so if they are going to change it for nothing ill just get it done cause i cant bare the noise anymore it is really doing my head in the noise makes my skin crawl :grumpy:
