Replacing Clutch

[dieselforlife]

Need to replace my clutch in my 2000 Jetta TDi, any suggestion on which one to put in?

Most will advise you to scrap the Dual Mass Flywheel and just get a G60/VR-6 setup from either Sachs (my preferred choice) or Valeo...

See which one of the usual suspects happens to have the better deal this week... (metalmanparts boraparts idparts dieselgeek and one or two of the other popular online vendors...)

Just read through every procedure you can find out there on the internet... the one on this site's excellent...

Good luck,

Yuri

It depends it you want to modify it or not.

How do you drive, normal or like to boot it up some.

Modifying has it advantages and disadvantages too.

Keeping the DMF will make the engine smoother at low RPMs.

One local shop here suggest replacing the DMF every other clutch change. A clutch can go 250k+ miles if driven with respect.
