Re: Clutch replacement

I ordered a brand new dmf and clutch kit from Euro car parts made my Sachs. It said its 365 day return so if it's the wrong one I can just return it. Wasn't cheap though:(

Re: Clutch replacement

Anyone done one themselves before? I assume the subframe needs to come out? Roughly how many hours work is required?

Re: Clutch replacement

All friction plates have springs? DO NOT go down the road off SMF flywheels on a diesel you will wreck your gearbox the DMF's job is to take the torque and the vibration out the engine when the engine is idling and on take off. I don't know your mileage but I suspect you are over 100k anyway if nee...

Re: B6 wide arches

Some countries seem to go for that sort of stuff. See Wayne Carini's Chasing Classic Cars and there's some beautiful lines of '40s, '50s, and '60s spoilt by garish multi-color paint jobs. What's wrong with quiet lines of that period in one quiet colour? Exudes class IMO you are right about classics...

Re: B6 wide arches

Indywindy had some bigger arches on his B6. They were replacement wings I believe. The rear would have to be custom by a good bodyshop. R36 arch extensions as standard, but they just stick onto the original panels so don't give any extra room. They also are not very obvious and you'd need to do bum...

Re: B6 wide arches
