Last week I put a blacksmoke remap on my b5.5 and now the turbo whistles more than it did and the clutch gets really hot and smells of burning when I drive it, I'm not that concerned but I wondered if anyone else had experienced this? The car has done 190,000 and I don't know if and when the clutch has been replaced, I knew before the remap it needs changing as the bite point is really high but now with the extra power I'm a bit worried. It doesn't slip much in any gear, only slightly when climbing a hill from standstill etc
I'll need to change the clutch soon anyway and I was considering a single flywheel conversion but unfortunately I'm too poor to afford it, so like a plank I'm considering just changing the clutch as I saw a sachs one on ebay for around £105 and the flywheel feels ok, no pedal judder or noise. I wish I could find out if the DMF has ever been changed
