Remapped 280 Clutch Slipping Help.

[GrahamFR]

I was going to suggest the sachs clutch as above, it was the one i looked at when my clutch was slipping but that seems to have magically fixed itself now, should get change from a grand with fitting.

Cant seem to find any others

Will these clutches be okay which 1 should I order am really unsure?

Organic one is the one you will want unless you want it to be hard to drive in traffic then get the paddle one.

The guy you will be needing to speak to is Will. He's the owner hes also got a Stage3 Golf MK7 R which is manual with an uprated clutch.

I replaced the organic one as it was slipping with the sintered paddle.
Couldn't be easier to drive. Haven't stalled it once and I'm stuck in motorway queues daily.
Really is recommended. This is for the sachs version anyway. I already had the uprated cover.

Some people struggle with them, I loved the hard pedal and biteness of them.

got DSG now though.

I know its leon section but browsing and thought this would help,
Thats what aere all here for innit?
Had same problem with my ibiza mk3 cupraR

Speak to badger 5
Bill ordered me a SPEC clutch.
Can take up to 600lb/ft
This is Top Quality stuff from the USA
Mines got a single mass g60 flywheel.
Expensive, but now i can drive the car as i want, and no slip when water/meth kicks in

hello, I have the same problem as you, take Stage 2 APR 380hp and 560 nm and sometimes slipping the clutch. he changed the clutch? that clutch put him?

Go to golfmk7.com and read up on the clutches. Anything above stage 1 and the clutch will eventually start slip. Once it have start slipping you better change asap. Otherwise youll have to change the flywheel aswell..

With the Mk7 R it seems you don't have to be beyond stage 1 for the clutch to go. Cars running tuning boxes have went as well as a few standard cars reported on VWROC and pistonheads. The clutch on the manual is just dangerously close to it's limit with standard power if you ask me. It was a contributing factor in my decision to go DSG this time.

Dsg can slip aswell.. mine slipped with jb1 and dp. With tcu software and stage2 tune it's now ok.

 

[Jonyct]

okay! then I have to change clutch disc. where to buy it ?? if for golf r7 there for our tmb. I spend some link where you can buy it. Thank yo

 

[Raven]

Apparently the rs3 clutch can work. The flywheel will as I understood to be slightly adjusted (bigger holes). Check out the golfmk7 forum. Lots of discussions regarding clutches.
