Mk IV Golf Clutch and Flywheel

[Ecurie Ecosse]

Hi Guys

My friend's Mk IV 1.9tdi Golf needs a new clutch and flywheel, and he has been quoted over £1k by the VW dealer fitted.

Do you know of any non-OEM parts which are a bit cheaper? He is also going to check out a specialist to get the labour down.

Many thanks!

pretty sure sachs do one, also try uk-mkivs.net for advice as you might be able to save some money converting to a single mass flywheel using one from a vr6 (assuming tdi is 5 speed)

try specialists lig AMD Technik or for parts GSF Carparts or Eurocarparts

TDI more likely to be 6 speed.

I'd expect around the 700quid mark froma specialist, where in the country is he?

Many thanks Guys. He is based in Dundee.

That's a very high quote - around what I was quoted by a dealer when my MK4 R32 needed a new clutch and flywheel back in 2006.

If it was me (and assuming it's just a 'normal' TDi), I would source the parts from GSF or Eurocarparts and then find a decent back street mechanic.

Alternatively, it might be worth a call to STAR Performance or Bedrock VWs to get a quote from them.
