Just go into general traffic after work and get a price. Im pretty sure with the dual mass you have to buy the lot.

I need a dual mass flywheel and a clutch, they come seperate

Ive been offered a clutch on Fiatforum, its a "performance clutch for grande 1.9 JTDM"

rated at 200bhp

but its made by a company called "clutch and gearbox LTD"

anyone heard of them?

No conversion kit availible yet, nothing wrong with the fly wheel I can tell of, drives normal, just slips under load, do you HAVE to change the Dual Mass when doing a clutch or can you keep the old one

and that eBay link is a dreamer, Fiat RRP is £329 Ive found one on the net for £270

Why are you changing the flywheel? No real need too unless its knocking or rattling.. if its just clutch slip then chuck a better clutch in and leave the flywheel.

Torque killed your clutch?

Alot of VAG PD130 maps dont go above 280 lb ft as thats all the std clutch can handle

wont need to change the flywheel unless you feel it juddering when you put your foot on the clutch or if it moves more than 6 teeth then its goosed...

Urgh listen to him.

He knows the map has killed the clutch, he wants an uprated one - asking for recommendations.

He knows he has a dual mass flywheel, he is asking if he needs to change it or not.

My experience with changing from a double to a single is the amount of noise you get a idle
