Clutch change

Post by passat-pd130 »

So done the clutch and DMF also whilst in there done the crank position sensor, also done the oil pump drive hex and replaced the plastic gear selector arm as it was well worn had a fair bit of side to side slop on the gear stick, the car has had a clutch and flywheel about 70k ago and by the looks of the bell housing it was a bad one it’s rubbed away significantly, all back together and must say the gears feel so much better and much quieter when starting and stopping the engine, the gearboxes rattle a bit more than the B5.5 but I can live with that,

The other thing that I had to replace was the battery main positive cable as it had chafed almost half way through on the other wire on the starter weird thing is the other cable has no damage
