Vr6 - Where are people buying clutches from?

[stevoooish]

Yes I was being a knob and I fried my clutch. Are people getting them from eBay or a shop like xtreeme clutch.

Im sure it was the clutch due to:

- full on clutch smell
- cant put it in any gear when engine is running.

Cheers

Could be broken clutch fork, so the clutch isn't moving. Even though the pedal feels normal. I'd probably just get one off ebay. The flywheel is probably ok. https://www.google.com.au/search?q=v...rk%3B800%3B600
Had this happen on a heavy clutch I had on an A3 a while back. Pedal was right at the bottom too.

I got mine from ecs, the sachs kit which seems good. Although i swear the price has doubled since i last ordered.

Wow insightful. I didn't even consider the clutch fork.

Symptoms
- only engaged once or twice while moving and in neutral over 10 mins.
- clutch is low to the floor but seems to work when engaged if started in gear.
- no gearbox noise.
- shifts fine when engine not running.
- virtually impossible to shift in gear.
- smelt like serious clutch although I had been thrashing it hard on a friends go kart track inc hard changes.

Yes I forgot my age

Yeah, I just ordered 1 from Camden GTI for $370 shipped to Melbourne ....Sachs brand.
Might aswell replace if you taking that gearbox out
