Vw Mk1 2l 8v

Post by zacharyM »

I recently replayed my clutch kit on my golf.
I had the lightened flywheel skimmed and when I put the clutch back together, the clutch is slipping. It's the first time I had the flywheel skimmed.
What could the problem be?

Did you replace your clutch kit with the 1800 one? if not then that's your issue, the 1800 kit uses 210ml and your flywheel needs to be 210ml, if you are using the 1.6 kit it will slip

The clutch is all the same, I mocked it up with old one. The only thing that I did differently was that I got the flywheel skimmed. I think maybe it was skimmed under spec and isn't clamping properly
