so i won a clutch on ebay 2 mintues ago and big idiot that i am i check after on the spec website for the part #.

i have a 2000 and on the spec website the part # is sv492-2, for the 99.5 its sv942 only. i bought the 99.5, now i know that they have luk clutchs and i dont. can i still run this spec or im screwed?

??

the car was built in 03/00, is there a way to check without taking out the tranny if i have a luk or not?

my bad.... if you have a dual mass flywheel then your clutch is different..grab a early tdi or a g60 flywheel and 228mm..when i had my 2001 i used a older g60 flywheel when i upgraded the clutch to a vr6 clutch.... I believe the early tdi with luk cluthc used teh 228 flywheel like a g60 and vr6
later

wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww are u positive of what ur saying cuz i feal like kissing u right now. i did want to run a g60 wheel but the deal on this thing was to good. if i can still use the g60 flywheel it would be perfect

mummn from what you said above it looks like the luk style clutch you bought will fit your extra g60 flywheel..i would try yo confirm some how though before i unbolted my tranny

Thanks
