The guy that fitted the clutch has been a mechanic for 30 years and has changed plenty of Honda clutch and flywheels. I have heard about that special tool thingy before but I'm fairly sure he knows about it too if I've been hearing about it for the last 10 years. The thing is, the clutch was...

Thanks for the replies... I don't want to go back to the tuner again, I've been back to him 3 times already since he first mapped the car with engine management lights and clutch slip problems. He lives out the back @rse of nowhere and not only is it a problem finding his place, but its a...

Got the tuner to re-tune the car... still slipping when full throttle. Have to keep it below 3k revs from now on unless I want to change the parts again. I wouldn't mind if it was just the clutch, but the tuner reckons the flywheel is done (not sure how he knows this) Not sure who to blame, the...

Hi, I just bought a mk8 2.2 i-DTEC (150) two weeks ago and so far I would say that my mk7 is a better car. I had the mk7 (i-CDTi sport) for 2 years, and although I had to change the clutch and flywheel, I never had any other issues with it. Pros for mk7: -Seems to have more pulling power even...
