AAN flywheel choice

[sebwout]

Hi All!

My original DMF on my AAN is quite worn out.
Lots of play in it...

I would like to stay original, but an OEM flywheel at Audi Tradition is 2.000€!

Any other cheaper solution? or go to a single mass flywheel?

Thanks for your input!

Don't go single mass, you'll hear the gearbox inside the car, very annoying ( unless your exhaust is really loud and even then..)

Thanks for confirming this.
But is there any other option in DMF than the OEM 2.000€ flywheel?
Any aftermarket ones?
I could not find any...

Interesting, mine (S2) is a SMF lightened and balanced and it’s fine for noise. It does let the rpm drop close to stall when warming up, which can be a bit disconcerting until you’ve got used to it….

I found this to be true when i installed a lightened 7A flywheel into my S6. I thought it was the used 6-speed that I installed at the same time. Replaced the 6-speed with the original 5-speed with the same result. The louder Stromung exhaust only added to the cacophony of sounds at idle. Reinstalled the 6-speed and rolled on.
