    New Clutch Bedding In

    Had the clutch done 2 weeks ago on my S6, ever since then i get a whiff of burning clutch, especially after a hard run, it's not slipping and it's not juddering, any ideas if this normal and it requires a breakin period like new brake pads do???? Clutch was genuine audi 3 part kit.

    Drove mine like I stole it from the word go, there was a slight smell the first time I used it but nothing since then.

    On the uprated Specs clutch's I sell they advise you bed them in for the first 200 miles.

    What was the condition of the flywheel surface?

      I don't know the condition of the flywheel surface as i didn't do the job myself, the guy who did do it is probably the best audi technician i have ever come accross i am sure he wouldn't have fitted it if the flywheel was toast, the old clutch i did see the plate was worn but not down to the rivets, the release bearing shagged.

        Hey guys,

        new clutch + everything connected with it just been fitted. the 450bhp one from clutch masters . net. Should it judder when taking off? I been told its normal as it digs in so hard but I find it hard to belive. Im told to just fully release it when i want to move the car.. Im sure wheelspinning up a drive in reverise is a no no.

        ur thoughts?

          Guys,

          Is it true that if u fit the 450bhp clutch + pressure plate onto a 3b lightened flywheel then it will judder when you ride the clutch or try to pull away slowly because the clutch grips so hard?
