Haha, yeah, I have had one bad experience with them, but nothing quite on that level!

Fingers crossed it fits, and works
Will make sure it at least slides onto the gearbox splines at the weekend
Did it fit?
I´m in need of a new one for my 90 20V q and couldn´t find the correct part but this one is much cheaper and ready available!

Sorry for being too pessimistic probably, but all 240mm stock clutches for our cars have been out of production for a long time unfortunately.
There is no option to just go and buy simple stock flat flywheel clutch kit (7A/3B) off the shelf.
There are Sachs racing kits, single items from other audi clutch kits, tuning/rebuild options, used parts, audi tradition opportunities etc.
The closest affordable new off-the-shelf kit is audi A6 2.5 TDi AEL clutch.

OK, so here's a closer look, as I got the gearbox out on Sunday afternoon.... firstly the new cover, with the new plate:

As you can see, a small gap around the outside, slight intrusion around that bolt/pin hole.

Old plate, new cover, you can see the cover and plate are IDENTICAL in diameter. It is a shame about the small intrusions, otherwise I think it would probably take the larger disc under the smaller cover.
Otherwise, the new kit appears to fit fine, so if you need one, and can live with a 12mm downgrade, go for it.
From the parts I took off I found this part number on a quite burnt looking sticker:
1862 809 001
This is a SACHS part number, on a plate with an LUK stamp in it, are they the same company now? Sachs appears to be ZF, and LUK Schaeffer group, sigh, so hard to keep up. Probably all owned by autodoc by now.
Then you can cross-reference on Autodoc to: 324 0052 10, and you have to sit down for the price.
I've submitted an enquiry to a local place that reline the plate and can rebuild the cover, will see what sort of price they come back with, may be an option.
