    try it then come back and you tell us.

    you might want to find one for a B6 not a B5 if you are going to try it.

    I got a Valeo clutch assembly with flywheel for $350 from Ebay. Valeo is actually an OEM clutch on many cars, so the quality is good

    I am not sure about lightweight, but its a single flywheel (stock is a double). I cant remember the seller I bought it from (was almost a year ago), something like this http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/VALEO...Q5fAccessories

    Lol flywheels... one reason I didn't buy the first a4 I wanted. 75k an the clutch was being replaced for the 3rd time according to the nearest dealership. I test drove it an it shit the bed an they towed it. Then they put a new clutch in an I asked to see the clutch an flywheel. They handed me the clutch an I was like, you used that beat ass flywheel? Took my $2000 deposit an walked.

    Well what happened is that the car went through 3 clutches on one stock flywheel... I'm not into paying retail for a beat ass car at a dealership.

    that's some interesting logic. I suppose if all 78,000+ feedback points were because of that one product, then yeah, the product could be good.

    Why? Please shed some light on this for us.

    Many of us are running 228mm SM flywheels with no issues..

    I ran valeo SMF clutch kit on my 71R eliminator with zero problems, actually when I pulled the clutch and flywheel off for my build, it still looks new.
