well about 11months ago now i started a topic about how i had been to santa pod for the vw "big bang" show and got my 2.5 10v to a 16.7....although that eventually lead to the clutch failing.. near a year on and the excitment building again for the same show(but with more poke under the bonnet) i only just managed to remove the old clutch from my 10v engine and this is what i found in the gearbox... nothing else but dust:
i think i mayy have killed it a little????

Thanked 2,582 Times in 2,051 PostsNice, looks like mine did (but without the broken bit and mine hasn't got any springs in it) when mine failed last year. In the end, I had no drive at all, the clutch was just slipping constantly and it took a couple of minutes at 3-4k rpm just to get up my driveway before I stripped it down.
