    Cluch slip, damn expencive.

    my cluch is slipping a little bit, so i got a quote from bursons, $752.82!
    Damn! Can anyone hook me up with a more cost effective one? (cheaper)
    Also, is there any special tools invloved in doing a VR6 clutch? Does the motor have to come out or can it stay in?

    give imparts a call and see what they charge. They have been surprisingly cheap on a few things.

    I brought a Sachs kit in December 2004, not sure if they are cheaper or more expensive now.
    It cost me $440 From Euro Car Parts

    My Clutch started slipping today too

    Golf Loon, what price can you do for a clutch kit, machined flywheel and a timing chain kit with the guides?
