A few months ago I bought a 2012 Jetta TDI 6 speed. It was one of the buyback cars. Had 108k when I got it. Up to 111k as of today. I searched on the forums and it sounds like the clutches normally go 200k+. My car is bone stock and today it started slipping.
Any input? How long can one limp these along for? I eventually planned on egr & dpf delete and probably the stage 2 Malone tune. I had planned on waiting another year to do that, but if one has to drop the sub frame and pull the trans to change the clutch maybe it’s a good time to do everything at once.
Looks like about $1200 for a decent clutch with SMF conversion. I would think that would outlast the car.
Any input on a good clutch to get or how you would go about this situation is appreciated. Also haven’t decided if I want to tackle it myself (also not sure where I could take it to that works on VW’s)
