136,000 miles.

If you end up keeping the car... I'd recommend the CP3 kit. 14,000 miles on mine so far. Running perfect. Thanks again Andrew for the quality kit!!

Four bikes? You're good. Haha [/IMG]

Glad your Sachs SRE hasn't popped your slave cylinder yet. My slave cylinder only lasted 20,100 miles running a Sachs SRE.

Are you happy with the results?

Yes, The Valeo says it can hold ~275 ft-lbs. So it's only for mildly tuned setups.

I no longer trust DMF's with tuned TDIs. When removing my Sachs SRE Performance Clutch due to a failed slave cylinder the Sachs DMF had way more play and clicked way more then it should of with only 20,100 miles on it. The DMF would chatter slightly at idle with clutch disengaged. The Valeo...

Just finished up replacing my failed clutch slave cylinder/release bearing. New clutch was installed too as the failed slave cylinder gets clutch fluid (i.e. brake fluid) onto the friction disk of the clutch...which destroys it.

VW has already said they won't be "ready" with their fixes on the 24th. http://jalopnik.com/volkswagen-probably-wont-meet-its-deadline-to-declare-a-1763054253

Haha....I'm right there with you! I just finished installing a new Valeo SMF Conversion clutch ($610) after my Slave Cylinder/Release Bearing failed.

I didn't install a fluidampr. The vibration noise I'm describing really isn't bad...but I could consider a Fluidampr just to see if it helps? I don't see a specific unit for the 2.0 TDI on fluidampr.com. Anyone know what p/n works on the 2.0 TDI?

20,100 miles ago, I installed a Sachs SRE Performance clutch with a brand new Sachs DMF. I also installed a new OEM slave cylinder/release bearing (no heavy duty slave cylinder/release bearings exist for the 02Q)...
