Polo GTI Clutch?
My Polo gti is nearly at 20k and I noticed the revs pick up but not power so I decided the clutch is slipping what are my options I'm a mechanic by trade so fitting doesn't fuss me but 300-600 quid of parts does what are my options what clutches are good and worth there money my polo is mapped stage 2 so needs too be able too handle some power thanks

Interesting as my clutch starting slipping around 25k.
What's more interesting is that no one seems to be able to identify what the original clutch is.

Re: Polo GTI Clutch?
still not had a clutch fitted as I've been spending my time looking how to improve fueling.
the sachs organic upgrade is supposed to be a little heavier but not by a lot.
Re: Polo GTI Clutch?
