I would like to know how much wear can be on the clutch material before i need to replace it because i bought a new tranny and have no idea if my clutch needs replaced or not. and was wondering what the thickness of the clutch when you buy it new and how much can be worn off before it needs replaced.

 

maybe auditech79 knows but i've yet to see a measurement for that. i know what you mean and there should be one out there but that question is like asking the specs of the headbolts lol. put up pix and some of the members might be able to tell. how does the pressure plate look?

 

Here's the wear spec for southbend clutches... You can use it as a general guideline for yours

 

thank you that is exactly what i needed and the pressure plates looks quite good actually.

 

but i do have another question: when it comes to take my old tranny off is there any special procedure i should follow? and if so please explain.

 

what i mean by is there any special procedure is my a4 is a quattro and i do not know if the tranny is more hard to get off because of that.
