07 R56 Need Help - Clutch Problems
Need Help! Clutch is going out at 43K miles. I have never had a clutch go out on a car with only 43K miles. This is crazy. I want to keep the car forever. But I don't want to be replacing clutches every 40K miles.
I would like to have some opinions on clutch replacement alternatives. I was thinking of going stock but I don't want to replace another clutch at 80k miles. I would appreciate any advice or recommendations for replacements. I was looking at STR or OS Giken. Anybody have experience with these clutches. Also do I need to replace OEM limited slip with Giken Limited slip, if I go with Giken? I am not to concerned about the money. Just want to make sure its right. Will probably replace timing chain at the same time.
Thanks in advance for any help /recommendations. TKA
