If you have a trade account you can buy the whole kit for around £450 including tax from Sachs UK in Rugby

And yes they also stock the 4200 clutch parts too

The mark up some companies charge is unreal.....

Do they do 4200 clutches too?

Its on 74% but is good, no issues so do I replace it or do I leave it till it fails?

What I might do is buy the clutch and when I sell the car next Spring, bung it in as part of the deal, I think thats fair.

 

[Parisien]

74% sounds way too precise......................its always hard to say.........will get mine read on Friday......see what Marios says

If it was slipping I would change it but its not, it pulls like a train.

 

[Parisien]

If it was slipping, would that cause damage to the flywheel or are the two un-related?

[conaero]

Not really bothered as I expecting to replace that too. It's £220 from memory.

The 3200 clutch will last qiute a long time without slipping, maybe up to 40k...but when the pressure plate starts wearing the clutch starts to feel very wooden and heavy.... theres no nice light over centre feeling when you push the clutch pedel down

A worn clutch will also give the crankshaft thrust washers an even harder time and we dont want that do we..

Anyone knows the Sachs p/n for the 4200 clutch kit? this could save us a lot of money.

Anyone enquired with these guys http://www.maddogclutches.co.uk/ ?

Looks like they do Ferrari F1 clutches, which Ferrari is the 4200 CC clutch equivalent to? See if they do it.

 

[hodroyd]

They do the 3200: http://www.sachsperformance.com/Sac...-kW-;-10/1998-03/2002:::2_2651_2660_2661.html

Can't see the 4200..??

 

[NickP]

Not cheap though Robert thats like £900!

The 4200 clutch is made by Valeo, not Sachs.

From my experience, the bearing ears will sheer off before the clutch wears out, happened to me on the school run.
