Brocade 2.0 16v

First problem haha, killed clutch last week and started burning and now it slips in 5th n 6th when torque is highest.. So need to replace clutch now and it's also got a dual-mass flywheel too so that will need doing so about £500 in parts

[PRICER]

Stick a lightened flywheel on it instead.

[vcorsab]

Ouch, treat the parts as the cars life aha

[Jamie1991]

Heard they run rough on lightend flywheels so guna stick to the dual mass one

[Jamie1991]

Not much happened to the vxr lately, all I've done is fitted a pre-cat decat pipe, getting a few pops n bangs now from the exhaust since fitted, sounds nice! Next plan is to buy the dual mass flywheel and clutch at weekend, on sale atm, reduced from £550 to £450 so will get that and fit when I have time, then can get my remap

[vcorsab]

Plans sound good mate !

[Jamie1991]

Yep, just ordered flywheel, clutch and slave cylinder.. Got the lot for £397 so even more saved haha, just need to get new gearbox oil and other bits n bobs then fit it all then ill have power back without the clutch slipping

[PRICER]

haha fair play

[Jamie1991]

Well latest news is I now need new gearbox bearing.. Very common issue on all vauxhalls that use the m32 box.. So another £400 down now plan is do remove box next Sunday, fit my clutch and flywheel and Wednesday Ill be taking my box down to a place in Kent for repair then can put box back on n car back together and fingers crossed I have no more problems then as its skinting me out...
