Thank you for your video.

what happens if we miss the dsg oil change at 60k kms mark and do it at 85k ? I'm buying a used mk2 octavia 2012 but the owner has not done the dsg oil change at 60k interval. Please guide. Thanks

Awesome detailed videos my friend. I usually try do automotive work myself but this convinced me to take it to the mechanic for a new throw out bearing. One day I hope to have a car lift and a concrete floor to this stuff myself. Thanks for the great video

Keith Hanson says:

Awesome video! I’ll be doing this next weekend!

Great video.

Hey mate! So I'm putting on the flywheel, and I wanted to know is 44ft lbs the final torque? It feels way to loose to me haha.

PistnBroke says:

How did you stop the flywheel turning when you took the old bolts out? I have tried everything I can think of apart from buying a special tool…..issue is, my transmission is out of the car lol

Thank you for this video, you are one of, if not, the most experienced teacher and mechanic. I will be doing this myself soon.

is there a link ot part 1?

Annie Socci says:

flywheel and clutch assembly installed. We noticed that the throwout bearing slave cylinder replacement that we bought is the same as the original except for a plastic interface that would have made contact with the pressure plate on the original is not present on the replacement (the replacement lacks this piece and is just a metal surface). Can this plastic piece be omitted? We probably know the answer.

Annie Socci says:

Transmission is out. Most difficult part was removing it from the motor. We almost removed the lower a arm on the driver side, but we got it. After removing it we noticed that the clutch, flywheel, and slave are all Luk brand parts. Does that mean that they have already been replaced, because they would be OEM if they were original, correct? The car has about 80 k on it. We bought it with 60k on it from a dealer after just having the emissions recall work completed on it. The reason for the work that we are doing was a failed slave cylinder, brake fluid leaking from the bell housing being our main indicator. Before we replace the flywheel, clutch assembly, and slave with another Luk, we wanted to make sure that there isn't anything else that you would recommend doing, knowing possibly that they may have already been replaced and possibly failed for a second time. We were not planning on replacing the master cylinder. We were considering trying to remove as much of the old brake fluid as possible. Any advice here would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Annie Socci says:

My 2013 jetta tdi wagon had a floppy clutch pedal when I went to start it recently. My husband identified fluid dripping from the bell housing. That combined with some research lead us to think that the problem is the slave cylinder. While we are working on this we figured we should probably replace the clutch and dual mass flywheel while we have the transmission removed so that ideally we do not have to access these parts again. Do you agree? The clutch and flywheel are currently functioning properly, but we would replace preventatively. We would get the clutch assembly from Luk which includes the slave cylinder. I have seen multiple conversion kits available to go from a dual mass to a single. Your advice here would be appreciated. We are not sure if converting to a single is advantageous or not. Also, what brand of flywheel to buy if we convert to a single or not?

The two part videos that you have shared here are very well done. My husband and I think that we can do this job on our car because of how detailed and thorough your videos are on the process of completing this job. Thank you for sharing this information.

Annie Socci says:

Slave cylinder also?

Annie Socci says:

do you have a brand of clutch assembly that you recommend?

Clive Baldy says:
