what clutch do i need?

[cheddarcheese 0]

i just brought a corrado a month back the clutch failed last night and i have noticed the release bearing has been noisy for a few weeks.

 

 

i have a 1993 2.0l 16v with an 1.8 02a gear box with a 3 piece sachs clutch kit apparently what clutch kit do i need and from what model cars?

 

will a normal 1993 corrado 2.0 16v clutch work if i ordered the standard clutch from an auto parts shop?

 

cheers

Euro car parts do a 230mm sachs clutch kit fairly cheap for all 4 cylinder Corrados, got one a few weeks ago, although it's listed as 230mm it's a replacement for all 228mm clutches found on 1.8 and 2.0L boxes.

VW do specify slightly different part numbers for some of the 4cyl engines, but a generic 228mm clutch kit will do fine, just avoid the very cheapest brands on the market and try to get an LUK or sachs one as they are nearest to OEM.

Do the slave cylinder as well if it seems like its never been done, its not much cost to buy and it can all be done whilst gearbox is out.

or while the gearbox is in :) it's only 2 bolts on the top of the box.
