VALEO 52255602 clutch flywheel conversion kit for the 1999-2005 Volkswagen Jetta 4-cylinder 1.8L and other vehicles replaces the dual mass flywheel (DMF) with a solid flywheel.
A clutch that slips or shudders, or a rattle from the flywheel area, can mean the clutch or the dual mass flywheel is worn. Before you replace the clutch and flywheel, rule out a hydraulic fault or an oil leak onto the disc, since either can also make a clutch slip or drag; a shop can test the hydraulics. Each engine takes one kit.
This solid-flywheel conversion kit also fits the 1999-2006 Volkswagen Golf 4-cylinder 1.9L, the 2001-2006 Golf 4-cylinder 1.8L and the 2005-2008 Seat Ibiza 4-cylinder 1.8L. Open the "Vehicles it fits" section to check your exact model and engine.
