Used dual mass flywheel

[Bustin]

I’m replacing my transmission and I’m looking to replace the flywheel and clutch while doing so since my car has 101,000 miles. However the cost of a new flywheel is outrageous. Would this used one I found be usable? It has 25,000 miles on it

Hard to say from the photo, depends on how much the second mass deflects rotationally and in/out of the plane. IIRC there are specific tolerance numbers.

I’d say borderline but probably usable. A couple tiny burn spots but not terrible. As long as it’s still got a flat surface it’s probably usable.

Are you looking at purchasing this used flywheel? Verify with the seller that the flywheel was removed from a car with a functioning (not slipping) clutch. If the car was fine at 25k miles (ie, it’s from a wrecked car) it’s probably fine, but if it was removed specifically for replacement of a slipping clutch, I’d be worried (especially if the clutch was burned out and replaced after only 25k!)

Rock auto has an aftermarket OEM replacement for a pretty affordable price.

Platinum Driveline FW727.
The catalog on their website has the same part number for the n/a and turbo 1.6l. Is that correct?

No* The non ST has a Ib5 5 spd Transmission. The ST has an Ib6 6 spd Trans. The Slave cyl they show is for a 5 spd*

Necroing this - for a normal clutch replacement at 43k miles, is the DMF necessary to replace?

Does the OEM kit off Whoosh work for a simple clutch replacement?

Need to inspect for wear...But @ 43k it should be fine unless you use it as a 1/4 mile drag car. Post pictures after its out.
