you can get flywheel chatter on 6 speed boxes with solid fly/w, never heard chatter noise on a solid 5 speed with solid fly/wKennyPOLO_Gti wrote:Has anyone done this mod??? Looking at a few reviews on this and get mixed opinions. Heard the lightend flywheel rattles a bit??
if you go big power you have almost got to go solid flywheel and ditch the dual mass

Re: VR6 Clutch & G60 Flywheel
I have a single mass lightened flywheel, yes you do get a little chatter but from memory only in neutral and clutch disengaged so its not that much of an issue and not that loud. that combined with a aftermarket clutch kit i went from putting out 114kw atw on a dyno (the stock clutch was stuffed when they changed my gearbox under warranty) with Custom Code to 131kw atw.
I bought the clutch assembly second hand from my Custom Code dealer so i will try and find out exactly what it is.

Re: VR6 Clutch & G60 Flywheel
Dont think a would like the chattering tbh, so i wouldnt bother lightening the flywheel as a lot of ppl do. It is still a lot lighter than the current set up anyway on the 1.8T and its meant to make a bit of a difference. Not plannin on doing it anytime soon as Milltek will be 1st once they release it! Feels like it been frickin ages waitin on it!!!!!!

I thought it was actually cause its single mass that makes it chatter not so much the lightening of it, although i could be wrong. And honestly you barely notice it.
