Damn that sucks. Thats why you should never make your daily driver a race car.

Yeah I'm pretty sure the guy wasn't kidding when he titled the thread "so my friend killed his clutch." Just a guess.

[DBCPerformance]

he needs to learn how to drive standard.

[zerogt86]

Was he riding his clutch all the time? How many miles were on his car?

[MKV6SPD]

7k miles on the odo

no shit man... how the fawk... id hate to see this happen to the DSG clutches, tlak abou tan expensive fix.

but seriously, youd have to REALLY be riding it hard, dumping the clutch on take of some shit. ive seen some bad clutches but that damn thing is BROKEN. ewww.

if i remember correctly there was another guy that had about 1k miles and had a clutch fry on him too.

i hope he understands why it went out on him... and not ask "how could this happen"

[zerogt86]

this should be a good reminder to everybody then, dont ride that clutch!

[RJS5689]

As far as a bed smell, when a clutch is BREAKING in IE... 200 or so miles, isnt a SLIGHT smell normal?

[Rabbit GTI]

yowzers

[KaynE]

If he's riding it that hard, why did he not just upgrade to a better clutch?

"if it aint broke, dont fix it."

LOTS of hate for the Mk 5 on that board...

[MKV6SPD]

He is getting a stage 1 clutch in 2 weeks when it is aval. for sale.

There's some diabolical hate for MKV drivers on that site. The sad thing is that I bet none of them have driven a MKV before.:cry: :mad: :thumbdown:

It's quite apparant that some of them may be in over their heads about the MKV. Acting like children i'd say... Exspecially the user who posted about MKV drivers having a lack of security, taste, and the other one. Even though im 16, obnoxious remarks about a burned out clutch is just lame. :thumbdown:

[NaterGator86]

I bet more than a few of those MkV bashers would gladly take a MkV over their Mk4 if they had the cash. Sounds like alot of hatred, perhaps because they can't get a MkV, so hey, "if I bash it enough maybe it will actually be true"!

LoL, just get out and enjoy the drive!
