Couldn't justify the $140 for them. Got on ebay and found these:

They look identical, but for $40? I was skeptical...Bought them anyway and look what came in!
Exact same things! For $137 I'd be PO'd...they're just plastic...but for $40...hell, why not!

Got my .:R back from the stealership after spending 1300 bones for new bearings and DSG fluid change. Rear differential is making noise and saying I need a new transmission. They want $11k. :barf: I think it is just the flywheel. Just to give a price difference between here and US, I can get a flywheel for $700. Out here they want over $1600 without labor.
Waiting on my Geomet cross drilled/slotted rotors and my Hawk Ceramic pads from ECS. Can't wait!
if the noise you hear is like a rattle can, then flywheel just needs replacing. don't let them sucker you into a whole new transmission. could you order the flywheel from US, then have it shipped to you to save money?
