>> I don't know if any of you out there have experienced the same issues and
>> experience I have had with the Luk clutchs from TRF. Today, I am putting
>> in my 3rd clutch in the 5 years I've owned my 6.
>>
>> I replaced the original clutch with a LUK, when I bought the car in 2000
>> and replaced it again with a LUK in May 2003 when rebuilding the motor,
>> because of a broken finger. I knew it needed replacement at that time
>> due to alot of whistling noise it made.
>>
>> Now, while the tranny is out to replace a rear main seal (also only 2
>> years old and from the same vendor), I find that the clutch needs to be
>> replaced again due to excessive wear on both the pressure plate and
>> flywheel. This time the clutch lasted 2 years and 6500 miles (since the
>> motor re-build).
>>
>> Has anyone come across similar issues with the LUK cluch or do I have to
>> re-examine how I'm using the clutch pedal?
