About this part

Product Details

This is the Clutch Masters FX350 clutch kit for your 2010-2011 Audi A3 with the 2.0L TDI engine and the 02Q 6-speed manual transmission. If you're looking to upgrade your clutch to handle more power or simply replace a worn-out unit with something more robust, this kit is a solid choice. It's designed to manage up to 400 foot-pounds of torque, making it suitable for modified vehicles or those that see demanding use.

The FX350 is a performance-oriented clutch that uses a sprung, multi-plate disc design. This means it offers a good balance between holding power and drivability, aiming to keep engagement relatively smooth for a performance clutch. The sprung hub on the disc helps absorb some of the shock and vibration that can come with higher torque applications, which can make it more comfortable for daily driving compared to a solid disc setup. Clutch Masters uses well-built components throughout the kit, including a pressure plate and a pilot bearing, ensuring everything works together as intended.

When installing this clutch kit, it's important to follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully. Proper break-in procedures are crucial for the longevity and performance of any new clutch. Ensure your flywheel is in good condition; resurfacing or replacing it is often recommended when installing a new clutch to ensure optimal performance and prevent premature wear. This kit is designed as a direct replacement for the factory clutch, simplifying the installation process.
