Clutch Masters 17-19 Audi A5 Quattro 2.0L B9 Turbo FX300 Clutch Kit

If you're looking to upgrade the clutch on your 2017-2019 Audi A5 Quattro with the 2.0L B9 Turbo engine, this Clutch Masters FX300 kit is a solid option. This kit is designed to handle more power than the stock clutch, making it a great choice if you've added modifications or simply want a more robust drivetrain component. The FX300 series is known for its ability to hold more torque while still offering a relatively smooth engagement, which is crucial for daily drivability.

Inside this kit, you'll find a performance pressure plate that exerts more clamping force than the factory unit. This increased force is what allows the clutch to handle higher torque loads without slipping. Paired with the FX300 disc, which features a sprung hub design for better dampening and reduced drivetrain shock, you get a clutch that balances performance with comfort. The sprung hub is a notable detail because it helps absorb some of the torsional vibrations that can be harsh on other drivetrain components, especially when you're putting down more power.

When installing a performance clutch like this, it's important to have all the necessary supporting components ready. This kit includes the pressure plate and clutch disc, but you'll also want to consider replacing the pilot bearing and throw-out bearing, as these are often worn and are easily accessible during a clutch job. A new flywheel or resurfacing your existing one is also a critical step for proper clutch engagement and longevity. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for the most accurate procedure and torque specifications to ensure a successful installation and optimal performance from your new Clutch Masters FX300 kit.
