About this part

Product Details

Clutch Masters is well-known for making strong clutch components that can handle more power and offer a more direct feel than stock. This FX100 clutch kit is built for your 1998-2005 Volkswagen Beetle, and it's also a fit for the 1999-2001 Golf and Jetta models with the 2.0L AEG engine. If you're looking to replace a worn-out clutch or want a more responsive pedal feel, this kit is a solid option.

The FX100 kit uses a performance pressure plate that offers a firmer pedal feel, which helps with engagement and makes it easier to find the clutch bite point. It comes with a sprung hub clutch disc that's designed to absorb some of the shock and vibration, making it more comfortable for daily driving than some other performance clutches. This setup is rated to hold up to a certain increase in torque, making it suitable for mild performance upgrades or just a robust replacement for your stock clutch.

When you're installing this kit, remember that it's a good idea to inspect your flywheel for any hot spots or damage. If the flywheel is worn or warped, it's best to have it resurfaced or replaced to ensure the new clutch performs optimally and lasts as long as possible. This kit includes the clutch disc and pressure plate, giving you the essential components for a clutch replacement.
