What is the main difference between this Stage 2 clutch and a stock clutch?

This Stage 2 clutch kit offers increased torque capacity and a firmer engagement compared to your original clutch. It's designed to handle more power, making it a good choice for modified vehicles or drivers seeking a more direct feel.

Does this clutch kit come with a new flywheel?

This SPEC clutch kit includes the clutch disc and pressure plate, but typically does not include a new flywheel. It is highly recommended to resurface or replace your existing flywheel during clutch installation for optimal performance and longevity.

What is the benefit of a sprung hub clutch disc?

A sprung hub clutch disc has springs that help absorb torsional vibrations and shock loads from the engine. This can lead to a smoother engagement and reduce stress on the drivetrain, especially with a higher-performance clutch.

About this part

Product Details

This SPEC Stage 2 clutch kit, part number SE942, is built for your 2003-2005 Mercedes-Benz C230 and also fits the 2001-2003 C240. If you're looking to handle more power or simply want a more robust clutch for spirited driving, this kit is a solid option. It's a step up from the stock clutch, offering better engagement and the ability to hold more torque, making it suitable for modified engines or just a more responsive feel.

The Stage 2 kit features a performance-oriented sprung hub disc, which helps to absorb some of the shock and vibration that can come with a stiffer clutch setup. This means you get improved holding capacity without the harshness you might expect from a solid-hub design. The pressure plate is engineered for increased clamping force, ensuring that the clutch disc stays firmly engaged even under higher engine loads. This kit includes the necessary components to replace your worn-out clutch, providing a complete solution for a significant upgrade.

When installing this clutch kit, it's important to resurface or replace your flywheel to ensure proper clutch engagement and longevity. Always refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for specific details and torque specifications. This kit is a popular choice for C230 and C240 owners looking for a noticeable improvement in clutch performance and reliability.
