Description of Valeo 52255602 Solid Flywheel Conversion

Provides a high performing and efficient solution for replacing the dual mass flywheel (DMF), this innovative solution replaces the DMF with a solid flywheel and places the long travel damper into the clutch disc. Premium Friction Material for Increased Durability: Valeo's enhanced F510 friction material is composed of an organic compound and higher copper content providing better heat dissipation and preventing premature failure. Consistent Driver Comfort: The long travel damper technology consists of a specific friction plate with a higher damper capacity for improved filtration of noise, vibration and harshness maintaining the comfort of the original clutch. Maximum Torque Transfer: Due to the flywheel's solid composition, combined with the increased clamp load of the Clutch Cover (Pressure Plate), this kit is able to increase torque transfer efficiency. Simple Bolt-on Installation: No special tools or pre-loading required.

Good product! - Gearbox and Transmission

This is a great replacement for the VW Dual Mass Flywheel. This is the second one I've bought. No problems installing. I'm glad I used this kit this time. Flywheel failed!

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • All OK

Perfect for 2005 GTI 1.8L Turbo

We used this twin flywheel conversion kit on my son's 2005 VW GTI 1.8L and it works just great! Much better than the factory! I had a local mechanic install it and it saved me a lot of dollars considering the dealer wanted a ridiculous amount.

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Some imperfections

Perfect for my '04 TDI-BEW (pump)

Perfect for my '04 TDI-BEW (pump). Shifts are now really smooth and the engine idles much smoother. My dual mass flywheel was also part of my problem. Hopefully this one also runs 250,000 miles, I just won't wait 10 years to write this review.

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Hard to say

Great kit but not quite like stock.

This set was purchased to replace an old Valeo solid flywheel set which had the pressure plate pins almost completely worn out from a faulty throw-out bearing. It's well built and easy to assemble, but, and that's actually a plus point in my book, the flywheel is over 4 pounds lighter than stock or previous kit, so some of my riding habits need to be adjusted.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • A newer model could have been chosen

AUDI TT mk1 Owner ATTENTION

This kit is incorrectly marked Valeo. The Audi 02M 5 speed gearbox has a 23 tooth input shaft as shown on my old clutch disc from my dual mass flywheel in the first picture. However, this kit comes with a 28 tooth clutch disc (second picture) which is designed for a 6 speed gearbox and will NOT fit a 5 speed gearbox. 6 speed option, kit 52405615.

Pros
  • Good Performance
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous
