Galaxy 2005 Tdi 115 Clutch Replacement Help

[ianskill]

does anyone have any idea if the 1995-2006 tdi 90/115/130 engines use same clutch?   i ask because i need change mine and the dmf.    on searching on fleebay a few sellers selling AHU code 1995-2000,other sellers are advertising ANU,AHU,AUY 1995-2006 saying fits those codes.  Mine is AUY,but if same as AHU then i can get the kit far cheaper.   I  have sent messages to them but no replies so thought id ask here,  cheers

Early engines didn't have DMF which is why you seen cheaper kits, EG. 1Z & AHU they were fitted to the later engines EG AFN but bear in mind yours is a PD engine 115 AUY

The 1Z & AHU are the 90ps engines of the MK1

There were a few late MK1's with the 90ps ANU pd engine this one is also used in the MK2

 

Looking on VAG cat only the ANU & AUY use the same flywheel

 

Are you sure you want to go down the solid flywheel route, have heard a few regrets where they have changed back to DMF because of vibration and transmission rattle

going to attempt clutch and dual mass tomorrow. dieceded on full kit as clutch was slipping and first gear kept jamming when dipping clutch.  also a lot of judder recently.   after following different threads i see no mention of dropping gear oil.  Is obvious needed to drop oil on these boxes or not? was going to drop it anyway to make sure no surprises in the gear oil.   thanks

Yes you do need to drain the oil otherwise some  will come out when you remove the drive shafts and then be constantly dripping out while manoeuvring the box

thanks for the help.   Gearbox now removed aswell as clutch and flywheel. I inpected spline first on gearbox and has very minimal play side to side but quite a bit back and forth.    The clutch is LUK and badly worn to rivets and snapped half way round so lucky i guess.    The flywheel is sachs which i thought strange,but anyway i have inspected and found as a rough guide from start one tooth to friction of spings is around 18mm,and has play rocking of around 1.2 mm.    I have an LUK guide but not sachs and is it likely to have been changed some point have sachs flywheel and LUK clutch?  thanks
