Hi all,
Just a bit of a review/findings/questions RE the ACT clutch and flywheel kit.
I purchased it online from the US around September 2012 and got it fitted to my 05/06 MPS6 at my mates fathers workshop. From memory, the clutch pedal was extremely heavy and the car would “shudder” if the revs were low. This wasn’t and issue once the car was going, but you can imagine how much fun being stuck in peak hour and/or reversing is.
Also…Vibrations noticably increased should the revs get too low or in the wrong gear.
Fast forward until now and 2 services later (one from a Mazda Dealer and the most recent one yesterday at RAC) noted – clutch pedal heavy and vibrating – recommend replace
I do find the clutch heavy when compared to “normal cars” and I find driving the wifes SP23 clutch on a scale of 1-10 (10 being how heavy my clutch is) rate hers at 1!
But my left leg has either gotten extremely stronger or im just accustomed to how to drive this car that the vibrations rarely happen..
Just wondering if this is a normal effect off fitting an aftermarket clutch and flywheel and if any other MPS6 owners with ACT kits can chime in?
My car other wise is bone stock.
