Action Clutch 98-03 Audi A3 1.8L Turbo FWD Stage 4 Clutch Kit (1MD) w/Lightened Flywheel

The Action Clutch Stage 4 (1MD) Clutch Kit is engineered for demanding conditions and high performance. It features a heavy-duty single diaphragm pressure plate, reinforced drive straps, and an unsprung MIBA Ceramic disc (available in 4 or 6 puck options). This kit prioritizes peak performance and extreme durability for low to mild horsepower vehicles. The unsprung MIBA Ceramic clutch provides quicker engagement and may introduce some clutch chatter, which should minimize after proper break-in. This kit is ideal for dedicated race vehicles requiring maximum control and power with minimal compromise on reliability.

Each kit undergoes a rigorous quality check by experienced engineers at Action Clutch, ensuring consistent performance.

Important Notes:
Break-in Requirements: 500 street miles, keeping RPMs under 4500, no more than half-throttle, and no boost (if applicable). Proper break-in is essential for warranty, longevity, and holding capacity.
Disclaimers: Ceramic-based clutch discs increase holding capacity and durability, not necessarily life expectancy. Using ceramic for easy street driving may lead to premature wear due to harsher engagement and higher slip tendency. Unsprung clutch discs are not designed for daily/street use or constant on/off engagement, as this can break the rivets on the clutch disc hub.
High-performance racing component: May be used in dual-purpose vehicles but is not intended as an OEM replacement.
