I've been searching the forum's quite a bit and I'm getting mixed answers about the right clutch for the S4. I'm seeing that LUKs website sais the right clutch kit for the S4/S6 is 02-025. I know there have been problems with broken transmissions and I just want to make sure I'm getting the right kit so my car doesn't have to be down for a week while i get the right clutch. 025 or 026?

The DXR is not listed online, but it's built to hold 400+ CHP and has similar pedal effort to stock. Nick ran this in his GT35R wagon with no slip.
Southbend also supplies a nice Sachs throwout bearing with their clutch kits. This is exactly the same as 034's "metal backed" $55 bearing.

pressure plate is too big, ripped a chunk of the oil pan and swiss cheesed my transmission
i'm not the only one from this forum that had damaged the tranny with this clutch kit, do a quick search and you'll see
I believe 6 other people complained about this but LUK said they never had a claim, the product is flawless and that it's all in my mind.
want my advice?
skip! big time!
i have a South Bend Rally Stage 1 kit in it now and it's wonderful.<ul><li><a href="http://good-times.webshots.com/album/562889770xtSAzl">pictures</a></li></ul>

Yeah, I definitely dont feel like getting another transmission. I ordered a 02-025 from autozone and if it doesn't look like the one I pull out I'm gonna return it and go for that southbend unit. LUK's website is now showing the 025 kit for all urS4/S6s so maybe they finally got the hint.

ensation those who bought the 026. That said, the 026 was quite obviously not the same as the OE unit and an astute mechanic would not have installed the 026 in the first place.
