The mounting holes did not line up and also the cover plate outside diemeter was a about 8mm smaller in diameter than the original.

I also bought a supposedly GTA clutch from EBC and it didnt fit either. Sent it back! I got my clutch from Renault last week for £131 inc. VAT....that was the 'trade' price (I'm on first name terms with Ian at the parts dept now....really I am!!! :twisted: ) and it came with a new thrust bearing.
If you cant get the kind of discount I did, you could try the RAOC or CAR discount.

I've got one here that I'm not going to use for a while as I no longer have to take my gearbox out.

It's the genuine Valeo item with GTA V6 Turbo printed on the side of the box. Includes Cover/Plate/Bearing.

To replace it later will hopefully only cost £99+VAT so if anyone wants to offer near that they can have it.

Available for collection tomorrow if required!

Put it in a tray and tip 2 litres of Pepsi on it, leave it overnight and see how clean it becomes ! :D
