Excellent - worth mentioning that Dual Mass Flywheels can often be replaced with a solid mass single flywheel as a conversion. Not as smooth running but a lot less problematic
Flywheel can be compared to like the rotors of the brake pads …burnt smell is usually the clutch disc being worn out as the culprit of the problem…unless much grooves or roughness of the flywheel surface then it needs replacement or resurfacing…other than that I would diagnose the clutch disc like the brake pads being 95% cause of the clutch symptoms of slippage every time…good blog! 😊
hello, I have an Audi A4 B9 2018 year with S-Tronic. When in neutral you can hear some noises around gearbox like marbles in a can, especially when it's cold, also noise can be heard when in 1st and 2nd gear and accelerating/braking. When car is cold if you start driving and stop at red light it will start to slowly vibrate more and more and as soon as I put it in neutral it will stop vibrating. When car is hot after long highway ride if you stop at light in drive it will not vibrate (maybe the metal in the flywheel expands and it doesn't shake then ?) This should be a bad flywheel correct ? I don't really want to throw money replacing new one because it costs like 500-750 euro ...
@azzaro316 I'd take it back to the garage and complain. Maybe they haven't done something correctly, or maybe they've installed a single mass flywheel instead of DMF.
What a great informative video… this answered my questions about my Camaro atm
Glad to hear that👍👍

Same problema in my old car sedan Manual Trans
Hi, since the garage changed the flywheel on my audi a3 tdi, I have lot of vibration on cabin .

Hi can I just change the flywheel or do I have to change the clutch aswell
Well, in most cases, you'll want to replace the clutch kit as well, as it's probably past its best years.
Iß there a lincage that can or could come loose
No, but if the car has a dual-mass flywheel, the springs inside it may be loose, which generates rattle while idling in neutral.
