Owner reviews for flywheel

I bought an OEM Luk flywheel ($500) and OEM Luk clutch ($250) from eBay. And bolts, bushings, and other required bits for like $150. I brought it to my local Euro shop and they did everything for around ~$700, and that included changing the center support bearing, guibo, transmission mounts, shifter bushings, etc. This was on an E92 but I can't imagine an F30 being much different. Also yeah, you should change out the flywheel. Those generally fail before the clutch even does.

LUK invented the flywheel and the self adjusting clutch. Only gripe I had when I bought a LUK flywheel for my E46 despite looking identical to the original one it was 1kg heavier, it also had balancing weights with on whereas the original bmw one didn’t.

Valeo has a single mass flywheel kit that's within factory specs and should be right around $500 usd

Everything went together without much issue. I used a Luk OEM dual mass flywheel along with the TT-RS disc and pressure plate. Had to drill out the holes for the dowels on the pressure plate just a bit but other than that, no surprises.

I believe I've found the correct one on amazon (Part # NFW7206) from the Sachs store.

I got one like this for my 6-speed. Rockauto Valeo single mass FW

I have the Exedy stage one clutch and flywheel combo. My old clutch began slipping (130k miles) and I’m super happy with the lightweight flywheel. It does has transmission chatter which isn’t terrible but noticeable. It is a lot quicker and the clutch grabs hard with a little bit of a stiffer petal. If it’s hard to shift in certain gears think about adjusting the CMC. The Exedy oem clutch is also really good. IMO flywheel is very much worth it if you don’t mind some cabin noise.

I have this flywheel, there is no chatter when driving the car for only 30min but when taking a long trip and everything heats up it does chatter unfortunately...

Very poor experience with this company.

Short – I ordered a flywheel for a ford focus on their website. Their website said in nice green print “This fits your: 2013 FORD FOCUS”. It actually doesn’t, instead you have to sort through the fine print of the part to discover that it only fits the ST Turbocharged.

That is extremely high! The labor time is 9.2 hours. Bolts from the dealerships are always out of line. You can purchase a dual mass flywheel kit for $1100, if that what the factory one is. Sachs makes some clutch kits with a flywheel that sells for $750 online.
