Ur quattro clutch

[Khanlad]

Im at the start of putting my 1982 wr quattro back together. At the moment im at the searching and pricing up parts stage, i know i need a clutch ( it was slipping before it came off the road, ) and was stuggling to find any of the bigger parts supplier that still stocks them. Ive spoken to pete at quattro corner and he tells me he has 2 left after that he cant get them. So my question is what are people using or going to use if an original one is unobtainable?

Newsh was looking for one last week and ended up getting one from Autodoc in Germany. I suggest you buy one from Pete if he still has them as I have experienced very poor after sales from Autodoc.

Ive had a few bits from them no problem at all, they were listing just the plate but thats gone out of stock too now. I was thinking about biting the bullet and getting one from Pete but im probably 12/18 months from needing it and a £360 clutch in a box seems a bit of a luxury? Guess i may have to have a rethink?

If it's just the plate you need, you can probably get one re-lined.

There was a company close to me who quoted around £80 to re-line the friction plate. There will likely be a similar outfit close to you who can quote.
