VW9-XTSS kit highlights an Xtreme pressure plate for intense driving. ACT Xtreme pressure plates feature a unique diaphragm design that improves clamp load, prevents deflection, and extends clutch life. ACT Xtreme improves grip on the flywheel and upgrades torque capacity to over 79% since it’s built with performance premium organic materials with high copper content for better heat transfer and steel-backed lining for greater burst strength and durability. Engagement is fairly quiet, with increased strength and dependability.

Don't forget to upgrade your rear main seal while installing your clutch! 

Why? 

The most common cause of rear main seal failure is a faulty PCV valve. The TSI engine is known to have PCV valve failures, which will cause excess crankcase pressure. This is more pressure than the rear main seal can handle. This can cause check engine lights or mysterious oil leaks. 

- This seal is only accessible once the transmission and flywheel are removed making it a good idea to replace it while installing a new clutch!
