My Personal choice is Borg & Beck, who might now be part of another company who's name I don't recall.

But I understand there is a H/D option for the TDi, no brainer, fit that ;)

Borg & Beck are now owned by AP Driveline. You can fit a 130 clutch plate, which is a heavy duty item - made by Valeo. It's a straight swap for your old plate, so no mods needed to fit it.

Who are, in turn, owned by Magal  :roll:

Valeo make good clutches IMHO. Borg & Beck are not as good as they used to be in my view. Conversely, QH is getting much better!

Dlephi, that's the name I couldn't remember.  Last time I bought a B&B clutch it had DELPHI on the box too.

They're probably all the same thing nowadyas anyway, and I agree B&B are not what they were.  One reason I'd like to go auto.
