Hi guys.

i fitted a new clutch to my bravo last summer. it was a LUK one. it has now started to slip and im looking for a new one. dont really want to fit a LUK one as it only lasted a year. valeo has cropped up but some one told me that valeo are fitted is all french cars and they suffer from clutch/gearbox problems so dont really wanna fit that.

any suggestions? need some thing that could maybe handle bigger power as im looking to cam the car next year and with all the mods already im hopin to see 140bhp and that would shred a standard clutch.

any suggestions?

I heard that the LUK clutches were the best ones for the Bravo when I had mine done in the 1.6 I used to drive. I recall reading around on here for a while that's the impression I got. If it's slipping after 1 year perhaps it's been contaminated?

As I've said previously I have seen clutches destroyed in 26 miles of driving,

You really need to see what is wrong with the clutch.

cheers guys. i think its down to how i drove it really.

i did a few track days, etc. might just get another LUK clutch and just not drive as rough...

LUK are a good brand, I've got one on my 1.2.

It's either been fitted or driven wrong !!

That explains everything, I think.

LUK are fitted as original equipment to BMW, Ford etc. Valeo are O.E. for most Fiats. I don't think it's the make of clutch that's to blame.
