Hey guys I'm changing the box and clutch on my phase 1 172 Clio and wanted to know opinions on a Borg and beck clutch kit would anyone recommend them?

 

[Ph1 Tom]

Mine is just fine! Had good experience with them in the past too where the types of LUK would slip and the B&B were fine.

Hi Tom, thanks for the reply mate, is yours just a standard Borg and beck? I thought with it bein 'ze Germans' lol the clutch would be mate properly to last

 

[Ph1 Tom]

Yes just the standard B&B one. About £80 off ebay. (I think I found mine cheaper by searching the part number rather than one for a Clio)

 

[Budgie]

Why you wouldn't just spend the extra £20 and get a Valeo, I don't know.

Cheers Tom I'll have a look what part number did you search for just out of interest mate? Because budgie Borg and beck are German and anything that's built German lasts forever lol so now you do know lol

 

[Ph1 Tom]

Why you wouldn't just spend the extra £20 and get a Valeo, I don't know.

Show me the proof its not as good, or even better.

 

[Budgie]

I've no need to.

Nothing wrong with Valeo one at all. Not much more money, so why take the risk,

From my experience with Borg and Beck I've got no need to worry then

 

[craigclio1722000]

Obviously guys the difference between the 2 is nothing apart from the price, I'll be going for the Borg and beck

 

[craigclio1722000]

change of plan guys, just ordered a Valeo clutch kit, my good friends at euro mota parts did me the Valeo for the same price as the Borg and beck result

 

[MartinR]

But i thought you said borg and beck are better because its german??? :-$

 

[craigclio1722000]

Valeo has been recommended by a few thanks Martin.
