Hi Sean, I ended up finding the LUK 0B2105266T flywheel on ebay for £300 brand new. The garage removed the old clutch and said it was a Sachs after all… but they put the LUK flywheel in with LUK clutch plate kit clutch has been in nearly 12 months or so and all is well! Had timing belt and water pump done at the same time. I did have a bit of trouble after as the garage said they nudged an EGT sensor when removing the clutch assembly. Car ended up going into limp mode with the coil light and DPF warning coming on. New sensor sorted that.

Hi All, I got in contact with Schaefer/LUK and they were no help, wouldn’t give any details… I was curious to see if their aftermarket 0B2105266S equivalent would be a fit, but they were adamant it wasn’t and wouldn’t be under warranty if fitted… they said they don’t manufacture a 0B2105266T for the aftermarket I have asked Vaico for their specs on the flywheel but am yet to hear back. Btw this isn’t an option for their flywheel as it’s around £2k… when I can get the VAG for less…just hoping for some specs to compare to. I haven’t had the flywheel out yet, as it’s not a job i could do personally.. however I would feel confident comparing two against each other if I had them in hand I have just been taking it steady with the car, the slip is occasionally happening in 2nd now so not much time left… there is no rattling or worrying noises… just the slipping and odd judder from 1st gear which can be common. An option I’ve been toying with is buying the VAG flywheel and the 0B2105266S equivalent and comparing when the flywheel is out with the mechanic… would be good to shed some light on it as there isn’t much online. just luck of the draw with this model/time of manufacture by the looks of it! May have to bite the bullet, but I’m not giving up yet 🙂 l will keep you posted! Alex

Hi Gareth, thanks for replying I have been told that only the 0B2105266T fits my engine/gearbox combination… find it hard to believe as that’s likely a rebranded LUK/Sachs that’s already on the market… there are lots of LuK/Sachs DMFs online but the last letter of the equivalent OEM code doesn’t marry up (T)… for example one may be 0B2105266L I know the 0B2105266T is a 280mm flywheel, and Sachs have a 280mm for the CJCB engine… but for a MVS gearbox.. the sachs one is £375 and the 0B2105266T is over £1000 plus VAT… bit of a head scratcher!

Hi All, Has anyone got any experience with the 0B2105266T DMF? Are there any others aftermarket’s out there from Luk or Sachs that will fit other than the VAG labelled 0B2105266T…(it’s far more expensive than any other) Engine is CJCB 2.0tdi and NSX gearbox thanks!
