Since my dual-mass flywheel can no longer handle the torque of my chipped AFN engine.
I probably need to install a more powerful combination.

Where can I get something like that? Or would a ZMS clutch kit with clutch disc and pressure plate from one of the PDI models, for example the 115 HP or 130 HP (AJM/AWX) models, even fit?

The following text refers to a vehicle:
Passat 3B Estate/Wagon, manufactured in 1998.
Engine: AFN, 110 horsepower.

Thank you in advance!

Hello,
I faced a similar problem. Ultimately, I decided against a dual-mass flywheel (DMF) and instead installed a solid flywheel from a 1Z model, along with a reinforced Sachs clutch from a VR6.

tztttz, I'm always surprised by what can be put together and still work within the corporation icon_wink.gif.

What about running smoothness and vibrations now?

"The running smoothness and vibrations are basically okay; it doesn't get much worse. However, you definitely notice the single-mass flywheel when starting from a standstill... it's not as smooth, and there's more jolting. Once the car is rolling, it doesn't matter much... you get used to it quickly."
"Next time, I'd let the single-mass flywheel spin a bit more. The single-mass flywheels from the VR6 or G60 engines have a slightly higher mass than the dual-mass flywheel – you can definitely feel the difference. The standard G60 clutch will hold up to about 300 Nm; beyond that, you should use a reinforced clutch specifically designed for VR6 or G60 engines from Sachs or Spec. But avoid sinter metal clutches; you can't have those ground down, and they'll wear out quickly in everyday use!"

I still have a single-mass flywheel (SMF) from a Golf IV ALH here, but I'm not sure if it will fit your car.
Golf IV - ALH - Erstzulassung 9/99
