Are s4 and s5 clutches the same? Is the disc the same if not everything else? This is for a turbo II.

But with the matching pressure plate it would work, correct?

wtf? i thought the pressure plates, discs and release bearings and pilot bearings are all the same.



**** then i have a S4 TII disc in my S5 TII car. I know this because the disc won't go all the way to the edge of the pressure plate or the surface or the flywheel.



****.



oh well.

The s4 and s5 clutches are a different size for sure, Miek and I were just discussing it a few days ago, the s5 t2 clutch costs me about twice as much to get as the s4, which is eve stranger. I think you can use the s4 on the s5, but not the s5 on the s4 because the disc will more then likely end up being too big, but not 100% sure.
