Don’t worry you will do double thatGetting nearer to the 300,000
Well it looks today like I can finally join the 200k club not via my TDi 90 which is at 180k but because I have bought a 325k TDi 75. Which I believe is running on the factory clutch, it hasn’t been changed by the owner of 15 years anyway. And it’s driving fine. Simply amazing.

That is no surprise, the clutch I took out of mine at 272K miles had around another 100K mile left on the spinner plate New LUK spinner plate had 1.6mm of material to the rivets, at 272K miles there was still 0.6mm leftWell it looks today like I can finally join the 200k club not via my TDi 90 which is at 180k but because I have bought a 325k TDi 75.

The release bearing cried enough killing the clutch
And an automatic entry into 3rd place (albeit only 1k miles behind 2nd).
Do another 24k miles in it and you'll be our record holder in original engine.
In fact I’m 55 miles from 328000

Oh, got 180k before I had to rebuild the alternator...Wow!!! I’m at 303k and well and truly outdone?!
Did you do the oil pump chain yourself? I’m wondering when mine will need it and how much hassle it is - so far all work is done by me...
