Interesting? I bought a used RS4 clutch they advised me not to install it it because of the self adjusters because it may not fit/

VonK :: Retired

When fitting a new clutch plate together with a used SAC pressure plate, the adjuster ring in the pressure plate has to be reset by turning it back as far as it will go. If this is not done, the SAC pressure plate will operate with reduced clamping force, which will cause clutch slip and excessive wear (especially of the clutch plate). This adjustment is only required when fitting a new clutch plate together with a used SAC pressure plate, as above.

Do not use force when performing the following steps, otherwise the forks on the adjuster ring can break off.- Apply two screwdrivers to forks on adjuster ring. Use press to compress pressure plate until it is just possible to move adjuster ring.
- Using two screwdrivers, turn back adjuster ring evenly in direction of arrows until it reaches stop.
- Hold adjuster ring against stop and reduce pressure exerted by press so that adjuster ring is held in this position.
