Hi all,
This is a very useful forum. I have read many previous discussions on how to preserve the DMF and I have noted that petrol engines are less likely to suffer from a DMF fail due to the lower vibration and "sound" travel.
Out of curiosity I fired two emails, one to VW and one to Skoda, enquiring whether the Golf VI and the Yeti have DMFs, however the replies that came back were as follows:
Golf VI 1.2 TSI - Single Mass Flywheel
Yeti 1.2 TSI - Dual Mass Flywheel
Now, as far as I am concern, the are the same car, and I don't see VW offering two types of gearbox/flywheel/clutch as the reason for acquiring Seat, Skoda and Audi (not quite so much Bugatti and Bentley) were to save cost and having different parts on the same car defies the reason for this.
If anything, I would expect the Skoda with the more basic SMF. Could anyone confirm my findings, as I find this really strange. Of course, there is a possibility one of the party has given me the wrong answer.
Best,
Yeti_Man
