Engine & Gearbox / Re: Golf gti 8v clutch question
If it's the 020 box, the pressure plate bolts to the crank and the flywheel bolts to the pressure plate. The bolts into the crank are the important ones and a lot of manuals list them as replace every time. The smaller flywheel bolts are generally fine to reuse if the threads are clean and undamaged. Check the Haynes or Bentley for your engine code and torque everything in a cross pattern. After the time you've put into that rebuild I'd personally wait for new crank bolts rather than risk it.

New Members Say Hi! / Bonjour from France
Hello everyone
Antony here, 29, from Normandy in France.
To be upfront, I run garajo.co.uk, a car maintenance and service schedule site with Golf pages from the Mk3 onwards.
The Mk2 is where a lot of it started, and the restoration threads on here are a proper education.
Nice to be here. See you in the threads.
