ECS has developed a range of excellent solutions to sloppy, imprecise shift action and clutch feel for your VW. Factory rubber clutch hoses are prone to expansion under the pressure of hard driving and clutch engagement. This expansion can cause the clutch to not disengage properly, making gear changes difficult during quick shifting. ECS Tuning Exact-Fit Clutch Hoses are engineered and assembled with braided stainless steel mesh, offering superior expansion resistance and reinforcement. The resistance to expansion creates a firmer, more direct pedal feel.
