Default New clutch and flywheel bed-in?

Hi all,

are there specific procedures to break-in / bed in a new clutch, pressure plate and dual-mass flywheel? If so how is it best done?

No real break-in is needed -- just drive it normally.

Hi Kal,
You can do it the easy, conventional way that works - as Chris describes .... or alternatively, coherce some sweet young gal who has never driven a Porsche to take it for a test drive .... wearing 4" heels over 2" platforms. That ought to break it in ....

Thanks Chris,
Garth you're absolutely right, got a house full of high-heel shoes and in that case my advice is to make sure she's got her own ride
